       Boyle suffered a personal loss in 1997, when her father passed away.After his death.Boyle put her big dreams on hold to care for her sick mother Bridget Boyle.The mother and daughter often talked of Susan's possible fame.Bridget Boyle encouraged her daughter to take part in singing competitions.“She was the one who said I should enter Britain's Got Talent.We used to watch it together.” Susan later told reporters.“She thought I would win.”

       The 47-year-old Scottish woman's plain looks provided a sharp contrast (对比) to her powerfully beautiful voice.The performance astonished the audience and the judges.Online videos of her performance totaled over 40 million views within a week.Although she failed to win the final of Britain's Got Talent, Susan Boyle became globally popular.Her first album I Dreamed A Dream has sold over five million copies.
