Susan Boyle’s Album Breaks Records
Posted on 02. Dec, 2009 by rubber chicken in Entertainment, Video
Who would have guessed, when she first stepped out on the Britain’s Got Talent stage, that Susan Boyle would end up breaking the record for most albums sold in one week?! Or beating out Barbra Streisand, Brittany Spears, Mariah Carey, and every other woman for best-selling debut album for a female artist? Maybe the first 47 years of her life were dull, but 48 has been a whirlwind.
Boyle’s album “I Dreamed a Dream” debuted this week at #1 on the Billboard charts, after selling 701,000 copies. And it’s not only big in the U.S., it’s sold another 410,000 copies in the UK, making it the fastest-selling debut album in UK history.
In case you can’t get enough Boyle, the TV Guide Network will be airing a special, “I Dreamed a Dream: The Susan Boyle Story,” on Sunday, Dec. 13. The show will include her biography, interviews, special guests, and performances.
