Erasing any and all Mrs. Doubtfires.

(Ouch. That was probably more painful to write than seeing the dress she was wearing, sorry.) Every once and awhile, Team Beautiful gets a warning shot fired across the bow that says talent still matters. The ugly truth is that people want Kelly Clarkson behind the voice, not Mrs. Doubtfire. Give Susan Boyle some credit for blowing up on YouTube though. She was different than the trainwrecks you usually see, the ones who think they can sing or the ones with coworkers who really need to be a tad bit more honest with them. (It’s the only reason I watch the American version—the auditions early in the process.)

The ones though who can actually sing but who never get a major shot like this? Good for them and good for her. So now the media will do what it does and follow her until she gets kicked off a later round. For now, enjoy the hype and watch CBS lead off the interview above with “You look beautiful!” Nice. Hey CBS, whatever you do, don’t go out of your way to make her feel less self-conscious or anything. Then, watch the free makeover offers start to roll in as she makes it through the competition. (Hey Dove, here’s your chance to walk the walk.)
