Susan Boyle shot to fame in the most unlikely way, entering a talent contest where most of the contestants were half her age.

Susan Boyle's Rising Star

The Youtube footage of her performance became an internet sensation, receiving millions of hits. In that now famous clip a disbelieving audience's jaw dropped at the sight of a middle aged, portly woman that didn't fit the typical pop picture.

This was not any regular music show contestant. Boyle was decidedly un-hip. Yet once she opened her mouth and began to sing, all that changed. The audience was captivated by something beyond a spectacular voice: authenticity. As Susan Boyle transfixed the audience with her moving rendition of I Dreamed A Dream, it was obvious that every lyric she sang resonated personally. One wondered, as Boyle’s voice soared, how much of the song she considered autobiographical.
