Susan To Appear On “America”?
“America’s Got Talent” judge Piers Morgan spoke with reporters on Tuesday and promised that the new season of the NBC show will both honor — and reflect — the Susan Boyle phenomenon. “From the time [Britain’s Got Talent] aired in Britain, thousands more people auditioned in America. She had a big effect on auditions,” Morgan said of the U.S. version that debuts June 23. “There will be two or three acts who could have the same impact. After one group performs, there won’t be a dry eye in the house.”
But there’s no replacement for the chanteuse herself, which is why Morgan plans to extend an invite to Boyle to appear on the show. “If she’s up for it, what a moment that can be,” he says. (An NBC spokesperson says that producers are looking into inviting Boyle on the show.)
