Hollie Steel Heats Up the Competition In Britain’s Got Talent

American Idol is winding down to a predictable ending: Adam Lambert. Most people are simply calling the 3rd and 4th spots. However, on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, things are jsut getting warmed up. Everyone thought that ,with the unlikely entrance of 48 year old spinster Susan Boyle, the deal was sealed. A week later, the Times Online.UK uncovered her CD of “Cry Me A River”, and the World was astounded again at the depth of her talent.
However, according to Celebrity, a little 10 year old showed up, from Accrington Lancashire, England, Hollie Steel. According to her biography she survived a near fatal case of pneumonia as a 4 year old child and live to sing another day. When she danced onto the stage in her tutu and ballerina slippers, you could see the judges exasperation and Simon’s near attempt to hit the bell. Well, they were wrong again. Here we go again. So far, looks like in a few short days, this video has received approximately 4 million hits. So we’re in for a lively contest across the waters.
