NEVER judge a book by it's cover (The Susan Boyle story)



Do not EVER EVER EVER judge someone based on their appearances... sometimes THAT someone got something very very special given to them by God. The best example is Susan Boyle. Although the clip has been removed, you can still click at YouTube link above. As you can see, the faces of the audiences showed that they doubted the talent that Susan Boyle wanted to show. There was one girl making face when Susan said that she dreams to be a professional singer, showed that people usually judge a book by it's cover..if I'm not mistaken, you can see the as-if-she-is-the-most-beautiful-girl-in-the-whole-world-biyatch at minutes 1.24. Even the infamous Mr. Simon Cowell was speechless...hahahaha....

The phenomenal Miss Susan Boyle's story is very touching and inspiring. Read the article that I copied from Yahoo! Buzz :

"American Idol" isn't the only launching pad for aspiring singers. Across the pond, "
Britain's Got Talent" scored a huge boost in the Buzz after an unassuming contestant gave an amazing performance.

Susan Boyle (remember that name) became a Web phenomenon after singing "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Miserables. The performance brought the audience to its feet and left the judges (including Simon Cowell) either speechless or in tears.

Before going on stage, Ms. Boyle admitted some self-deprecating facts about herself (she's never been kissed and lives alone with her cat, Pebbles). For those reasons and more, audiences were expecting the female William Hung. They were wrong.

Lookups on the sudden star posted huge gains. A no-name just the other day, Ms. Boyle quickly surged into our top 5,000 overall searches. Blogs and gossip rags went wild. The Mirror jumped on the story, reporting that while Ms. Boyle thought she "looked like a garage" on TV, she received a standing ovation when she showed up at her local church.

Other sources write that as a child, Ms. Boyle was the target of bullies because of a disability. But, with her newfound fame, she is getting the last laugh. In fact, she's already meeting with officials from Mr. Cowell's Sony BMG label. This may have been the first you've heard of her, but it certainly won't be the last.

Read the lyric of the song that were sung by Susan Boyle. As if she was telling her life story. Very touching. Here is the lyric from Les Miserables:


I Dreamed a Dream
I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When hope was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving.

Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used
And wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung
No wine untasted.

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame.

And still I dream he'll come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms
We cannot weather...

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed
The dream I dreamed.
