Susan Boyle: The "Hairy Angel" of Blackburn
Manage episode 334778929 series 2815329
A Scottish Podcast About Scotland!
This week we look back at the incredible and inspiring and bonkers story of Susan Boyle; the local singer who came on to the Britain's Got Talent stage in 2009 looking "old", "frumpy", "weird" and many other unflattering adjectives, only to blow the judges, the audience and the world away.
After her appearance she became the biggest ever viral sensation to hit social media. Her rise to fame was devastatingly fast, having an impact on her mental health and well being, but ultimately changing her life forever, while giving her the influence to big time Obama!
We also discuss how she got some of her terrible nicknames.
If you hear some atmospheric rumblings in this episode it's because Chris was recording in a storm. It only adds to the drama of Su Bo's incredible life and career.
