Hey, these are the same symptoms dudes show while dating me! No fair!

Simon and Piers tell us how the internet went crazy when Susan sang. And now she’s everywhere! People! Star! Enquirer! Entertainment Weekly! Dog Fancy! The pressure was too much to take, and that’s when the cracks started to show. Susan went on stage in the semis and kinda lost it. She didn’t barf or pull out her hair or anything, she just didn’t hit all the notes. Simon or Piers don’t mention the time that Susan reportedly gave the TV the finger, cursed it out and stormed out of the hotel bar after hearing Piers tell the twelve year old Iranian kid that he was the best in the semi finals, or the time she told the police to fuck off and suck her dick, or the time she cursed out two strangers on the street. That’s kinda why I’m her fan, so I’m annoyed that they left all that out. Who else is gonna tell this cute talented kid to go run into traffic?

He deserved it!

Susan doesn’t mention any of that either, and it’s disappointing. She just says that at the time, she felt very suffocated. I blame the dress.

Who wouldn’t feel suffocated? You’re literally suffocating.

 

There was pressure everywhere! Piers went on a morning talk show and said “If Susan Boyle doesn’t win, I’m a donut.” And if she does, you’re a dough boy. Either way, there will be dough. Mmmmm. Caaaaarbs! Simon went to her dressing room before the finale and told her that she could quit if she wants and since she’s the red hot favorite she could maybe not win. Uh…thanks for the pep talk? She went out and gave it her all, and she looked really relaxed by the time announcing the winner came around:

And the winner is….NOT SUSAN!! Oh shit I forgot that. I totally thought she won. In a way she did. When do you think the next time is that we’ll see these dorks?

200912172046

Simon says that when he looked at Susan after the winner was announced, he saw a look of “now no one will want me” on her face. That’s not the look I see.

200912172045

At least I beat the little Iranian brat.

Susan tells us that she doesn’t remember the days after her loss. So the gaps are filled in with tabloid titles: Susan Axe Threat! Boyling: Susan is Hiding! Susan’s Collapse! Why Boyle’s in Rehab!

    “This should be the album cover”

    I know that people often comment to say something made them spit whatever they were eating/drinking out all over their computer, and that had never happened to me before UNTIL NOW!

    Flipit = my hero!

    You show know better that to attack a person look or weight as an easy way to entertain yourself.

    Your smarter than that, so don’t go for giant fish in the barrel.

    Mean isn’t clever.

    Clinton, I resent the ‘giant fish’ crack.

    I happen to have a giant fish and I can tell you he didn’t choose to be that way. It’s a debilitating disorder with consequences for both his family and society as a whole.

    Besides, this woman only got famous BECAUSE she’s a ugly dumpy troll who sings like 97 percent of the frumpy spinster shower-singers in the world.

    Recognize that when you read one of flipit’s recaps, you are in the presence of a true Artist, the GOD of all recaps.

    So have some respect- put your kipah back on and ask yourself, “What would Jeebus do?”

    Also: PMDD? Huh? Is it contagious?

    Okay, that was hysterical! I was waiting for the mean jokes… but they never came. So, congrats for being really funny without being mean. :)

    FYI, just for the future, Susan Boyle was deprived of oxygen at birth and has brain damage as a result. One of the biggest effects is a problem expressing herself verbally in certain circumstances. So she does have a disability that has significant effects on a daily basis – but she’s done remarkably well anyway. :)

    Thanks for the laughs! :)

    Guys thanks so much for reading! This was a fun one. I think I will write a couple more random shows up this week, so if there’s some crap special or something you wanna see covered (that’s not two hours) tell me here in the comments and I will get on it.
    As for being rude about fat, yes I get that it’s offensive and low brow. There’s a fine line between being fun evil and evil hell evil evil. If I crossed it a little, I apologize, but man we haven’t really let Susan Boyle have it yet on TVGasm and I thought it might hurt her feelings to be left out. Ha. I am making no sense. Thanks again for reading, and get your recap requests in fast if you have them. xo

    Guess I’m tardy to the party!!! I love your xmas bon mots, Flip!!! You’re ever so graciously kind to us here gasmi!!! I’m very excited to have someone almost 50 break records for sales . . . . Go S-bo!!!!

    And Flip it, be honest, did you get the CD?! I haven’t but I thought the snippet of Wild Horses was B-U-tiful, and I sent it to me mom’s for xmas, she likes all that show tune stuff. Me, I just keep getting punches in my gay card, going all the way back to the classic musicals, but collecting more for Chicago, and Moulin Rouge and soon to be Nine . . . what kinda gay am i?

    If I think of any specials, I shall return!

    XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

    Holy Crap, Flipit! I wish I had read this on Monday when I was in a craptacular mood! You are so fucking funny I just gave myself a disability from laughing so hard.

    I freaking LOVE Chess!!! Did you know the guys from ABBA wrote the music? You probably did.

    Anyway, thanks for giving my stonach a workout – now I can skip the situps and go stuff MY fat face!

    Love You!

    Oh Flipines, the line “Watch out. You’re hair’s about to bite your forehead off” cracked me up and I couldn’t laugh out loud because hubby is snoozing next to me. I had to LITERALLY cover my mouth with my hand to hold in my giggles.

    After I pressed “submit comment”, the screen popped up to the top of the recap and I saw that Amazon is advertising Susan Boyle’s “The Gift”, her “new album of holiday songs and modern classics”. Wait. Is there such a thing as a modern classic??? Isn’t that an oxymoron?

    Anywhoodle, coinkidinky nonetheless.

    What I want to know is, how did everyone comment on Dec 23, 2009? That is crazay.

    Also…..”One of the biggest effects is a problem expressing herself verbally in certain circumstances. So she does have a disability that has significant effects on a daily basis….”
    If that’s true, then most people I know are disabled. :O

    I loved this! The Rosie and Jack Black references had me dying. And the Little Cesears comment. Ha! All the teens and tweens in my neighborhood come home with small pies and bookbags. Damn you Little Cesears for putting a restaurant in my already obese neighborhood! And for not delivering.

    This is such a classic, it should be viewed every Christmas along with “A Christmas Story”, Rudolph, etc. And I think we as a nation gained weight the moment Susan Boyle came on the scene.

    @Zbird: Thanks! I thought that it might be, but I didn’t see a disclosure anywhere…..and apparently I didn’t read it last year b/c I have no interest in this woman. However I must say, it was quite a hysterical read. I HEART FLIPIT.

    FlipIt, i just found that Cameron Macintosh was found suffocated by a Patti LuPone album cover dressed in a business suit and bruges…ok perhaps i Dreamed a Dream of my own, but it COULD have happened…

    You are the funny MASTER! Kudos! As a large teethed Brit myself, i’m proud of Susan and her disability (oxygen deprivation, yup that’s about as English as it gets-soccer balls to the head during PE) and it gives hope to us aesthetically-challenged, well spoken English folk (until you hear someone from Blackburn talk)

    “Then Simon gave her that same look he gave Fantasia when she showed up back on American Idol cracked out and dressed like Ronald McDonald to sing some super crappy song off of her second album fail.”

    I remember that so vividly!! It’s one of those things when I’m old and senile I’ll still remember, but not my kids’ names.

    So wait, we’re still supposed to care about Susan Boyle? Are there fans of this woman? Who really buys / downloads her music? I just don’t get it. She’s as if Blues Traveler featured themselves in the Runaround video.
