Will Susan Boyle ever sing with Elaine Paige?
Not long ago, but maybe a lifetime ago, Susan named her idol as being Elaine Paige during her Britain’s Got Talent audition. Not long after, Elaine Paige met Susan Boyle after her performances on the famous breakfast TV show in the US. It was clear to all of us that one day in the near future, our Susan would be singing a duet with Elaine Paige. It all made so much sense.
Elaine Paige, the first lady of musical theatre in Britain sang with Susan on a TV special. Susan and Elaine shared a duet of I Know Him So Well. Susan acknowledged that this had been a dream come true to perform with her idol.
A plan was made to have the pair sing a duet from the musical Chess. However, Simon Cowell’s Syco record company ended the deal.
Elaine Paige is at a loss to explain, but it could be that something she said which was misinterpreted by the media. Paige explained the phenomena of Susan Boyle as something akin to a virus that spread around the world. However, Elaine Paige meant something like a computer virus.

Taking things out of context has often happened with Susan Boyle. But, have no doubts, Simon Cowell and his company definitely are out to protect Susan.
Elaine Paige has extended another invitation for Susan to perform in public with her, but she is not very hopeful.
“I’m a supporter of Susan and good luck to her. She’s done amazingly well and if you consider she’s had no experience at all and no one can ever understand the pressures involved of being thrust into the public eye, said Paige
However, it would be such a grand occasion if Syco finally allows Susan and Elaine to perform on the stage together or record a song together.
Susan Boyle is magical, a powerfully inspiring one. I have always wanted to sing like she does…raise the roof off of the building. Susan sings NOT from her heart, but from her SOUL (which includes her heart). She raises us UP “Where We Belong”.I am sad that her make-over people took out the pure Spirit and timbre of her singing. “The Gift” leaves nothing of Susan. Her voice is lost, mired in the mixologist’s hash of backup sounds. It’s criminal.
Where is the REAL SUSAN BOYLE’s voice ? ????? I want her back.
I’m 70. I know what I am saying. Is this Simon Cowell’s work? Tell him he needs to bring Susan back.
Hi Charlotte,
I think they do this with all the singers these days. I don’t know if it was Simon Cowell’s work, maybe there was a music producer involved. I still think she sounds great and has, like you said, an inspiring voice.
