At Boyle-ing point over rival SOURCE: THE SUN ONLINE 27 May 2009
SUSAN Boyle stuck two fingers up at rival Shaheen Jafargholi and stormed out of a screening of Britain's Got Talent last night after her idol Piers Morgan told the Welsh lad he was the best singer on the semi finals so far.
The 48-year-old Scot stunned a bar full of around 150 hotel guests with her reaction to Piers' praise of Shaheen, 12, when she made a two-fingered gesture at the TV screen and cried "******* off".
She then stormed off to her room in the Wembley Plaza Hotel and didn't return for the rest of the night.
Susan has admitted having a crush on Piers after her first audition on the ITV1 hit.
He revealed how she ran up to him and gave him a kiss after learning she'd got through to the final.
And millions saw her do a saucy shimmy for him and shout out "Piersy baby" at her semi final on Sunday night.
But since belting out Cats tune Memories some people have said she hasn't lived up to her hype.
Susan became a global hit with more than 100m fans watching her BGT audition clip on YouTube.
Singer Lily Allen dubbed Susan as "over-rated" and backed Shaheen to win.
A spokeswoman for Britain's Got Talent denied last night's incident.
She said: "Susan was watching the show in the bar with the contestants' families at first.
"But she was getting hassled by a journalist, so went to watch the rest of the show in a room with four friends."

Susan Boyle has denied swearing at a showing of yesterday's Britain's Got Talent semi-final after judge Piers Morgan praised fellow contestant Shaheen Jafargholi on the show.
Morgan told the 12-year-old that his rendition of 'And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going' from the musical Dreamgirls had been "the best singing performance we have heard in the semi-finals so far".
Boyle, who was reportedly watching the show with friends in the bar of the Wembley Plaza Hotel, was alleged to have responded by sticking two fingers up at the television and shouting 'f**k off', before retreating to her hotel room.
Her outburst was alleged to have been witnessed by about 150 guests at the hotel, with one claiming: "Everyone was stunned by her reaction."
However, a spokeswoman for the star denied the claims, stating that Boyle had left the bar before Jafargholi's performance had been shown.
She said: "Susan was in the bar with friends but was getting hassled by a journalist. The four of them left before Shaheen’s live performance to watch it in the room instead."
Susan Boyle, who won through to the final of Britain's Got Talent on Sunday, is currently the favourite to win the reality show.
Britain's Got Talent continues tomorrow at 8.30pm on ITV1.

Well I think she is a victim of all the hyper around her... maybe she is starting to believe it herself, and thus started acting like a diva...

Jamie Pugh has revealed that he will undergo hypnosis to get over his stage fright after he was eliminated from the semi-final of Britain's Got Talent.
The 38-year-old pizza delivery man has pledged to continue singing, despite losing out on a place in this weekend's final to Shaun Smith and Flawless.
Pugh told The Mirror: "I woke up this morning with fire in my belly and I really want a singing career.
"But first I must find out what is making me so nervous. I'm hoping hypnosis will provide the answer. The judges didn't see the real me."
On his blog, judge Piers Morgan said that Pugh "died a terrible death of nerves on the biggest stage of his life", while fellow panellist Amanda Holden reportedly said that she "hated" his singing voice during his first audition.

Fabia Cerra has said that she would tone down her burlesque strip routine if she wins the final of Britain's Got Talent and performs in front of the Queen.
The dancer said that it would be "disrespectful" to bare all at the Royal Variety Show were she to get past tonight's live show and win Saturday's final.
Cerra told Metro: "I would be doing a burlesque act that is very, very tasteful where I am in a covered up in a corset."
The stripper added that Dita Von Teese had been "an inspiration" for her act.
"Watching her on TV gave me the confidence to track down a burlesque class and try it for myself. It gave me back a lot of confidence that I had lost in the past. She's an idol," she said.
Good luck to her :)

I knew Julian would win and the judges would have to pick between 2 Grand and Callum. Shame all three acts couldn't go through as Callum act was funny and entertaining. 2 Grand are just lovely they may not be the best singers in the competition but they have such a loving relationship John is what every Grandad should be like. I don't think they will win on Saturday but I can see Simon letting them release an album like Farrell did.
My top three for Saturday are:
1) Julian Smith
2) Diversity
3) Stavors Flatley.

I think too that Julian Smith can pull it off in the final, or another youngster again like Callum Francis. I think it will be between those two.
