SUSAN Boyle lost weight during her instant rise to fame — because she couldn’t bring herself to eat.

The Scottish singing sensation — who became a worldwide sensation after appearing on Simon Cowell’s UK TV show Britain’s Got Talent — admits the pressures of superstardom affected her appetite, leaving her on the verge of an emotional breakdown.

“I hadn’t eaten properly for about a week, hadn’t slept properly,” she says. “It was like looking at everything through a glass, and the feeling was one of extreme exhaustion that manifested itself in firing off at everyone.”

Boyle — whose lack of love life is almost as famous as her singing — recently revealed that she’s too busy for a boyfriend — and she turned down the chance to find her perfect man on a reality TV show!

“There’s no time for a boyfriend now, I’m far too busy,” Susan, whose debut album hits shelves later this month, told the UK’s OK! magazine.

“There was a TV company that wanted to set me up with a man. Apparently he was a nice man, but I’ve got my living to do now. I don’t mind being friendly, but no marriage plans as yet.”
