IT looks as though the pressure of being favourite to win Britain’s Got Talent has finally got to Susan Boyle – caught here bowing down to fellow contestant Midlander Darth Jackson.
Susan began hitting the headlines for all the wrong reasons in the run up to the BGT final last night.
Police spoke to the 48 year-old Scottish spinster after she lost her temper in front of hundreds of hotel guests on Wednesday.
But the 37-year-old postal worker, real name Philip Farrugia, from Handsworth, Birmingham, said the Susan was really a “nice person”.
He said: “She always jokes with me. Because she knows me as Darth Vader and the Dark Lord of the Sith, whenever she greets me she says ‘Yes my Lord’.”
Philip stunned the judges when he performed his moonwalking dance routine to Michael Jackson’s thriller, while dressed up in Star Wars gear.
Amanda Holden was particularly impressed with his first appearance.
