Susan BoyleSusan Boyle first appeared on the program on 11 April 2009. Within a few days, her audition video has been viewed on the internet several hundred million times. As I write this article, Boyle’s debut album, I Dreamed a Dream (2009) remains as the UK best-selling debut album of all time, beating previous record holder, Spirit by Leona Lewis. In her first year of fame, Boyle made a fortune of £5 million with the release of I Dreamed a Dream and its lead off singles, “I Dreamed a Dream” and “Wild Horses“. She was also nominated in the 53rd and 54th Grammy Awards. Read More on Wikipedia.

Enjoy
