Tonight's 6pm BBC news did a follow-up (actually, Channel 4 news are now reporting on how she's an international internet sensation :) on her -- with post-audition interviews.
(Yes, I watched the show when it was first aired -- and couldn't believe Simon Cowell's chutzpah when he said he knew she would be extraordinary. I saw his shocked face. He thought she was going to be extraordinarily awful and was pleasantly flabbergasted.)
I want her to win. I never, ever spend money calling in to support these performers (on this show or any of the other reality shows), but I might break that rule for her.
A lot of people were surprised by Susan Boyle's performance, but she seemed pretty sure of what would come out of her throat. Sure enough to stand unfazed in the face of all the eye-rolling and doubt around her.
