Who cares about inner beauty?

We sometimes say that the inner beauty is real. But, do we really mean it? 

I feel that we have all been brainwashed with what or who is considered beautiful. While there may be minor or sometimes significant differences between the definition of beauty among different regions of a country or among parts of the world, for an individual, it remains more or less rigid throughout life. We make the first impression about a person by his/her external appearance, and a person whom we feel is not beautiful initially gets the B grade, though, later on, we may change our opinion. It may be acceptable if I find a person not beautiful enough to be my life-partner, but do I have a right to give my opinion on other qualities of that person based on his/her physical appearance? For instance, if we find a person not beautiful, simultaneously we also make an opinion that that person also can't be a good singer, dancer, actor or professional. We see this all the time during singing competitions on TV programs/stage shows, where a singer must be beautiful and well dressed in order to be accepted. This is exactly what happened with Susan Boyle, when she appeared to sing on the TV Program, "Britain's Got Talent 2009" on April 11, 2009. When Susan, 47 year old, not a beautiful women from generally accepted standards appeared on the stage, everyone, including the judges starting laughing at her. The usual assumption -- an ugly women can't sing well. But, when she started singing, everyone was stunned. Her singing performance has already been watched by over 100 million viewers on the Internet. If you haven't watched singing her so far, here is the link.
