London
(ANI):
Singing
superstar
Susan
Boyle"s
debut
album
has
broken
all
previous
sale
records
even
before
its
release.
The
Scottish
singer"s
song,
'I
Dreamed
A
Dream" became
the
largest
global
CD
pre-order
in
the
history
of
Internet
website
Amazon.
Tens
of
thousands
of
copies
of
her
album
have
been
sold,
despite
that
fact
that
it
is
not
being
released
until
November
23.
The
cover
features
the
48-year-old
Scottish
star
smiling
in
a
sparkly
sequin

Susan
became
an
overnight
reality
TV
and
Internet
star
after
her
appearance
on
ITV
show
'Britain"s
Got
Talent" on
April
11.
She
came
second
in
the
show,
behind
dance
troupe
Diversity,
but
won
fans
worldwide
including
actress
Demi
Moore,
47,
and
singer
Elaine
Paige,
61.
Initially
dubbed
the
Hairy
Angel
because
of
her
unkempt
looks,
Susan
has
now
had
a
full
makeover.
“Eight
months
ago,
no
one
was
aware
of
the
talents
of
Susan
Boyle,"
The
Daily
Express
quoted
Julian
Monaghan,
head
of
music
buying
at
Amazon.co.uk,
as
saying.
“Now,
she
has
generated
more
Amazon
pre-order
CD
sales
globally
than
any
other
artist.
That
is
an
incredible
achievement
and
is
testament
to
the
fact
that
she
has
captured
the
hearts
of
people
all
over
the
world,"
she
added.
