Susan Boyle has revealed that she is ashamed of her temper tantrums.

The 50-year-old, who has just released a video for her single 'You Had To Be There', has admitted that her temper gets the better of her sometimes:

"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 reveals this all in her upcoming documentary, 'Susan Boyle: An Unlikely Superstar', which will be aired on November 4 on ITV1 at 9pm.

She also says that she is "lonely" and wants to find "someone special":

"Am I lonely? I would be lying if I said otherwise. I often say how lonely I am...You feel it sometimes at night. You just hope the job that you've got wins you new friends and maybe one day that vital person...He would have to be kind, loving and maybe someone who could keep me calm. Someone special. Someone extra special. There's plenty of time".
