susan boyle is an every woman. That means that everyone, er, can relate to her. Everyone feels like they are similar to her. She's not american, she's scottish. But the Americans love a underdog story. And i think this could be proof that Andy warholl was right about everybody being famous for 15 minutes. I'm going to interview some of my friends and ask them what they think of susanBoyle. So i will post those interviews in another podcast on morrow night. Ok, next week we'll hear how idioms work when it comes to language.
This podcast is about Susan Boyle, the Scottish singer who recently became very famous all over the world on YouTube. The language section is about idioms to describe personality.
The feature section is about her and her performance of "I Dreamed a Dream" from the musical Les Miserables. Why was it so special? Why have so many people in the world seen it? Why has she become so famous? Why do the Americans love her?
