In a world where appearances are everything and the underdog is taken for granted, viewed with cynicism and considered an embodiment of incompetence, no underdog has been widely given a chance to prove their worthiness. However, there comes a wakeup call every now and then that changes these misconceptions, and proves that the underdog can turn the table over, and the best part about it is that it proves everyone was dead wrong believing the reality they created for themselves, or constructed for them by the media.

At the end, it’s a cathartic feeling for everybody, a feeling that helps cleanse the soul and purify the mind of its prejudices and ill conceived thoughts. The emergence of the underdog from its hidden den is capable to make us realize that what is prevailing at the media of the present time is just an eye candy void of any meaningful core, a beautified shell that can be easily broken and consumed.

Susan Boyle, a mid aged Scottish lady, is one of the many underdogs scattered around the world. She 's a proof that appearances can indeed be deceiving, and that narrow mindedness can turn to open-mindedness in a matter of minutes, and that's what she did in her debut at Britain's Got Talent show. She was given a chance at the age of 47 and delivered what came to be a sensational performance many fail to rise up to her standards. Whether the whole Cinderella story was staged to perfection or just a coincidence that's not what matters , the fact remains the same with regards to the underdogs in this world. More underdogs need More chances like this in every realm in just media, maybe then we’ll have a really better and meaningful life.
