SUSAN BOYLE

Susan Magdalene Boyle (born April 1, 1961) is a Scottish singer who appeared as a contestant on the reality show “Britain Got Talent” on April 11, 2009.

Her first album was released in November 2009 and made her debut, becoming the best-selling CD on the world charts.

The global interest in Boyle was caused by the contrast between her powerful voice and the simple appearance of her on stage. The contrast between the audience’s first impression of her and her applause during and after her performance elicited reactions from the international media and the Internet.
