Well, I didn’t expect this. It seems Lady Gaga is a huge Susan Boyle fan. Not only does Gaga think the world of SuBo, Gaga is also interested in doing a duet with the woman The Sun refers to as “the hairy angel”. Which is insulting, right? So Susan has a little mustache. She’s still a star! Now everyone has to be plucked, tucked and sucked. Anyway, Gaga declares that SuBo is her pick for “woman of the year” and although their “styles are different” Gaga is totally open to a collaboration. Mother of…!
ONE person I didn’t expect to buy into the SUBO dream was eccentric pop star LADY GAGA. The hairy angel’s rags to riches story has won her hordes of celebrity fans including DEMI MOORE, OPRAH WINFREY and even US president BARACK OBAMA.
Now it turns out Lady G is a Susan Boyle supporter too. And as crackers as this sounds, she’s not ruling out a GaGa/SuBo collaboration.
The Poker Face singer said: “I love Susan Boyle. She is my woman of the year. She has achieved more in this year than most artists will in a lifetime. This time last year nobody even knew who she was and now she is knocking the world’s most established artists off the album and singles charts. Our styles are different. I don’t know if we could work together, but never say never. It would be great to work with somebody of that talent.”
The double act could be known as GaBo – or SuGa.
The unusual pair would have one thing in common, both are absolutely bonkers. I just hope SuBo doesn’t go on to adopt GaGa’s unique dress sense.
It’s bad enough watching the American star prancing around in her PVC pants. But the thought of a pair on the Highland lassie with the big chassis is enough to put me off my dinner.
GaGa reckons she has followed Susan’s success since the beginning and loves to watch the video of her first Britain’s Got Talent audition.
She said: “I have watched the clip of her singing on BGT a thousand times and every time I see SIMON COWELL’s face it makes me laugh out loud. He thinks he knows everything but even he wasn’t expecting that.”
Both GaGa and SuBo have high-profile gigs to bring in the New Year tomorrow. Lady G is being paid £200,000 to perform at the swanky Fontainebleau hotel in Miami, while Susan will be singing on Japan’s biggest TV music show, Kohaku Uta Gassen.

At first I thought this interview with Gaga might be fake, but it looks authentic. Gaga really is SuBo’s biggest fan, bless her heart. Does SuBo have a big gay following? She will if Gaga gets her hands on her. And yes, the idea of Susan Boyle in one of Gaga’s get-ups is hysterical.

I think it would be interesting in a good way. 🙂
They call her the hairy angel? That pisses me off! ):
The press is just evil when it comes to Susan Boyle’s appearance. I think she’s just lovely the way she is. It’d be something to see a collaboration between them! Sort of like Eminem and Elton John, though that was more of a political statement. This would be pure entertainment. Could be hot!
Suddenly I feel this strange…WARMTH… for Gaga where nothing but eye-rolling once was. Must be off my meds.
Susan Boyle is cute as a cupcake. She comes from the middle of nowhere in Ireland, for pete’s sake, and the media acts like they’re shocked that normal-looking people can be talented. I think the very presence of Susan Boyle is threatening to the media, so they try to put her down whenever they can.
Susan Boyle is Scottish and waxes now.
I would hope any collaboration is better than the lousy crap Gaga made with Beyonce. That was bloody horrible.
Isn’t this just Gaga being all contrivedly off-beat again? Not a fan, but she looks like she tries *so* hard at the eccentric.
I can’t see Gaga’s desire to perform with SB as a plan to expand her audience. I truly don’t think that she’s expecting to have little old cat ladies in Scotland buying her music.
I think that she’s totally sincere about this. A statement like this shows how open-minded and ambitious she is, as she’s expressing a desire to collaborate with someone whose style differs so greatly from hers. It’s one thing for two artists to collaborate because they’re both popular, have similar styles, and are attractive. It’s another thing to say, “We’re both very different, but I think that I can learn from this person.” That’s a very humble and mature attitude to have, and indicative of a true artist.
As crazy as she is, I always stand by Lady Gaga. I love her to bits. Her music’s so everywhere, and constantly in your face, but she’s got a TON of talent that’s often ignored because of how she looks. Respect!
I adore Lady Gaga and think SuBo is awesome, so this would be pretty cool. With SuBo’s voice and Gaga’s flair and style and voice, it could be AMAZING. It might make up for the Beyonce thing, because I freaking DESPISE Beyonce and cannot imagine why someone as talented and just plain awesome as Gaga would even waste her time with that horrid hack Beyonce. So go for it ladies, it’ll be interesting to see how it comes out.
Why do they insist on calling her not only a hairy angel but the Highland lassie with the big chassis? I get that she’s not your average pop tart, but it’s not like people are buying her record to look at the pictures! Enough with the insults.
I have a feeling this is another attempt for gaga to keep herself in the spotlight (not that she needs it as she’s everywhere but it only take a slip up and you can be forgotten over night). the pop music industry is fickle after all so i dont blame her.
I don’t think so, Dan. It’s not like Susan Boyle’s a big hit with the kids.
I call fake on the interview, especially the Simon Cowel comment. She plays the same game as he does; she would have respect for the man’s extraordinary knack and talent. I would expect such a comment from, say, Jessica Simpson. That, or Gaga said it to appeal to her middle-America fans (except she didn’t).
Although I do believe she respects Susan Boyle. Heck, I do too. Just because her voice isn’t to my taste doesn’t mean I don’t love her success.
I loooove everything about Susan Boyle. From her awsome voice to her regular looks. Reading this interview kinda makes me like the Gag just a little. Only a little.
I think Susan looks great in that dress!
WTF? Lady Ga-Ga is trying so hard to be the new Madonna with her crazy outfits n all
they can’t accept Susan Boyle as the normal person who forgets to tweeze her mustache off or who goes shopping in the mall which has got markdowns for that matter…and are forcefully changing her into a Hollywood alien:)
Would we call them GagBo? They’ll both be fighting over the wax or the razor.
