It was more the opposite, she looked like a supermodel and I thought she is one of them, who will also show ugly ducks their places, as many do. I was completely wrong, because she was one of the nicest persons I have ever met. Later on I did an evening school and we had someone in our class, who loved to dress up in Ghotic-look.(I hope it is called like this in English) I liked this guy, because he was the most helpful one, but many avoided him, only because of his looks.

It just struck a nerve when you mentioned animals. As for the topic on hand judgement by aperance is a hard thing to overcome it's almost at the forefront of our thoughts when we see people dress or act out of the total norm. It's often thoes people who we judge that end up teaching us just how wrong we were in our Thoughts. The fact is each & every one of us are born beautiful in every way as we were created by God & Thank GOD Himself For forgiving us for the way we act because judgement twords others we see but don't know is wrong & the lesson seams to always be taught when we take time to get to know a person before casting judgement & usually the person you quietly Judged turns out to be people we can all learn from.

When will people realise, that we all believe in the same things, only that there are humans who claim to be "something chosen" like the pope in Rom. For me the worst lier of all! Even the Church of Ireland do not see the pope as "their boss", or anything else. I am originally from Austria. I do not fear the end and it's "judgement", because when I learned enough, what I had to learn, I have nothing to fear, otherwise I only get "send back" (although I hope last one is not happening). Get rid of your fear and you will see, how many want people keep in fear, so that they can control them better. Look at nature and tell me, where you find animals who have fears in the wild? I pet, you will see none. I do not speak of pets and of them who had terrible owners, because they are domesticated. I mean the wild. A crow will always attack a buzzard when it comes to near to its nest. At least in the area where I live, where nature can be nature. And it needs only one crow, to show the buzzard its "red line" and the buzzard understands it and sails into another direction! Go and have a look and you will see, all the "church stuff" is only "another propaganda". Enjoy your weekend. ❤️

    To this day, Susan's voice still makes me emotional. ♥
    But I'd like to add this: everyone was so quick to judge her for her quirky, maybe old-fashioned style and looks that perhaps don't match up with today's "beauty standards" - until they heard her incredible performance. Everyone changed their minds about her then. Which is awesome!
    But everybody who reacted like this, should also think about how often in life they judge other people, who end up not having such a wonderful talent to "redeem" themselves with. Susan is now a star, because she got this great chance. But there are so many people, who simply don't look like supermodels, too, or who are disabled because of health issues (or simply age; we'll all get there!) or who are poor and can't afford fancy clothes, or people who just have a different (life) style and get covered in tattoos, dye their hair green, enjoy wearing historical clothes in our modern days, or whatever else makes them different from the norm. Different skin color, different gender, different beliefs, different interestst... And maybe they can't even sing like Susan or something like that, but they could be the most kind-hearted people, the most loving parents, devoted animal rescuers, helpful neighbors... Or even if none of that, still people with feelings who can get hurt by superficial judgement. Don't judge a book by it's cover! Judge people's character, not their looks. You might get surprised, how interesting the most unusual people can be, once you give them a chance to get to know you. ;-)

      When I first saw her audition a long time ago I thought at the beginning of the video everyone was giggling because she had a cool accent that was cute, or because most people come on the show when they are younger, and then because she did the hip thing. 😔 I felt bad when I realized more of the context of why they were laughing (and I realized also the accent thing doesn't make sense given it's from BGT), but her confidence in the face of it knowing why there were giggles is impressive. 😃 I would love to have even 10% of that kind of confidence lol.

      @@robincharles7057 💖 I love your comment! And you're right, this woman's confidence was/is impressive. But you, too, can have it! I wrote my original long comment, because I speak from experience when it comes to being bullied. I was always different, always the outcast. I'm from Germany, but as a child I lived in Africa. There I got bullied because I was from a different country. Then we moved back, and in Germany I got bullied because I'd lived in Africa. Then I came into puberty and wasn't so lucky with my skin, and got made fun of because of that. Then I started having my very own, unique, kinda crazy hippie-gypsy-boho clothing style, and got bullied and shunned because of that. Instead of dressing more normal in order to get more accepted by my school mates, I dressed up even more and then went into the school band as a lead singer. I can't even hold a tune in a bucket! I just did it, to make a point of not "backing down" just because other people had different tastes in something so meaningless as clothes or how you puberty skin looked.
      Now I'm 43. I have emerald green hair, 17 tattoos, lots of scars on my arms from harming myself when I was younger, and I still dress in fancy stuff. I never get bullied anymore! Grandmas come up to me in grocery stores and tell me I look like a mermaid, and they'd dye their hair colorful, too, if they could just be young again. And I reply, they're not to old to do it NOW! Stangers on the tram tell me about my clothes how great it looks. People turn around and smile or flirt all the time, even though I surely don't look perfect (I still have some acne scaars on my skin from puberty, and my nose could be a raven's beak, lol).
      Since the pandemic began, I've isolated myself a lot, but before that, I did historic/medieval reenactment, and I loved to go dancing at goth and rock clubs. I wouldn't go onto a stange and try to sing anymore!! XD But, you know, confidence comes from owning your uniqueness! From embracing being different! Thank goodness we're not all on a big stage every day, where hundreds of people get to judge us. But that thing, that Susan did there - this acting as if she already owned the place... I think, that's the trick to emanating the (self-)confidence, which then makes people look at you in a positive light. Might not always work in school - kids are little assholes! But I swear, as an adult you can be what and however you want, beautifully and confidently, and most people who don't like your style will just ignore it, and the rest of them will lift you up for it. 💜

      @Murron B it was my understanding she lived in a Village, meaning an independent house located on a private parcel of property within a community. A contrast to living in a City, where a typical home occupies a unit of space within a large building. Many include common areas for residents to share. They're often referred to as; apartment, flat, condo or townhouse.

You had the option to re-record your reaction showing yourself in a better, less judgemental way and you are generous in spirit and honesty to have posted this. Your heart and empathy are so warming. Thank you! This, too, teaches us a lesson.
    There is hardly a single person in the United Kingdom who does not know who Susan Boyle is and has not, at least, heard about this famous audition; famous because at the beginning, like you, just about everyone was prejudiced against her and laughing at the thought that this 'ridiculous' middle-aged woman could possibly have any talent whatsoever! She has been an education to literally millions of people on prejudice; how first opinions can be so utterly misleading and cruel; and how talent can exist where we suspect none - with zero evidence and 100% ill-judged presumptions.
    I wish you - and the magnificent, courageous and beautiful Susan Boyle - every happiness!

    Susan Boyle went from being a veritable nobody from small town Scotland to being an overnight sensation worldwide, even though she did not win BGT that year. Simon took her under his wing and gave her the support to get her career launched. She has put out an album every year since she started. Each one has been a success. Today, she has her own recording studio and helps others to realise their dreams. She is an amazing lady whose net worth is around $40M USD. Despite her wealth, she still lives in her parents humble home where she grew up. She bought a larger more opulent house not far from her parents' house but uses it only for parties and a place where guests can stay when they come to visit.
