She won hearts for her natural talent, and look — but now there are fears we’ll lose the real Susan.
Surprise singing sensation Susan Boyle, 47, who won hearts all around the world with her angelic voice and unpolished charm, has shocked fans with talk of an image revamp.
The brand new superstar, who leapt from obscurity after her stunning TV performance on Britain’s Got Talent, has gone from unemployment to internet phenomenon in just one week. But now, after more than 100 million views of her performance on the Web, the sweet-natured Scot admits she is already feeling the pressure to change her appearance in her quest to win the competition.
“I will need to sort out my dress sense and my weight,” she told the UK’s Daily Mirror, as she left her home barely recognisable in a funky new leather jacket and sporting a slick new hairdo.
“It wasn’t until I saw myself on TV that I realised how frumpy I was,” she says. “It doesn’t worry me too much — but I will be doing a bit more exercise. When there is this much attention on you, you have to look your best.”
A rep for the show confirmed to In Touch magazine, “We will be making [Susan] over on the show.”
While Susan assures fans there will be no extreme makeovers, saying, “I would not go in for Botox or anything like that,” there are fears that any image change will upset Susan’s millions of fans, who have embraced her for her homely, unstyled charm and ample inner beauty.
“For now I’m happy the way I am — short and plump,” Susan declared following her first performance on the show. “What’s wrong with looking like Susan Boyle?”
