Susan Magdalane Boyle (born 1 April 1961) is a Scottish singer who came to international public attention when she appeared as a contestant on the TV programme ''Britain's Got Talent'' on 11 April 2009, singing "I Dreamed a Dream" from ''''. Her first album was released in November 2009 and debuted as the number one best-selling album on charts around the globe. Susan Boyle's initial appearance on the talent show fired public imagination when her modest stage introduction and thick speaking accent left audience, viewers and judges alike unprepared for the power and expression of her mezzo-soprano voice. Before she had finished the song's opening phrase a standing ovation for Boyle had erupted. An international media and Internet response coincided. Within nine days of the audition, videos of Boyle—from the show, various interviews and her 1999 rendition of "Cry Me a River"—had been watched over 100 million times. ''I Dreamed a Dream'' is ranked fourth in its first week sales according to the Official Chart Company in the United Kingdom. The success was continued with her second album, ''The Gift'' (2010), and was followed by Boyle's third album, ''Someone to Watch Over Me'', released on 31 October 2011. On 12 May 2012, Susan returned to ''Britain's Got Talent'' to perform as a guest in the final singing "You'll See". The following day, she performed at Windsor Castle for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Pageant singing "Mull of Kintyre". Boyle's net worth was estimated at £22 million in April 2012.
