Susan Boyle turned down an invitation to go diving with Tom Daley, in what would probably have been one of the most bizarre scenes shown on television.

The Olympic diver has a new reality show, Splash!, which will see him teaching various celebrities how to dive - but Susan won't be starring in it.

Despite being asked to take part, Susan refused to join the show, because she doesn't know how to swim.

The Britain's Got Talent singer told the Daily Star Sunday, "I did get asked to be in a diving show recently, which is hilarious because I can't swim and I'm utterly terrified of water.

"I wouldn't have made it to the first step of the diving board."

She also spoke out about the various other reality shows, pointing out the problems she'd have with them in her usual forthright manner.

"I don't think I could go in the jungle (on I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!). Strictly Come Dancing? Well, I'm like a baby elephant with two left feet.

"As for Dancing On Ice, you'd have to strap two cushions to my backside as that's where I'd constantly be."

Susan also spoke to STV about her recent album Standing Ovation, saying, "I loved making it.

"I got a lot of fun out of it and with my new producer and a new vocal coach all the elements made it really enjoyable."

She added, "This was the album that I felt destined to make. In a way it’s come full circle.

"I sung 'I Dreamed A Dream' on the Britain’s Got Talent stage back in 2009 and it was right to somehow go back to my roots so to speak and focus on the genre of music that is one of my favourites."
