“I Dressed to Sing, Not to Impress!” Susan Boyle Claps Back at Piers Morgan Over ‘Scruffy’ Look — Years After Secret Crush on Him
From Admiration to Confrontation: Susan Boyle Finally Fires Back After Piers’ Public Jab — and It’s Glorious
They once shared heartfelt laughs on the Britain’s Got Talent stage — but now, things between Susan Boyle and Piers Morgan have taken a frosty turn.
After years of quiet admiration and even rumoured affection, Susan, 63, has finally spoken out against her former TV crush — and fans are calling it her boldest moment yet.
The drama ignited after Piers, never one to bite his tongue, made a sly remark during a recent interview, commenting on Susan’s “scruffy” attire at a charity event in Glasgow.
“She’s got the voice of an angel,” he said. “But someone really ought to help her with those cardigans.”
Big mistake. Huge.
Susan, known for her humility but never short of spirit, hit back in a rare public statement that left jaws dropping.
“I dress to sing, not to impress,” she said, “and I didn’t realise my clothes were on trial. I’m not a fashion model — I’m a singer. Always have been.”
Crush? What Crush?
Fans were quick to recall Susan’s infamous crush on Piers back in 2009, when she sweetly admitted on-air that she found him “charming” and “very handsome.”
But those days seem long gone.
“I might’ve fancied him once,” Susan later told a reporter with a wink, “but I’ve seen enough now to change my mind.”
Support Pours In
Social media exploded in support of Susan’s fiery clapback, with fans praising her for standing up for herself.
“She’s real, she’s raw, and she doesn’t need designer labels to shine,” one user tweeted. “Piers should stick to judging — not judging wardrobes.”
Old-School Talent, New-Age Sass
While Susan continues to tour modestly and focus on music that touches the soul, Piers remains caught in headlines of his own making — and this latest spat might just prove that underestimating Susan Boyle is always a bad idea.
Because she may have dreamed a dream — but she’s wide awake now, and not afraid to speak her truth.
