Susan
Boyle's Brother Concerned
Susan Boyle’s brother says not enough is being done to
protect the star- and admits he is worried she could be killed if security
isn’t stepped up.
John Boyle spoke out after the Britain’s Got Talent star confronted an
intruder in her council house in Blackburn, West Lothian on Tuesday night.
The 48 year-old spinster’s shock encounter happened after she had flown back
to Scotland from London where she had been recording vocals for Simon
Cowell’s all -star Haiti earthquake charity single, Everybody Hurts.
John, 59 also blasted record bosses who he claimed were too busy counting
cash to worry about his sister’s security.
The prowler incident is the second scare surrounding Susan Boyle after
police were called following an attempted break in at her home in December.
John told a newspaper: "I am very upset about the lack of security. Her
management company are too busy counting the money Susan has made them to
consider her safety.
"The family have told them several times that vast improvements need to be
made to avoid something like this happening. This is the second time
something has happened to Susan at her home and it is extremely worrying.
"Susan is a massive world star and needs better protection. You look at what
happened to John Lennon in New York - it's really worrying."

New ITV Chief
Executive
ITV today announced the appointment of Adam Crozier as Chief
Executive.
Crozier, who is currently Chief Executive of Royal Mail
Group, will take up his role later this year.
Archie Norman, Chairman of ITV Plc, said: “I am thrilled that Adam is
joining us as Chief Executive. ITV is a strong brand with talented people,
facing an imperative for change as the media landscape evolves. Adam is a
very strong leader with a great track record in delivering transformational
change. He has worked successfully in talent-driven organisations, with
government and regulators, and has a thorough understanding of the media,
advertising and branding industries.
“His task is to bring together the skills and talent within ITV to drive the
business on its strategic journey. Adam was the unanimous choice of the
Non-Executive Directors of ITV after a very full and thorough search
process."
Adam Crozier said: “I am very excited to be joining ITV - a company with a
great heritage and one of the best brands in the UK. The entire media sector
is going through enormous change and that presents both great opportunities
and significant challenges for everyone in the industry. The objective for
ITV is to rise to those challenges and put itself at the forefront of
change. I am very much looking forward to working with the people at ITV and
leading the transformation ahead."
Prior to joining the Royal Mail, Mr Crozier had been the boss of the
Football Association.
Mr Crozier returned the Royal Mail to profitability, but the postal service
has also been hit by strike action.
ITV said he was due to take up the chief executive position "later this
year".
