Susan Boyle is the definition of an over night success. It's no lie that everyone was laughing at her, including the judges, as she walked on stage for her audition. Even as she confidently and innocently answered the questions asked by the judges people had smirks on their faces ready for a horrible performance, but as soon as she started singing the crowd exploded with applause and cheers because of how amazing she was. After that she became an instant star. She had the tabloids buzzing for weeks!
Unfortunately, the reasons for her being the talk of entertainment world are not for her success, but for her loss on the show as well as her mental breakdown.
Yes Susan Boyle had a mental breakdown shortly after she came second to the dance group, Diversity. She was taken to the Priory, which is a clinic in London that is known for it's celebrity clientele.
According to one of the judges on the show, Piers, Susan had been feeling immensely stressed and sick the week before the show. Maybe the fame came too soon with too much pressure for a simple women like Susan. Her family expects her to recover soon yet her scheduled tours as well as many other things have been put on hold.
