Britain's Newest Celebrity

On a recent episode of Britain's Got Talent (no, I do not watch this show, but my roommate pointed this story out to me the other day and it has since become big news so I thought I'd share it with you, too), the world got a big surprise. An older woman, Susan Boyle, came out on the stage looking slightly frumpy in a golden beige dress and admitted she was 47, single, unemployed but hoping to become a professional singer, and did an odd little dance for everyone... but it was nice how open and humorous she was about herself. When asked why she had never done anything about her supposed singing talent that she was on the show for, she said she'd never been given the chance to do anything. This answer caused many eye rolls and disbelieving looks throughout the judges and audience(nearly everyone will say that, even if they're "talent" has been seen and dismissed so would you believe her?), but they let her go on and sing her song. That's when she blew everyone away! You've got to watch this video! She comes out of nowhere with this amazing voice that you would NEVER expect! It's great! Watch it!!
