Simon Cowell on Susan Boyle’s Makeover

Simon CowellSimon Cowell can understand why Britain’s Got Talent superstar Susan Boyle decided to get a makeover — because her looks have come under so much scrutiny in recent weeks.

“I think to be fair, first of all she is a woman, and I think anybody who was subject to the kind of comments is going to go, ‘You know what? Maybe I should do something about the way I look,’” Cowell told Entertainment Tonight. “She was probably swooped on by about a million colorists who want to make a name for themselves.”

Susan Boyle“I am tired now of hearing about the way she looks or the kissing or this or that,” Cowell added. “Get yourself together, sweetheart, for the big one, which is the semi-finals. Chose the right song. Focus yourself. Shut your front door and maybe take a holiday and come back as the person you want to be, not the person you think you should be.”

Simon also admits that Boyle’s appearance led him and his fellow judges on BGT to be “completely wrong” in their initial impressions of her.

“We were all guilty of judging her before she sang,” he added. “You watch it back and it is embarrassing. We were completely wrong.”
