Andrews thought her career was over

ESPN reporter Erin Andrews says she thought her career was over after secretly taped nude footage of her began circulating on the Internet.

Andrews appeared on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” on Friday in a taped 10-minute segment. This was her first interview on the topic and it was part of the show’s kickoff to its 24th season.

Andrews learned about the video from a friend, but initially laughed off the possibility it could be of her. After she watched it at his urging, the first thing she did was call her parents.

“I kept screaming: ‘I’m done. My career is over. I’m done. Get it off. Get it off the Internet,”‘ said Andrews, her eyes watering as she remembered talking to her father. “They thought I was physically injured, (that’s) how bad I was screaming.”

Los Angeles — Susan Boyle is bringing her act to America.

The Scottish sensation of “Britain’s Got Talent” will make her U.S. TV debut on the season finale of “America’s Got Talent,” according to a person close to the series. The person, who lacked authority to release the information, spoke Friday on condition of anonymity.

The dowdy Boyle surprised viewers of “Britain’s Got Talent” with her soaring rendition of “I Dreamed a Dream.” But she herself was taken aback by her sudden fame, which she has said hit her like a “giant demolition ball.” She was hospitalized for exhaustion after the British show.

The two-part finale of “America’s Got Talent” airs Monday and Wednesday on NBC, both at 7 p.m. CDT.
