A Russian far-right party posted an open letter to talent show singer Susan Boyle, heaping praise on the 48-year-old Scot and wishing her well after she was admitted to a clinic for exhaustion.

"Susan! You have already gained popularity and many admirers and fans," leader of the Liberal Democratic Party (LDPR), Vladimir Zhirinovsky, said in an open letter posted on the party's website www.ldpr.ru this week.
In an effort to console Boyle, whose clips of her earlier appearance on the "Britain's Got Talent" TV contest were downloaded nearly 200 million times and who came second on the show, LDPR leader Zhirinovsky compared her near-win to his own political fortunes.
"The people also love our party, but just like you, we do not always get the deserved result at elections," he said.
At the end of his letter to Boyle, who has become a global Internet sensation, Zhirinovsky wished her a speedy recovery: "Get better soon and know that many victories await you."
Boyle was admitted to a London clinic suffering from anxiety and exhaustion after the former church volunteer was defeated in the final of the TV contest on Saturday.
Boyle has been pursued by the world's press since early April when she sang "I Dreamed a Dream" from "Les Miserables." She broke down in tears repeatedly ahead of the final.
