Cat-dependent Susan Boyle misses concert after hissy fit over MIA kitty

Don’t expect a Susan Boyle world tour anytime soon.

Unless her beloved cat, Pebbles, is the opening act.

According to the Daily Mirror, Susan Boyle did not appear in another "Britain’s Got Talent" concert last night after a hysterical screaming fit over her MIA kitty, Pebbles.

Susan stood on the balcony of her eighth-floor hotel room overlooking the hotel atrium and repeatedly bawled: “Where’s my cat?” She was whisked out of the Liverpool hotel via a fire escape.

It gets worse...

One witness said: “She kept shouting, ‘I want my cat! I need my cat!’ I think people felt sorry for her as she was clearly unhappy.”

If she ever wondered why she’s is 50 and single, besides looking worse than Rocky Dennis, there’s your answer.

As a cat lover, I can understand her being upset if her cat is really MIA.

But if her cat is merely at home watching by telly, I think Miss Boyle should take a valium and shut-up.

They captured her breakdown on video!

It's pretty shocking to see, I have to admit.

I feel so sorry for this poor woman. As I understand it she was born with some type of mental deficiency which has followed her all of her life. I’d be interested to know exactly what the deficiencies are simply because I think it would explain why she appears to not have a sense of the world around her.

I’ve know a few people who seem to fit in that particular mold. It’s as if, in order to cope, they build a world where they feel safe and when they’re exposed to a world not of their own making they don’t know how to cope in a socially accepted manner. To me it explains some of her behaviours, with the most recent being her dependence on finding her missing cat.

I hope she finds a niche which allows her to be comfortable.

When you finally meet a human being that doesn't have some kind of mental deficiency, please let us know.;-)

I think anyone who be nuts if they had been hounded by the press the way she has been. She has no experience coping with this kind of intrusion into her life. The tour is grueling; a different city every night, sometimes two shows a day. Other acts have taken a day off, but no one criticizes them for it.

I think she would be fine if the press would back off. Let her be and let her sing.

I feel sorry for this poor woman. She loves her cat and is upset because it’s missing, and for that she has my sympathy.

What a cruel,mean thing to say! Rocky could not help the way he looked! If you ever met the boy you would never make a joke about him again in your life. I met him when he lived in my hometown. He was just a kind boy with a birth defect who wanted to be friends!

Susan is not beautiful by Hollywood standards but that voice is exquisite to be sure! Fame is a cruel master and few are tamed by it!

She suffered from oxygen deprivation at birth. At school they called her "simple Susan."

First of all, if I was on a tour with my dog and my dog went missing, I'd stop everything until she was found.

Second, why are we suddenly trusting the mainstream media's account of Susan Boyle's actions? The British and American press are getting a kick out of trashing this woman. She was "too good to be true" and they want to make sure us rubes get that.

I suspect Susan Boyle's distress, however manifested, goes deeper than simply missing her pet cat.

I don't know much about this lady but she seems to have been (and remains) emotionally unprepared for and ill-equipped to deal with the media spotlight and the stresses of a singing career. That being the case, I don't understand why she ever wanted to audition for the TV show that eventually brought her the fame and scrutiny that seems to be upsetting her so. She should withdraw from the whole thing and go back to the quiet life she once had and that seems much better suited to her temperament and emotional state.

Susan Boyle could always stick to recording, which is quite lucrative when the artist is popular with the public, and just avoid the public spotlight, as some singers have done over the years. She obviously can't handle fame - and she doesn't have to. This lady really needs one or two advisers with her interests in mind to handle her career and protect her from the tabloid garbage and the many stresses of the stage that threaten to bring her only grief.

I wish her well.
