Isn't it refreshing to know that our society is still open to talent even when the talented is outside the tradition standards of what we have been taught to expect of celebrities. Susan Boyle a 47 year old woman has restored my personal belief that the entire world is not as shallow as hollywood would have us believe. We as a society have been programed to believe that if a person doesn't look like a super model then no matter how talented they are , they have little or no chance of making it big in the entertainment business. I was especially horrified during the olympics in China when the angelic voice of Yang Peili was pre-recorded and mimed by another little girl Lin Miaoke during the actual ceremony because Yang was considered ugly!
So here is to Susan Boyle and to anyone who thinks they don't have the looks or are not of an age to pursue their dreams. There is hope for true inner beauty to shine through. After all the 30's are the new 20's right , doesn't that make the 40's the new 30's, with the increase in life expectancy it only makes since that an older society can achieve things that traditionally have been done by younger people. Many others have accomplished their dreams at an older age, Paula Dean became a household name in her 50's, and many actors like Kathy Bates and Morgan Freeman also got a late start and went on to have enormous careers at an age that in the past most actors where conditioned to believe that their time in the spotlight was dwindling.
