Britain’s Got Talent’s top acts threaten to quit over Boyle’s winning odds
London, Apr 29: The top acts of ITV1 show Britain’s Got Talent have threatened to quit over fears that Scottish singer Susan Boyle has already won.
Boyle, 48, has become a worldwide star following her appearance on the show, and now her rivals fear they don’t stand a chance against her and have considered pulling out of the show as they feel it’s a “done deal”.
“I don’t think I can compete with Susan – I feel no-one else has a chance. She’s captured the world’s imagination,” the Daily Star quoted saxophone player Julian Smith, 40, as saying.
Another act added: “Everybody keeps saying the show must go on, but it’s pretty tough being in a competition when everybody knows the winner already.”
But show judge Piers Morgan, 44, has on April 28 told the competitors not to be too hasty as he strongly believes the competition is still wide open.
“I think Hollie can beat Susan. And so can Shaheen from last week. So can a few other acts you haven’t even seen yet,” he wrote on his blog.
Even Hollywood actress Demi Moore, 46, believes the show is not over yet, especially after she saw 10-year-old Hollie Steel’s amazing performance on YouTube.
“Just seen Hollie. Wow, the talent keeps on coming. More competition for Susan,” Moore wrote on her Twitter site. (ANI)
