Susan Boyle has been admitted to the Priory Clinic, because it's claimed, that she is suffering from exhaustion after the relentless pressure she's been under since her singing talent was discovered on ITV's “ Britain's Got Talent.” However, the story is not all about her. Instead the knives are out for ITV producers of the talent show. The Questions being asked are were ITV bosses acting responsibly when they let her sing in the shows final? and “Should the ITV have done more to help what would appear to be delicate person who is not quite ready for all of the public reaction she has received over the last two months.
My question is: Is there really any point to this News Story. When the programmes judges, Cowell, Holden and Morgan heaped praise on her unique talent she must have known if she was able to cope with being in the limelight. Being a modern day recluse she obviously displayed limitations that would be highlighted by the pressures and the expectations from having an extraordinary talent? Why start blaming the ITV for her frailty and why bring in more regulation to stop it from ever happening again. People can be vulnerable, that's what makes us human and we you can't handle singing in front of an audience of 19 million people, I know I couldn't, don't bother, go back to Scotland and look after your cats.
I wish Susan Boyle all the best and I really hope she makes a speedy recovery so she's able to showcase her talent again soon, but lets not start pandering and protecting people who want to pursue fame. It is within them to find the strength to cope with the pressure not for TV producers to hurd weak-minded people on to a show and then be blamed for not looking after their mental state.
