Paige turns Scots down

A WEST Lothian schoolgirl who wowed judges on TV show Britain’s Got Talent is trying to tone down her Scots accent over fears viewers won’t understand her.

Singing sensation Paige Turley – whose version of Bon Iver’s Skinny Love impressed Simon Cowell at the weekend – wrote on Twitter: “Trying not to speak too scottish so people could understand me haha!”

The 14-year-old, from Fauldhouse, has now attracted 9000 fans on the social networking site, and her TV debut has become a YouTube hit with more than 123,000 views.
