Five facts about Susan Boyle are:

- Simon Cowell is setting up a contract with her.
- She has never been married.
- She recorded "Cry Me A River" for a charity CD.
- She has won many singing competitions, and finally went on to Britain's Got Talent.

I thought her performance was great and that really shows people not to judge a book by its cover!

She was diagnosed with having learning disabilities when she was a young child because she was deprived of oxygen when she was born.
Childhood Nickname - Simple Susie

Miss. Susan Boyle never married.

There is a big difference between the before and after photo. Though I would say it isn't to much her style she doens't really look comfortable at all. The after photo certainly looks much more like a famous star.
