Vinky's World

A video clip of the 47-year-old singing I Dreamed A Dream has been watched more than six million times, with fans including Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher.

Unemployed Susan, from West Lothian in Scotland, has now received interview requests from as far away as Australia and the United States.

She even featured on America’s prestigious NBC Today Show, where presenter Kathie Lee Gifford was moved to tears by the performance.

The host was forced to reach for a sock - being used for the next segment — to dry her eyes after watching the emotional clip.
And although Susan has only made it through the first audition, she is already being compared to previous Britain’s Got Talent winner opera star Paul Potts.

Britain’s Got Talent judge Simon Cowell is reportedly already lining up a record deal for her, and she has helped boost the song’s popularity.

Cast recordings of the track have entered the official midweek singles chart and the iTunes chart.

Susan is already the bookmakers’ favourite to win the talent show.

Earlier this week, Boyle revealed that she was battling deep personal anguish as she sang the track from the West End stage show Les Miserables.

It was the first time she had sung in public since the death of her mother two years ago.

“Because of the bereavement, I had decided to give up singing,” she said.

“Mum was my life. I cared for her. But she urged me to enter this show as she said I had a fantastic voice.

“So this year, I thought I’d go for it, and I can’t believe what has happened. I hope my mum and dad are looking down on me — they’ll be so proud.’

And her quiet approach has won her fans in Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher.

The Hollywood couple apparently spent last Saturday night curled up in front of YouTube and were blown away by Susan’s performance of the song.

Kutcher, 31, posted a link on social networking website Twitter to Susan’s singing on the talent show and wrote: “This just made my night.”

Moore, 46, wrote a Tweet in reply saying: “You saw it made me teary!
