Susan Boyle- greatest ever youtube hit in a week
Everyone here in UK is just talking about this lady.
The number of youtube hits has now been > 100million
That's five times more than President Obama's first presidential speech!
When Susan Boyle walked on Britain’s Got Talent’s stage on Saturday 11th April, the judges and the audience thought that she was going to be rubbish and just laughed at her. Her appearance made everyone snigger, making them think she was going to be an instant failure. It was basically a case of judging a book by it’s cover.
However, when she opened her mouth to sing “I Dreamed a Dream” from Les Misérables, everyone was shocked: her beautiful voice surprised everyone. The judges were so impressed with her performance, they gave her the “biggest yes in three seasons” and even brought tears to Amanda’s eye.
Susan is the baby of nine children and lives in West Lothian with her cat named Pebbles. She’s unemployed, and gave up singing to look after her sick mother who died at the age of 91 in 2007. She apparently has learning disabilities as well.
And she claims that she has never gone out on a date or kissed by a man before.
Websites have been dedicated to her..
Souvenirs are now available as well..
She is also now in Wikipedia
She has been dubbed "The Woman Who Shut Up Simon Cowell"
This competition is only in its first round this year and Cowell is reported to be setting up a contract with Boyle with his Syco Music company.
