Who’s that brown-haired lady sashaying through the streets of Scotland?

It’s Susan Boyle!

Yes, folks, the Britain’s Got Talent! YouTube sensation has done away with her salt-and-pepper flyaway ’do.

However, a rep for the show insists the cosmetic changes are not something new for Ms. Boyle. In other words, she’s not being put through some sort of insta-celebrity-induced beauty overhaul.

"Her sisters took her to her local salon where she had her monthly trim and a wash in and wash out color put on,” the show’s rep just emailed me. “That is all.”

British newspapers report that Boyle visited the Miss Toner salon near her home in Blackburn, Scotland. The hair job cost $51 and eyebrow pluck about $7, according to the Evening Standard.

The supposed leather jacket she’s been sporting these days turns out to be a $23 PETA-friendly fake from a discount clothing chain.

Boyle did receive true Hollywood treatment when she was in the salon. Just like they do at some stores along L.A.’s über-trendy Robertson Boulevard, window shades at Miss Toner’s were pulled down to keep Boyle away from prying eyes—and paparazzi.

DailyMakeover.com recently presented a couple of computer-generated makeover possibilities for Ms. Boyle. A survey by the beauty website revealed that most people agree with what I said in my videoblog yesterday—some sort of makeover is in order for the rising star. No, nothing radical. Is there really anything wrong with a little stylin' here and there?

So what do you all think of Boyle's spiffed-up look? Let the beauty battles begin!

I think she looks great!

I think she looks great!

think she was born with the potential to be attractive. Perhaps her self-esteem will improve now and all she will simply need to do is allow her hair to grow somehwhere around shoulder length, where it can be reasonably stiled. Also, lose some weight. This will rid her of her double chin and 'frumpy' appearence. After all, she was a sort of slave most of her life to her parents. taking care of them. Had little or no time left for herself.
Anyhow, I wish her the best. I will say again that I would like to hear her sing more songs. 'Cry Me a River" Is Good! Hope she can find a honest and caring Agent.


Tis truly said, thou art indeed a gentleman of the old school. My compliments my good man.

What makes you say that? All she did was get her hair colored a bit and styled and trimmed her eyebrows. I didn't think she looked "bad" to begin with, but I think it's a great improvement. Most women do the same "treatments" anyways, so it's nothing all that far out or out of the ordinary. She is maybe just taking care of herself and her apperanace a bit more and I think that's a positve thing, just for herself alone. I bet she feels great about it too. All women deserve to feel good when they look in the mirror and feel special in some way.

hehehe.. now she gives me flashbacks to a friend my parents had when I was a kid. Nice enough lady, sweet as can be, but she'd pinch the heck out of my cheeks. She'd make me hug her which was an experience that would make water boarding seem very tame. Then came the living nightmare, she'd have to kiss me, right smack on the lips, and God bless her, she had breath that could register on a geiger counter. Which now I know she gave me the hug first on purpose so I'd be out of breath with choice but to breath in when the kiss came. It was horrible. For years I'd lose dates because I'd sniff their mouths before I'd kiss them. It's funny now, but a true story none the less.

that's really strange... I had a experience with a family of nudist that lived on the street behind us. They had a big house and yard and it was surrounded by a very high and dense bamboo thicket. I would go over there to play as they seemed like nice folks, even though they ran around naked out in the yard, most of the time. There was the Mom and Dad and a daughter. Seems like I remember that she was probably in her mid twenties. They were people of German descent. I think he was a dentist - he was Doctor ------- [somebody]. This girl was big and attractive. She used to lay me on top of her out on the lawn, like playing. I was about six. I didn't think anything was unusual about this. In later years I had a couple of hmmmmm moments... Later, she was going to new york city and wanted to take me along on the trip. My parents nixxed that!

Nope, I just think that he ran into my aunt. She used to do that very same thing to me. And to top it off she used to smell like she took a bath in the worst smelling perfume in the wold. You could not only smell her a block away when she was coming, but the smell lingered on for days it seemed and made us all sick. But the old gal did have a heart of gold.

strong perfume is a dead give away of frequent avoidance of soap and water! But, as you implied, doesn't necessarily 'measure' the nature of such a person.
Brings to mind many years ago [long lead-up story which I wont go into, but those were such very interesting years - I don't think that they will ever be again]... Anyhow, this man that had a distant affiliation to my father who helped him 'find himself again, after he lost all his wealth in the depression of '28; he would show up occasionally at our home. He was a very tall and big man [moreso to little kids - grown adults often appear as giants to little children] It seemed now that he was a 'Peddler', which means that he mad money off the street in any way possible, aside from being involved in illegal things. He would appear out of nowhere, often wearing a large and heavy coat. Inside of this coat were many, many pockets. In these pockets he usually had stuffed into them various candies and cheap, interesting novelty items. In those times there were a lot of these. This due to the times and the war and the economy being sorely depressed. Today, if one has any of thee 'cheap' items, they are so unique that they would bring something like perhaps $50.00 now, for something that cost .05 cents then. Anyhow, he would bend over to our height and allow us to rummage these pockets until we found something we liked. THen, one day, he never came again and I grew up. But somehow, from times to time, as now, I still remember him; his name: 'Paul Tiddlesome'... Interesting about those things, how, out of so many life experiences certain things as this stay with one through a lifetime. I will have to say that there is some signifigance there to such situations, although I seldom can answer why?
