BAFTA Nominee Natalie Holt Throws Eggs At Simon Cowell On Live Television

Natalie has apologized and no further action is being taken. Apparently she and Simon might have a history together.

Jonathan Antoine Is Amazing

The producers at Britain's Got Talent, know how to sucker in an audience and get them watching. They have taken the formula before of using someone who you would never expect to be amazing and then have them deliver a jaw dropping performance which then makes them a crowd favorite and has everyone tuning in. Jonathan Antoine is that person this year. Amazing. Spectacular. Watch it and share it with your friends.

The Hoff Gets Fired


Apparently Britain does not love David Hasselhoff. Well, except for female 20 something old shop workers who have a fetish for alcohol breath. Producers of Britain's Got Talent fired The Hoff after the ratings for the show dropped so much they wondered if anyone was actually watching the program. It was awful and they blamed it all on The Hoff. I don't know if he is the best judge of talent, but I'm not sure it was just his fault. He was supposed to replace Simon Cowell and they are nothing alike. I watched one episode and there just was no chemistry between any of the judges. Perhaps they should fire them all and then just have three monkeys on the panel and they randomly press the red buzzer.

Nursery Rhymes Never Sounded So Good

If you are wondering what CD to buy your child or intended newborn, you may want to hold off for a few months. Edward Reid was a contestant on Britain's Got Talent over the weekend and the guy sang nursery rhymes in a way you have never heard before. I don't know if he can't remember the words to regular songs or what, but this is pretty phenomenal.

Tina & Chandi - Britain's Got Talent

I can't help it. I am addicted to Britain's Got Talent. From Simon to Amanda to Piers to Dec and Ant it is a great show. I finally figured out a way to watch it each week and last night was the premiere. If you love dogs and want to say awwww about a million times, you need to watch this video.

Susan Boyle Cancels A Few More Shows


After hearing about the fact that Susan Boyle needs more rest days after just performing for six minutes in the past four days, I really am starting to wonder if maybe she should just go on home to Edinburgh and call it a career. Oh, I think she can record some albums because they can do it on her time and work around her needs, but it's pretty obvious that this is someone who doesn't need to be performing full-time or even once a year.

The latest incident allegedly involved Susan standing on her balcony at a hotel and crying and screaming for her cat all night and how she needed her cat. The tour then promptly decided she should have the next few nights off. I think she should just call it off for good. I also start to wonder about reports that Simon Cowell is trying to set her up for a Las Vegas run of shows and whether he is really that greedy or if the reports are false. If she does a series of shows in Las Vegas, it will push her off the edge. She can't do them. There is absolutely no way. They would require at least 60 minutes of singing and probably closer to 90 and she would have to do it several times a week. It would be a disaster.

I know she has a record deal. Great. Go home and record some music once or twice a month and just keep releasing album after album. She would get to sing and I don't have to worry about her health everyday and what is going to happen to her.

Susan Boyle News


So, apparently when you live in the world of Susan Boyle, trying to perform on three consecutive nights is not going to happen. As a result fans in Manchester who wanted to see her perform didn't get the chance on the Britain's Got Talent Tour. Now, I totally understand needing a night off after you have performed for a few nights in a row and I know she is still recovering, but I also wonder about a couple of things. The first is that she is only singing two songs. She stands there and sings for six minutes. Is that really that impossible to do? Six minutes of standing there? OK, so you say she is under a great deal of pressure. Fine. But at the same time she can't perform for six minutes more than two nights in a row she has booked several shows where she is going to have to perform for 12 minutes and she is going to get paid almost $200,000 for those 12 minutes. That is $1M an hour which is about what Mariah Carey charges. Seriously.

Susan has talent, but she doesn't have Mariah talent. I find it stunning to believe that people are willing to pay her $1M an hour to perform. Well not for an hour because she can't go longer than 12 minutes. But still, at that rate anyway. I also feel sorry for people who buy tickets for this tour she is on, expecting her to be there, and then maybe she will be and maybe she won't. I want to feel sorry for her and everything she has been through and I want her to be healthy, and at the same time I can't believe people are willing to pay her that much money to show up and sing a couple of show tunes.

Diversity Beats Susan Boyle

By now you probably have heard that Susan Boyle got beat in the finals of Britain's Got Talent and checked herself into a hospital. I really am afraid that maybe a singing career might not be the career for her. I realize there is a lot of money in her future, but I'm wondering if it is worth driving yourself mad to get it. Here is the winning performance from the dance group Diversity.
