Susan Boyle is feeling the heat of her new-found fame. According to reports, Boyle, who is favored to win this season’s Britain’s Got Talent, had two foul-mouthed tirades including one that involved police.
While watching the show in a hotel bar, the 48-year-old reportedly became angry when judge Piers Morgan complimented 12-year-old contestant Shaheen Jafargholi, telling him his was “the best singing performance we have heard in the semi-finals so far.”
Boyle is accused of sticking two fingers up at a television and shouting ‘f*** off’, before stomping off to her room.
The Britain’s Got Talent finalist was involved in an earlier foul-mouthed outburst outside the Wembley Plaza Hotel. Boyle’s spokesman said she lost her temper after being ‘wound up’ by two strangers. Photographs of the singer show her involved in a heated discussion with police officers outside the hotel.
Wednesday morning on The Early Show Morgan said Susan even threatened to leave the show.
“From what I hear, she’s been in tears the last two days. She even threatened to leave the show yesterday at one stage because of the sheer amount of pressure on her,” Morgan told Maggie Rodriguez.
Morgan also discussed Susan Boyle’s semi-final performance, saying, “I think in the end, though, that Susan is quite naturally feeling the pressure herself. It doesn’t really matter what people say to her, she knows that on her semifinal performance, when she sang, she cracked at the start and nearly blew it.”
