She's Got Talent

I'm sure you all know about Susan Boyle right now (the lady who tried out for Britain's Got Talent). She's amazing, she really is.

But it's just stupid how hyped up people are about it now.

A woman who isn't exactly supermodel material can sing like a Broadway star. So what? Are they trying to say that ugly people don't have talents? I thought it was so insulting the way the judges and the audience were like "OMG" when she started singing. And how people are asking if she'll get a makeover or whatever.

Which only shows how shallow our society is. Ever since middle school, we pretty much learn that beauty=popularity.

But you know what? No one is beautiful forever. They're going to get old and wrinkly just like everyone else. All those models that make millions by wearing bizzare clothing (honestly, who wears that out in public?) and having their pictures taken so they can be on the cover of a magazine? They'll get old too. And then they'll be exactly like the rest of us, except it's probably worse because they'll have been stunning at some point in their life.

But who cares? It doesn't make them better people.

Susan Boyle deserves some respect. Let's give it to her now.
