Susan Boyle to get a record deal whether she wins or not

It appears that Simon Cowell will give Susan a record deal, even in the unlikely event that she doesn’t win. However, Susan is more interested in finding herself a man. The 47 year old admitted on Saturday that she has “never been married, never been kissed.”

Despite the show being British, Susan has attracted fans from all around the world. The Sun reports, “Radio stations and newspapers from the US to Australia viewed the clip online and are now lining up to talk to her.” This website has only been online for, at time of writing, 7 hours and has already attracted over 400 visits from the USA, the UK, the Netherlands, Australia, the Philippines, Canada, Japan, Singapore, Ireland and Germany. Susan says, “I had no idea the show was a worldwide thing.”

Susan hopes the show will find her love, she says she doesn’t “intend to be alone for long.”

Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher have given their support to Britain's Got Talent contestant Susan Boyle.

The A-List Hollywood couple apparently spent Saturday night curled up in front of internet site YouTube and were blown away by 48-year-old Scottish charity worker Susan's performance of I Dreamed A Dream from West End musical Les Miserables.

Ashton, 31, posted a link on social networking website Twitter to Susan's singing on the ITV talent show and wrote: "This just made my night."

Demi, 46, wrote a Tweet in reply saying: "You saw it made me teary!"

Just over 1.4 million people 'follow' the celebrity couple on Twitter and thousands clicked on the link to watch Susan sing.

The church worker, from Blackburn, West Lothian, is now an internet hit with her performance netting over five million hits on YouTube. She has only made it through the first audition and is already being compared to previous Britain's Got Talent winner, opera star Paul Potts.

Susan, who confessed on the show she has "never been kissed", is now said to have been approached for interviews and performances as far away as the US and Australia.

Simon Cowell is reportedly already lining up a record deal for her, and she has helped boost the song's popularity.

Cast recordings of the track from Les Mis have entered the official midweek singles chart and the iTunes chart.

Susan is already the bookmakers favourite to win the talent show, with odds of 5/2.

She has a soaring, beautiful voice that could grace a heavenly choir - but self-taught singer Susan Boyle has the hair-do from hell.

I dont watch this show on TV here ( Hollands got talent) because I cant stand all the half wits and cracked voices who insist 'my family think Im great'!

I heard about Ms Boyle via the Dutch news and after watching the video have to agree shes fantastic. One discovery like this almost makes up for all the half wits!

Some of the acts that they say 'You are going through to the final!' aren't even talented and make you wonder what the Queen would think of them! Take DJ Talent he has a good beat in the background to his ramblings but his MC-ing is just irritating i really don't know why he got into the finals...then there was a scottish tease and some blokes stripping off whilst putting handbags next to their genitals! How can this get into the finals? It is aimed on the judges judgement without taking into consideration the real world!! As if the Queen would be allowed to see these fiascos!
