Piers asks what she wants to do now that she’s famous. She says she wants to snort the Himalayas and shoot hookers for fun. Also, she thanks the fans for all the support. Piers presents her with a Triple Platinum Record!! She cries like he just complimented a child.
And then she sobs. Now I’m getting teary. Wait a second. I don’t see tears! But she’s trying, God bless her.
This is Jordan Spanx crying if I ever saw it. Squeeeeeeze!
The last segment is about how how Susan Boyle is living…wait for it…HER DREAM! Susan’s on a plane! Susan’s at a photoshoot! Susan’s swallowing a Little Caesar’s Five Dollar Pepperoni Pie whole! Sorry. My dream. This segment is touching, until the moment Cameron Mackintosh, the giant Broadway producer, says that no single artist has owned I Dreamed a Dream until Susan. If Cameron Macintosh is found murdered this week, my first guess would be that Patti LuPone did it. And no jury would convict her.
And now for the big finale!! Susan sings Tomorrow from Annie. Or I Dreamed a Dream. With the London Cast of Les Miz! Holy crap that’s cheezy and awesome. Someone’s getting laid tonight. No, not Susan. This guy.
HAWT
The cast does a big number, which is kinda weird, but I suspect Cameron’s paying for this show so give him a little room. The cast clears the stage and Susan comes out looking like she’s gonna kick their asses each individually.
Before
During
After
She sings her little heart out, and I wasn’t sick of this song before this show but I never ever want to hear it again. Good lord make it stop. All in all, a pretty good show! It filled me with hope. Sure I’m in my thirties and I’m chunky and pasty. Those aren’t reasons I can’t one day play the lead in the revival of Miss Saigon. Lea Salonga, eat my dust!!
Thanks for reading you guys, and remember this Christmas season that being a loser is temporary. Sometimes. LOVE
Ronnie Karam has been with TVgasm since 2006 , which has given him the opportunity to make fun of hundreds of TV's most loved and hated reality whores. His plan in life was to be Julia Roberts but that plan was stolen by, well, Julia Roberts. He'll get you one day, JULIA ROBERTS!! When not making himself giggle for the gasm, Ronnie performs improv and sketch comedy at IO West in Hollywood a couple of times weekly while using the lovely California days to audition for commercial roles such as "ADORABLE MEXICAN UNCLE". Seriously. He would like to thank Jesus, Buddha and Xenu for the blessings they've bestowed. The writers here are the best around, and he's honored to be associated with them.

“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
ps. You could document your own xmas celebration, I’m sure that would be a hoot!

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?
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.
