In a startling twist of events, ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ much vouched contender, Susan Boyle, despite her thumping feat of her original ‘I Dreamed a Dream’, could not conjugate public votes enough and came second to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Diversity.
A Scottish Church helper, Susan Boyle graciously accepted defeat professing that the best team won. With the media constantly vouching that Susan was the most eligible runner to win the title, the public votes took a totally U-turn with bringing to the fore the unanticipated all-boy dance troupe, Diversity. Though the 48-yr old spinster with an astral voice and vague dressing sense knocked the socks off many a listener and proved a point that external appearances don’t make the complete person. The press seems to have played her down with negative news, gossip which was utterly baseless.
One simply cannot take away from the remarkable effort put up by the group of young kids, Diversity, who have successfully orchestrated pulse-throbbing dance moves into their group performance.
This disturbing trend seems to recurring at a prompt pace with the media and judge’s favourite, Adam Lambert who lost out in American Idol. There were news of his sexual lineage, his shocking, cheesy behaviour on the show and unwanted photography might have let off a certain batch of ordinary mainstream people. Still, it doesn’t draw away from the fact that he was a superlative vocalist, a well-rounded, captivating, performer and extremely popular with a great fan base in Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Even hard-to-crack judge, Simon was recalled saying that Adam was the international super star that American Idol was on a hunt for so long, though flawed voting did finally take its toll, with Kris emerging the winner.
The commonality in the case of Susan Boyle and Adam Lambert is their image being incessantly being paraded by the media and judges to the public, as to whom they should go for. This seems to have had a negative impact with the public votes lining up in the favour of the opposite side.
Adam is already an icon to reckon with, with many lining up for his releases and Susan who seems to have generated immense uproar with her loss, which will eventually catapult her to greater popularity and success than ever before.

Susan Boyle’s ‘I Dreamed a Dream’ was amaaazing. I think the polls were rigged due to her non commercialy viable appearnce.
She should have won she had the best voice.
