Susan Boyle’s journey from an unemployed charity worker with a cat named Pebbles to an international superstar is nothing short of inspirational.
Her unforgettable audition on “Britain’s Got Talent” in 2008, where she wowed the judges and viewers with her rendition of “I Dreamed a Dream” from Les Misérables, catapulted her to fame overnight.
Boyle’s remarkable rise to stardom resulted in her making $6.8 million in her first year as a superstar.
Despite her newfound success, she remained down-to-earth and chose to continue living in her childhood home in Blackburn, Scotland, which she purchased in 2010. She believes in staying grounded and connected to her roots.
