Oprah Snags Her Susan Boyle Interview

oprah winfrey and susan boyleOprah is getting her wish sooner than anyone thought she would!

As we reported last month, Oprah Winfrey wants to interview Susan Boyle, but it looked like she was going to have to wait until Britain’s Got Talent was over to get that wish.  Now, according to Entertainment Tonight, Simon Cowell is coming on Oprah’s show to address the rumors he is leaving American Idol, and also to showcase Susan Boyle amongst other talents he has helped discover.

Make sure to check your local listings for the episode to air Monday May 11th entitled ”The Oprah Winfrey Show: The World’s Got Talent.”  There is no word if Ms. Boyle will sing, but I can’t imagine that she won’t.  And, yes, she will be appearing from her home in Scotland, just like she does in about 90% of here television appearances.  Oh well, maybe we’ll finally see Cuddles.

Oprah Wants Susan Boyle On Her Show

oprah winfrey and susan boyleNot all that surprisingly, it appears that Oprah Winfrey wants Susan Boyle on her show at some point in the future.

According to Marc Malkin at E!, Oprah’s producers have expressed interest in Ms. Boyle appearing on the show in Chicago, but the people at Britain’s Got Talent have said that sort of thing won’t be happening until the show is over.  Seeing as she was on the first audition episode of the series, she has another six weeks to go before she appears on the live semi-finals episode.

At this point, even if she doesn’t win the series, I think it’s pretty safe to say that Ms. Boyle is still going to have some form of career ahead of her just on the back of her Internet popularity.  Will Oprah still want her on the show if that is what happens?  I think it’s pretty safe to assume that she will indeed.

Stay tuned for more details.
