SuBo Outsells Whitney!

No longer a hairy angel but a bona fide top selling recording star…
Susan Boyle, you know that rather odd woman from West Lothian, Scotland who made her mark on Britain’s Got Talent a few months back is outselling Whitney Houston‘s dismal comeback album… Can you believe!
‘Dreamed A Dream‘ doesn’t even go on sale until November 23, but tens of thousands of copies have already been sold to die-hard fans pre-ordering on the U.S. edition of Amazon.
A recent photo shoot show’s SuBo looking happy finally after going through months of public turmoil. What a fickle bunch we British are. One minute Boyle is the darling of the people, after five minutes performing on national TV and a few weeks later she is beaten into second place in the final by the street dance act ‘Diversity’.
Susan’s unkempt appearance led to her being cruelly dubbed the hairy angel, but now in this photo from her album she looks every inch the star as she poses in a Scottish field, wearing a stylish purple dress. Well in hindsight it was probably all for the best, they say every loser wins!
Surprisingly Susan also covers Madonna’s 1995 hit ‘You’ll See‘ on the album… Perhaps a message her critics?
A source told The Sun: ‘Susan chose it herself – it’s a song she has loved for years. She sang it at auditions for TV shows and music contests when she used to be cruelly turned away by people. At the end, when she was sometimes reduced to tears, she used to say, “You’ll see”
Go, go SuBo!
