USA Goes SuBo A-Go-Go
November 24, 2009 by Mark Glenning
Britain’s Got Talent star Susan Boyle wowed America with a performance on the Today show yesterday.
The 48-year-old Scottish singer performed at the Rockefeller Plaza in New York to promote her new album I Dreamed A Dream.
She sang versions of the Rolling Stones’ ‘Wild Horses’ and Julie London’s classic ‘Cry Me a River’
Miss Boyle rocketed to fame seven months ago as a contestant on Britain’s Got Talent, singing ‘I Dreamed A Dream’ from the musical Les Miserables which was watched by ten million viewers.
She said: “I’ve grown up a bit. I’ve become more of a lady. I don’t swivel my hips as much, you know? It feels very surreal, as if it’s not really happening.
“From no pressure to having all this pressure, I found it a bit suffocating. It was such a short space of time, it felt like a demolition ball really. It really came at me like a demolition ball.
She added: “The things which mattered to me before ‘Britain’s Got Talent,’ they still matter to me now: my faith, my friends, family. I’m not so cooped up now; I’m part of the world.”
Miss Boyle has even been credited by The Vancouver Sun for a surge in ticket sales for Les Miserables.
