Post by: Turtlejosh on May 24, 2009, 11:46:33 pm: This year has been great, I mean you forget all the dancers, Diversity? Brilliant!

And Susan got through tonight (no suprise) and she was still amazing. The others didn't stand a chance.

Susan is our representative in these dark time's and thiers no regretting that.

And I didnt really like Shaheen that much though, don't know why.

Breakdancing grandad 'a welfare cheat 14:30 AEST Mon May 25 2009 NineMSN News:

"A breakdancing grandfather who wowed judges with his energetic performance on Britain's Got Talent is being investigated for disability welfare fraud.

Fred Bowers, 73, currently receives $446 a week and a free car after telling officials he had an injured left leg, The Sun newspaper reports.

But on Saturday night Mr Bowers appeared on the talent show, where he flipped his legs and spun on his back in front of millions of viewers.

He was voted through to the semi-finals with the show's toughest judge Simon Cowell declaring: "This is why I love doing this show, because of people like you Fred."

Mr Bowers is now in the running for the $203,000 grand prize and an appearance on the Royal Variety Show.

According to The Sun, Mr Bowers receives a $143 disability allowance, a $99 mobility allowance and $203 in income support.

A spokesman from the Department of Work and Pensions said they were investigating Mr Bowers after seeing his performance.

Mr Bowers yesterday defended claims he was a welfare crook, saying his injured left leg did not stop him dancing.

"It’s mostly my back, neck and head that I move so I don’t see what the problem is because it is my leg that's bad," he was quoted as saying.

"I'm not earning a penny through my dancing yet so I don't see the problem until I start earning.

"I'm likely to make a lot of money through my dancing and when I do I'll get in touch with Motability and the payments will stop.

"Somebody is jealous, that's all."

When is the next round for Susan then?

I'm not too sure, but I think it's the final on saturday or sunday? Someone may correct me though :)

And lol he does sound like a bit of an idiot for doing that on public television.

Oh and for those who didn't see her:

Post by: Alex on May 25, 2009, 10:08:02 am: Yup, the live final is on Saturday I think, they're got the semi-finals all week.

I'm surprised no-one has mentioned Jamie Pugh, he's amazing:

By the way, has anyone ever heard of 5 semi-finals? xD

Post by: innersouth2020 on May 25, 2009, 01:56:29 pm: Ok, not to sound negative here but didn't anyone else think that Susan Boyles semi final performance was kinda 'meh'.

She starts "Memories" but is out of tune for the first few bars and seems to clutch at her stomach to settle her nerves before finally getting in to the performance but doesn't really sound like she is with it until the final part of the song.

I kinda wonder if maybe I wouldn't have picked her performance apart if she had of stayed hidden from media attention and not done all the interviews etc until the season was over. Perhaps not having such high expectations from her audition and the hype around that.

Just my thoughts.....
Title: Re: Susan Boyle-Britains got talent
Post by: Nude_not_rude on May 25, 2009, 02:17:47 pm: yeah but staying out of media attention is pretty difficult after going on something like a national TV show. I think more power to her. Sure she's no singing genius, but her humbleness and refreshing attitude are well worth the kudos she's getting. Sure many singers would have crumbled after the first couple of bars, but she dug in and went for it. I admire that.

Post by: innersouth2020 on May 25, 2009, 02:26:37 pm: lol..not disagreeing that she isn't talented. Heck knows I sound like a cat being pulled through fence pailings.

Hey Toddo, why dont u upload a vid of you playing and singing on ur piano lol :-)

Ok I have to admit I was biting my tounge on this guy. i thought his audition was something of a nervous person being forced to sing karaoke when not drunk and his performance in the semi final just proved it. :3456789

I think Shaun Smith is a serious contender if he can pull something big in the final to topple Susan Boyle.

DONT READ IF YOU DONT WANT TO KNOW WHO WINS

Well BGT 2009 is over for another year and the winner is DIVERSITY with Susan Boyle coming second.

BGT has an official webpage on Youtube however has limited vids etc so if you wanna see the most of each of the episodes I suggest going to the following;

With all the controversy and media negativity Susan had over the week leading to the final I wonder if it contributed to her not winning the show.

Post by: Turtlejosh on June 01, 2009, 09:12:12 am: In all honesty, after the final, I thought that Stavros Flately was the most entertaining.

Oh dear.

To be honest, we all know Ray should have won...

Post by: Nude_not_rude on June 02, 2009, 01:26:18 am: Hey so now Susan is in hospital for exhaustion. Looks like the media frenzy took it's toll. See it's not nearly as easy as the big stars make it look.
