I watched the show last night. Susan Boyle gave a sensational performance, much better than she did the first time. But Diversity were superb as well. In fact I think all the acts were excellent. But I guess the British public preferred Diversity over Susan Boyle. Probably they should have shown the number of votes each act got so we will know how close they votes are.

Yes Diversity is a dance group made up of guys of different ages, sizes, races, etc, etc. You can find the clips on youtube or from the ITV website.

HI there: I did see them this morning on the news along with Susan's performance I figured they show both of them again; Diversity had a really good number that they had done; it was quite good!!

Hello 2wicelot: I was gonna watch the clip of the show from last night but missed the news this morning, I'll sure I'll find a clip of it here on the web later on when I get done with some other things this morning; I think they said on the news that Diversity was a dance group of some kind right? well no matter she's still THE WINNER for a lot of us, and I do wish her all the best with that beautiful voice of hers; thanks for stopping by;

I don't know how it works in the UK, but many times finalists here will get recording contracts or offers of professional employment because of their talents. If it's anything at all like that there, I'm pretty sure she won't go back to the same old life she had. I wish her well - she had an amazing voice.

Hey Jerz; Yeah I'm a busy woman, fighting like mad here to reach payout (G)!! and too I'm bored out of my tiny mind LOL! I agree I think she will do quite well now for herself so what if she didn't win she's won MILLIONS OF fans with her voice Worldwide and that's all that really counts right?

Hi Sweetie, she might not have won the Contest but she has won and she was the best, she will go far but I hope she rests first as this has certainly tired her out, she might not have won but she has certainly made the News here and elsewhere none of the others did so I will say she is the winner and well done to her, I hope she uses that amazing voice and personality of hers

HI Gabs, how are you sweetheart?? Yes I agree, I missed the performance this morning on the news, I was all set to watch it and had to leave EARLY and head out to the farm, we were cleaning Catfish this morning, only 10 more of them, we cleaned 11 just the other day; But yes I truly do love her voice and later on I plan on doing some searching here on the internet to see and watch her performance last night I'm sure its on here somewhere already.. if you hear of her singing or making a CD of some kind will you post about it here for us? I know there are others here on mylot that also love that voice of hers; I hope you are doing well; Love & hugs to you!!!

Oh crap!!! I was really routing for Susan to win and she seemed to be the real favorite--she got more attention worldwide than any other performer of that show---WHAT were the judges thinking? How unfair---boo hiss on Simon in particular

Hi Pye: I know, I was so hoping she'd win, there are all sorts of articles popping up on the internet now about the show, but so what if she did or maybe didn't make a bit of a blunder singing, I've not watched the video clip, big friggin deal! Her voice just gave me the chills each and every time I heard her sing;

Huh? That is very sad news to hear. She blew me away. Her voice is so powerful and her stage presence is so strong too. I tell you, if they had allowed Americans to vote she may very well would have won! Who won anyway? Purrs, Catwoman=^..^= & Mija

HI KellyJeanne: the people that won was a dance group called Diversity I think that is the correct spelling of them?? Yeah if the Americans had been allowed to vote I'm sure she would have won it then; She is/was AWESOME!!!! America's Got Talent starts up later this month, can't wait for it I love that show! take care!!!

I think it was on youtube where I heard her sing a little bit and she is good. I'm sorry to hear that she lost the talent show, though. You can't win them all. I'm a big singer, myself, and I haven't always won in every contest I've been in. I just hang in there and continue to sing all the time. I 'm sure Susan will do the same. Kathy.

Hey Kathy; aahh so you are a singer too huh?? Got anything on the web?? anything of you on a video clip on you tube?? Another star in the making here?? Come on now don't be shy you can tell me... I love to sing myself here in privacy but I could never ever do something like that in front of an audience much less in front of MILLIONS WORLDWIDE... I'd be a big puddle of goo on the floor...LOL!!

Yes, I'm a singer, too. I'm not shy at all. If you were to ask me to stand up and sing a solo, I would do it. I love to sing! I majored in music (voice) in college. I didn't finish college, though. I made a record one time back in the '70s but it didn't make a hit. I went to Muscle Shoals, Alabama and made this record, as a matter of fact. I wanted to be a professional singer so bad!I don't mean to be negative but it's hard to get a break in the music business. I also auditioned for a job at Opryland three times and never made it. I also auditioned for a job at Six Flags Over Georgia one time and didn't make it. I never did give up, though. I would much rather sing at a place like this than in some nightclub or bar, where most singers get their start. I still sing at one nursing home and one assisted living facility every month. As a matter of fact, I'm going to sing at the nursing home tomorrow. No, I don't have anything on youtube yet. I need to learn how it's done before I can get a video on there. I was new to youtube when I first got this computer in February. I also play the guitar, piano, and harmonica, btw. Kathy.

well you multi-talented woman you: That's amazing!! Have you ever sung at a Wedding for anyone, family or friend? That's nice that you do go out and sing at the places you do, I'm sure they all enjoy seeing and hearing you play, and sing to them; When I was young I had a piano, and I learned to play it, and I also played by ear, I bet I couldn't play chopsticks now its been so many many many years; I miss my piano!!

She didn't need to win. She's already more famous than whoever did win, because I've heard of her, but not the winner.

HI ya Kats; Yeah I know what you mean, for me she is the winner as soon as I heard her belt out that first song she did, OH MY GGGAAWWWDDD!! She still just gives me the "chills" when I hear that voice of hers, truly amazing!! Heck I'd buy her CD or download or watch it on YOU TUBE or where ever..ya know?
