Susan Boyle

OK, so maybe it’s a little premature to crown Susan as a superstar but I have been genuinely taken aback, not just by her incredible voice, but how quickly she’s become literally a “worldwide phenomenum.”

Just a week ago her regional round audition was broadcast on “Britain’s Got Talent” and now at the time of blogging, her appearance has been viewed 5 million times on Youtube.

She’s been endorsed via Twitter by Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher: He sent her a message saying: “This just made my night. Her entry read: “You saw it made me teary!”

The interest in her “across the Pond” I believe is unprecedented and can be attributed to Youtube, Twitter and the millions of blog posts her performance has garnered. Truly, whether Susan is the eventual winner or not, agents across the globe must be marking the power of social media with interest on behalf of their future charges.
