This is hilarious!!!!!

Susan Boyle managed to 'take off' and give her minders the slip at Heathrow's VIP lounge earlier this week, grabbing a mop from cleaners and using it as a makeshift microphone, then deciding it could be put to better use polishing other passengers' shoes. Staff had to try and calm her when customers moaned, so she bolted out of Terminal 5, shouting: "I've escaped!"

A source said last night: "It was chaos. Susan was very restless and agitated from the minute she walked in and immediately started making a scene." Meanwhile, British Airways have confirmed that a customer was asked to "temper their behaviour" after becoming disruptive.

I'm sure people will call this a SuBo 'meltdown', but it just sounds like she had a bad case of high jinks to me. She was heading off to an important performance for Oprah, and she gets nervous when she flies. It's not like she's been assaulting the paps or drunk-driving like some stars we can mention, so let's not attach unwarranted accusations of mental distress to her!!
