Susan Boyle

This 47 year old singing sensation was found on the British talent show, "Britain's Got Talent". Just a few weeks ago, Susan Boyle went on the show with big aspirations to be a professional singer, and boy did she achieve her dream. Her rendition of Les Miserables's I dreamed a dream was impeccable. When she first stepped on the stage, many of the audience jeer at her, and were laughing at her. Mainly because she didn't look like any of the conventional singers out in the market. She's not exactly younger anymore and her looks were not appealing, her hair was a mess and her eyebrows were dark and unkempt. But the moment she started singing, everyone started cheering. Her success on the show is a wake up call for us not to judge people by their looks. I have also fallen to this before, being judgmental on looks and being really superficial and cynical .. Its only human to be superficial, but I guess we should all know our limits and understand that at the end of the day, it is the real talent that outshines all else. Susan has shown the world the true meaning of talent, and I wish her all the best in the competition. She may not look like a sex goddess, but she's got the voice of an angel and her singing is just inspirational. Look at her now, people are no longer laughing at her, but laughing with her. Kudos.
