No more shouting for Boyle

FIESTY Susan Boyle is "ashamed" of her temper tantrums.

The 50-year-old Scottish singing sensation - who shot to fame after appearing on Britain's Got Talent in 2009 - is known for her fiery outbursts, but has learnt to control her emotions now she is older and more used to fame.

"I'm ashamed to admit it, but yes. But I'm getting a wee bit older now and I'm more used to it. You get nothing done by shouting and bawling. I'm not proud of it but I was known as the Miss Piggy of temper," Boyle said.

The Wild Horses hitmaker - who famously declared she had "never been kissed" when auditioning for Britain's Got Talent, also admitted she was "lonely" and wanted to find a "special" man who could "calm" her down.

Speaking on a forthcoming documentary, Susan Boyle: AnUnlikely Superstar, she said: "Am I lonely? I would be lying if I said otherwise. I often say how lonely I am. You feel it sometimes at night. You just hope the job you've got wins you new friends and maybe one day that vital person.

"He would have to be kind, loving and maybe someone who could keep me calm. Someone special. Someone extra special. There's plenty of time."

The documentary airs on ITV1 on Friday.
