Dame Kiri Te Kanawa 'not interested' in Susan Boyle - Telegraph

"Dame Kiri said she was ''not interested'' in discussing the YouTube sensation after Boyle performed it on Britain's Got Talent last year. Dame Kiri is involved in the BBC Radio 2 Kiri Prize, a hunt to find an opera star of the future. Asked about Boyle's success with the tune from Les Miserables, she told the Radio Times: ''Let's get off that subject. Move on."
LOVE THIS. I found all the Susan Boyle hoopla a bit mawkish and lame and beyond boring. Really, though, I like dismissal from both ends--the high of the low, and the low of the high. It keeps things interesting.
