Does anyone know what's happening with Subo? Her official social networks and website haven't been updated in months and she doesn't have a new album out again this year like usual.

Her sales figures and chart positions have all recently started dwindling, is it possible she could have been axed from Syco?

No, her contract has been extended.

Her 7th album had been recorded, but they decided to toss out some of the songs and record new ones, so that's delayed it. Plus, with Adele and Bieber and Enya all coming out after long absence and 1-D's last record for awhile also releasing in this Xmas season, anyone else is going to be swamped, so delay makes sense for other reasons, as well. Expect it some time next year.

Plus, she worked hard touring the US and UK last year. She's 54, not 20 and her show is mostly her for 2 1/2 hours. So she was pretty tired at the end of 2014. She's done some private gigs this year, headlined a South African Festival, and guested with Elaine Paige at the Glamis Proms. But generally stayed close to home and just had fun.

Come on now Bruce Dickinson of Iron Maiden is 56 and about to embark on an epic tour next year and that is energetic and he has been doing it for 30 odd years, and the year after the tour will probably continue 54 is not old.

Perhaps, she isn't in as good shape as Bruce Dickinson. Does he tour with the band or is he a solo act now?

To be absolutely fair to Susan Boyle even though i am not a fan she has overcome a lot to get where she is today and good luck to her.
