Summary

One year ago, a modest middle-aged woman from a village in Scotland was catapulted to global fame when the YouTube video of her audition for Britain’s Got Talent touched the hearts of millions all over the world. From singing karaoke in local pubs to live performance with an 80-piece orchestra in Japan’s legendary Budokan Arena and a record-breaking debut album, Susan Boyle has become an international superstar.

This astonishing transformation has not always been easy for Susan, faced with all the trappings of celebrity, but in the whirlwind of attention and expectation, she has always found calm and clarity in music. Susan was born to sing.

Now, for the first time, Susan tells the story of her life and the challenges she has struggled to overcome with faith, fortitude, and an unfailing sense of humour.

Profile Image for Matt H

Honest and refreshing.

Down to earth start to an amazing career, may she long continue. Pity it wasn't left for a year or so and we could have had a brief insight to the first couple of years of this new chapter in her life. However, heart warming story of family and those lost.
