    Honestly I can't see anyone buying an album from Susan Boyle. Shes overrated and is an average singer compared to Paul Potts. If she was that good she would have won.

    It's not something very marketable. It was the same deal with George Sampson, Cowell knew there was little he could do with just a dance act, so he tried to turn him into a singer. But his song panned and now he's kind of in obscurity now.

    opening concerts,or even having their own show

    Julian deserved to be in the final 3, if not final 2. I'm not surprised in the slightest.

    me neither , a beautifull piece of music performed beautifully by a very cool man , he was the only finalist i saw throughout the show and i was rooting for him but having seen DIVERSITY perform thier winning act , i know the best act won , outstandingly awesome

    Diversity with proper planning and a good stage production company behind them could produce their own shows in the same line as Riverdance did just from the Eurovision.
    Whats to stop them creating a show based around a storyline and bringing it to a national theatre or big venue!

    Julian Smith hopefully with get that recording contract. I'd seriously would buy his album.
    I've bought similar before.

    I love to go and see Stavros at a show if they both could make their dancing last about a hour at least :D

    Did you actually watch their performance...comparing them to George Sampson IMO...is a punishable crime.:)

    G.S was a one man act,it takes a lot of talent,practise and discipline to produce such a syncronized and almost flawless performance considering their age difference....those little chaps are not even 10 yet...

    LOL prob' true but by heavens, they were entertaining and thats what makes a great show.

    I have a sneaking suspicion we have not see the last of Stavros. He seems to be a mad, funny character.
    Guest Tv shows will love him.

    They mentioned the other night he had a dvd out that went to number one in the dvd charts in the UK,he has a sell out tour and his actually very brilliant performance at the semi finals last night won't do him any harm. I'm fairly certain he is doing quite well for himself. I read in one of the papers he got a £1million deal with some prodcution company (don't know if it was Simon Cowell's). But I would reckon that is not doing do badly tbh.

    As for the winner,so glad Diversity won,they were really good and was fed up with Susan Boyle at this stage. Stavros were hilarious but I never expected them to get to the last 3 based on the type of act they did,but I though the 12 year old singer shoudl have been in the last 3...Shaeen or something? He was really good.

    Can't believe I am actually posting at length about this,its probably the first time I have posted about a reality tv show because I hate reality tv. It was just the wailing child last night that caught my attention while my parents were watching it,so I watched the finale tonight! :P

    No,don't believe that was ever the case...was only the semi's they had past people on for. Otherwise surely George Sampson would have been performing for the final as he won it last year.

    Susan Boyle 'admitted to clinic'

    Susan Boyle was runner-up in the talent show on Saturday night
    Britain's Got Talent's star Susan Boyle has been admitted to a private London clinic, it is being reported.

    The Sun said the Scottish singer has been admitted to the Priory clinic with exhaustion a day after she was runner-up in ITV1 talent show final.

    Poor woman's burnt out already.
