Su-bo

As Susan Boyle hysteria sweeps the nation like swine flu, it seems the British public love a home-grown hero. Boyle is the epitome of geek chic. The self-confessed virgin's story is straight out of a Hollywood rom com... Never Been Kissed, 40 Year Old Virgin, She's All That... they all bear striking resemblance to Boyle's transition from laughed-at loner to delicious diva. The rags to riches story of this bonnie lass is pure TV gold, you could see the £ signs appear in Simon's eyes before she'd even reached the chorus.

It's bad enough that her surname sounds like a puss-filled skin abscess but the fact that the whole world knows her sexual history (or lack of it), would be hugely embarrassing to most people. Not Boyle, she knows which side her bread is buttered on and is quickly learning how to lure in the media. She's a cash cow who Simon Cowell is keen to milk.
