Susan Boyle is in her 40s. She lives alone, with her cat, and says she has never been kissed. As a child, she was apparently the target of bullies because of a disability.

And then she went on reality TV in Britain. People were surely expecting a punch line, but probably not this one.

To say that she has a voice and a half seriously understates the case.

I saw this last night and I bloody love it. It's not the sort of music I normally go for but my god, she has a voice and I love the way she totally slays the audience.

Also, I'm from the next county over (she's West Lothian, my folks live in Midlothian) and a lot of the older women do look and act just like this - the tight perm is an archetypal Lothian look. It makes me laugh to see a 'wee Scottish wifie' confounding everyone's expectations like that.
