The UK Sun reports that Susan Boyle is ready for the final of 'Britain's Got Talent' and has insisted she will beat the pressureas the countdown begins declaring, "This is my moment, it's all that I've dreamed of."

'Talent' judge Amanda Holden, is cheering her on stating,"I still think she could win it."

The Sun reveals that there were fears Susan was set to quit under the immense pressure. But the show favorite has promised she is up for the fight to take the £100,000 first prize. Holden admitted: "She did have her bags packed at one stage, because she was so sad and upset. She's under a lot of pressure." But she added: "Susan will definitely be in the final and she'll do a great job." 

The singer was also bolstered by star fan Demi Moore, who wrote on her Twitter blog: "To the lovely Susan Boyle - trust the whole world is rooting for you!" To read the full article click here.

Susan Boyle officially denied yesterday that she would leave Britain's Got Talent. An ITV spokesperson confirmed that she will see her "Talent" through to the end, in spite of the pressures ahead. 

The Scottish singer will remain in the show, continue with rehearsals, and perform on Saturday's big Grand Final, the show spokesperson said tonight. Newspaper reports of an emotional outburst from Susan, as well as supposed threats to leave, "have been taken out of context, and are not serious or true". The spokesperson said, "Susan Boyle is still very much part of the Britain's Got Talent. She is looking forward to the Grand Final and she is rehearsing hard to prepare for the biggest night of her life".

Boyle herself confirmed, "I want nothing more than to stay and sing in the Britain's Got Talent final". "I've spent weeks rehearsing - it's all I've been thinking about. I'm not going to throw away my big chance now". To read the ITV report click here.

Scottish singing sensation Susan Boyle made it to the finals of Britain's Got Talent. She performed at the semi-finals on Sunday, May 24, 2009 on UK's ITV singing Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Memory" from CATS. 

Susan Boyle got a second chance to wow the world after her first appearance made her an Internet sensation. Boyle stunned and charmed tens of millions of viewers last month, when judges skeptical about her dowdy image were won over by her soaring voice and confident performance. Nearly six weeks after her performance of "I Dreamed a Dream" from the musical "Les Miserables," she performed "Memory" and the crowd went wild when she belted out during the final bars of the song.

The turbulent trio of Simon Cowell, Piers Morgan and Amanda Holden once again preside over the judging panel. They may bicker, they may snigger... but their manicured hands are always wickedly poised by their buzzers to puncture long-held ambitions in a splice. When the thousands of hopefuls had been whittled down to 40 favourites, they hit a week-long love-in of live semi-final shows. Here's where judge opinion and public vote collide in a five-day variety extravaganza, until just 10 acts, hand-picked by the public remaining for the grand finale.

There will be tears, there may be tantrums, but one thing's for certain... one talented act, who proves Britain's Got Talent, will be crowned the ultimate winner by series hosts Ant & Dec".
