That's right, gurl! Stand up!

Ricky Gervais really overstepped being funny and right into hurtful with his comments about Susan Boyle's looks.

Here's what he said about her:

It seems the Queen of Pop has refused to let Susan Boyle use one of her songs (You'll See) for I Dreamed A Dream, a musical based on the British operatic singer’s life.

While Les Miserables legend Cameron Mackintosh was pleased to allow SuBo’s musical to use Les Mis’ signature song as the TITLE, Madge was not having anything to do with the production.

But, not to fret, as Sue sure isn't. The Britain's Got Talent singer says about her life/musical:

The Dream is one step closer to a reality!

Rehearsals are underway for the Susan Boyle themed musical, I Dreamed A Dream, and the full cast has been revealed.

As reported earlier, Elaine C. Smith will play Scottish lass with a powerful voice. Joining her will be

Looks like Simon's got ambitious plans for his return to BGT!

Last month, ITV president Adam Crozier confirmed that Simon Cowell would be returning to Britain's Got Talent as a judge, following The Hoff's firing!

Now, Simon has opened up about his return to the show, and he's aiming HIGH this season:

Susan Boyle values her worth! And she thinks she can party hard with Kings of Leon and Lady GaGa!

The UK talent is serious in her desire to collaborate with the music heavyweights, and even though we're not sure if the world is ready for that, we'd LOVE to see her sing with the Sex on Fire band!!

Or even better — she and GaGa should Marry the Night together in the video! LOL!!

Okay, okay, enough with the silly, back to the serious (because, really, she is).

SuBo dreams big for her next album, saying:

"I'm ashamed to admit it, but yes. But I'm getting a wee bit older now and I'm more used to it. You get nothing done by shouting and bawling. I'm not proud of it but I was known as the Miss Piggy of temper."

She is just TOO funny! We love her!

Check out this absolutely amazing interview with Susan Boyle that aired this morning on The Today Show, which features the singing sensation giving a tour of the same home she grew up in, as well as "posh house" she bought down the street, as well as her hilarious Donny Osmond blanket, and what she's looking for a man (above)!

SUCH a sweetheart! And a great sense of humor, right?

Congratulations on all of your success, SuBo! It truly is so well-deserved!

Can't wait for the new album!
