CNN’s Zain Verjee takes a look a what Susan Boyle’s life was like before she became famous. The Scottish woman who became an Internet singing sensation after her performance on a British talent show said Friday she doesn’t want fame to change her.

  5. Beauty is more than the exterior physical appearance. It’s a combo of inside and outside. Based on Susan’s combination of both, she is beautiful.

  9. I don’t understand what she said at the end. I am familiar with the British accent, but this is too much for me to handle:) I adore her, of course, just like millions of people worldwide.

  11. I know that it is very difficult to take care of two declining parents. I think it’s endearing that she lives alone with her cat Pebbles. I’d like to send her a card. I’ll have to find out where she receives fan mail. I wish her all the best. To me she represents the spirit of Great Britain.

  13. We here in the USA are not familiar with your use of “I’m gobsmacked,” but I’m guessing that the expression means that you are both surprised and pleased. You have an adoring public audience now. Please come to America to visit us too. Love you always.

  16. Susan Boyle is a BEAutiful human being.
    She is gracious, humble, very wise, along with having an incredible heart – which she wears out on her sleeve & in every word she speaks & in every song. Her precious heart just radiates thru her all – that’s what makes Susan, her speaking, & her singing so spectacular! No bad mouthing or insulting words can even come close to silencing the real TRUTH about Susan Boyle! GOD speed dear Susan now & for all of your tomorrows !
    ♥♥♥♥

  22. The U.S has a similar feel good story, Donald Braswell came in 4th on AGT last year. On his first audition he came out in a crumpled business suit and the crowd was mocking him like they did Susan and America was worse, they started booing him, but instead of running off the stage, he kept singing and his voice is a God given gift that turned the crowd around to where they were giving him a standing ovation like they did Susan. Check out Your Raise Me Up on Youtube. Susan is awesome!
