Susan Boyle turns down invite to meet Obama
http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/showbiz ... Obama.html
By Douglas Wight, 10/05/2009
SUSAN Boyle turned down the chance of a dream dinner date with President Barack Obama in Washington . . . to stay at home and wash her hair, we can reveal.
Britain's Got Talent's Hairy Angel confessed to being TOO NERVOUS to meet the American president - her most famous fan - at a glittering star-studded bash.
A source told us: "She was shocked and thrilled by the invite - but it was all too much too soon for her so she said No."
"She has been told President Obama has seen clips of her on TV and loved her singing. And she is delighted.
"But instead she'll have no doubt stayed in with her cat Pebbles, washed her hair and watched Britain's Got Talent on telly."
American TV networks all fell over themselves to give her a special invitation to the prestigious annual Correspondents Dinner which took place in Washington DC last night. President Obama was guest of honour and invitations are like gold dust.
Dowdy spinster Susan - who captured hearts around the world when she sang I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables - would have rubbed shoulders with the rich and famous including Hollywood A-listers at the five-star Hilton Hotel . . . and the President.
Fame
But the 48-year-old favourite to win the TV show - who lives in a council house in the tiny Scots village of Blackburn, West Lothian - turned them all down.
Susan's invitation shows what a huge star she has become in the States. And her refusal shows that worldwide fame has certainly not changed her.
"She knows she would have been incredibly nervous if she'd gone," said the source. "But her dream is to sing for President Obama one day.
"She loves him and thinks he is already a terrific president.""It is error alone that needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself".

I think she was being polite, it seems against her nature to say a mean word.

Obama is Sickening!
If Obama invited me to meet with him in Washington, I would turn him down also, because I would be afraid if I met him, knowing all he has done to America, I would be unable to keep my lunch down.

Good for her. I wouldn't want to meet him either.
Mr. Showbiz must be wanting her super star sucess to rub off on him.

Wonder how his ego is doing after that one!The flag flies at half-mast out of grief for the death of my beautiful, formerly-free America. May God have mercy on your souls.
