I have it on good authority that 'Britain's Got Talent' star has either been cast or is in the process of being cast in 'Love Never Dies' the sequel to ALW 'Phantom of The Opera' thanks to a friend at Her Majesty's Theatre who shall not be named.
Boyle came to the limelight after she performed on 'Britain's Got Talent' and 'WOWED' audiences with a rendition of 'I Dreamed A Dream' from 'Les Miserables'. Now I don't dislike the woman, I just think she is being celebrated for looking like a doner kebab bathed in custard and having the vocal ability of any elderly female in a town choir.
Is this all part of the industries reach out programme to the general public? Lets put a celebrity in a production and we'll have them cueing down the street for returns! It has been seen on many productions as of late, Chicago is notoriously known to star washed up Z-List celebrites; recently Jerry Springer has headlined and when you're getting a washed up talk show host to star in a west end production you KNOW things are dire.
The fact is there is plently of talent being processed through our conservatoirs to fill the entire city of London. Get the 'pop idols' off the pedestal and start putting some REAL talent on show - after all we paid for it!
