Susan Boyle accused of being drunk after slurring her words on The Wendy Williams show
Concerned viewers said she looked as though she was drunk or on medication
There are concerns for Susan Boyle's health after the global sensation's recent appearance on The Wendy Williams Show. She was promoting her new Home for Christmas album when she appeared to be drunk or medicated while singing, leaving American viewers concerned.
Susan started to slur and forget the words during a performance of 'Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas', which is taken from her new LP. She looked visibly uncomfortable throughout the song as she struggled to hit some of the higher notes. Some of the lyrics were also left incomprehensible as she struggled through with her arms locked into a strange position

Bloody Hellfire, I'm not a fan or detractor of Susan but always thougt she needed special taking care of...
I think if a person didn't know they must have been on Mars for the last few years.
Her learning difficulties and the fact she's easily stressed are precisely why she needs protection from the anxieties of live performances.
BIB I agree I think it is a shame she really did look like she didn't want to be there.
We are seeing a different Susan to the cheeky and confident person she was during that famous XFactor audition. Her fame has been a mixed blessing for sure.
Indeed, just wondering why theyre asking if shes high or drunk... the case is neither.
I do agree that exposure to this extent is not good for her.
It's the "Don't judge a book by its cover" moral from her Britain's Got Talent audition. That's all.
It's a quiet song, but she was slurring some of the words. Whether this indicates drink or medication I don't know.
She always tends to look awkward when she's singing. She knows how to sing, but she doesn't know how to emote, which is possibly down to the 'learning difficulties' she has. Compare her to every other singer and her face is pretty much blank and her arms are stiff and immobile.
She's usually so erudite and articulate.
I thought she was slurring her words. She seemed far more than a bit nervous.
She stumbled over words at the beginning and looked terrified throughout. She didn't look as if she was enjoying herself - in fact she seemed as if she wanted to be anywhere else but in that studio! There was no attempt to engage with the audience and the whole thing made for uncomfortable viewing.
Whoever is looking after her needs to step in and rethink things - otherwise an even bigger meltdown is surely only a matter of weeks away.
Learning difficulties might have impacted on her as a child but she's an adult now...she has learned to sing, to perform, to be interviewed - so I fail to see why her 'learning difficulties' are used to explain every detail of her behaviour.
