The Britain’s Got Talent sensation launched Susan’s Search, a competition to find a duet partner, last month. Tens of thousands of entrants posted footage of themselves singing Silent Night, and SuBo has now picked a winner: New York paramedic and mother-of-three Amber Stassi.

The ambulance worker said she was amazed to receive a phone call from the I Dreamed A Dream singer with the good news. “I can’t believe I won. I’m thrilled that I’ve spoken with Susan – and that she and even Simon Cowell have seen my audition. This is crazy!

“Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would win this competition,” Stassi continued. “To receive this gift from Susan is truly a blessing and if I can pass this gift on to someone else who needs it like I did, that would be perfect.

“We have had some hard times. If my father was here now he would be so proud… This is a chance to give my kids a good memory and maybe a chance at a better life.”

Susan admitted she was overwhelmed by the number of high quality entries from right across the globe. “I never thought so many people would want to take part in this and I want to thank everyone. Amber really stood out for me though, I enjoyed her audition clip very much; she has a lovely, very beautiful voice.”

The winner will now fly to London to meet Susan and record a track for her next album, The Gift, due out in November.

From thousands of entries Susan chose American medic Amber Stassi to fly to London and join her in the recording studio.

Paramedic Amber Stassi beat off competition from thousands of hopefuls to land the chance to sing alongside the Blackburn spinster and feature on new album The Gift. And the 33-year-old admitted it was a dream come true after receiving a phone call from SuBo herself to break the news.

“Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would win this competition,” she said.

“To receive this gift from Susan is truly a blessing and if I can pass this gift on to someone else who needs it like I did, that would be perfect. 

“If my father was here now he would be so proud, I know he’s here in spirit, but this is a chance to give my kids a good memory and maybe a chance at a better life.

“I can’t believe I spoke with Susan – and that Susan and even Simon Cowell has seen my audition. This is crazy!”

The mother of three will fly to London later this month and join Susan in the recording studio after impressing with her performance of Silent Night.

“I never thought so many people would want to take part in this and I want to thank everyone,” said Susan.

“It was very hard to choose a winner as there are so many talented singers around the world. Amber really stood out for me though.

“I enjoyed her audition clip very much.  She has a lovely, very beautiful voice.”

Unlike the glamorous dolls like Lady Gaga or Britney or a Miley, Susan (an elderly lady pushing 50) is serenely quiet and maintains a low profile. Hence, her legions of fans don’t often get to hear of her with the regularity of an Angelina or a Pattinson.

Yet, come Christmas and you shall be bewitched by the mesmerising spell cast from the wands of this Scotland special as the lovely Susan braces herself to invade your house through your TV sets.

Susan is all set to star in the Christmas special episode of the hit US TV sitcom ‘Glee’ and, reportedly, shall step into the robes of a dinner lady in the school.

Besides, some hit singles of the iconic Paul McCartney shall also be resurrected. In fact, the brain behind the show Ryan Murphy gleefully beams, “I received some fantastic mixed tapes from Paul McCartney a couple of weeks ago. I thought I was being punked! It came out of the blue in a package, handwritten, and it had two CDs and it said ‘Hi Ryan, I hope you will consider some of these songs for ‘Glee’. I had heard that he is a fan of the show. I was gob-smacked… so of course we are going to do something with him.”

With Susan and Paul on your plate, a turkey would be just an icing on the cake……..

According to the News Of The World Susan, who found fame on 2009 Britain’s Got Talent season, has been secretly measured up for the waxwork, which will go on display at the London tourist attraction later this year. She will be one of eight new waxwork figures due to debut at the attraction, each costing around £150,000.

“She’s very excited about this,” a source told the paper. “Susan would never in her wildest dreams have ever imagined she’d one day be a waxwork at Madame Tussauds. It’s unbelievable.”

The model is expected to feature Susan’s original look – complete with dowdy clothes and unkempt hair – rather than the smarter look she adopted after becoming famous. And Susan will be hoping that the figure proves popular, so as to avoid being melted down in the future – as has happened to other celebrity waxworks. Former X Factor winner Shayne Ward is among those whose waxwork has been removed and destroyed, while veteran presenter Terry Wogan had his waxwork melted down to make models of Ant and Dec.

“Figures are often melted down and re-made into someone new,” said a museum source. But Susan Boyle is hugely popular – especially among Americans. It’s a big coup to get her.”

Susan Boyle recently sparked controversy with the terrible news that her managemement is only sparing her a weekly allowance of £300 despite selling millions of records with her debut album I Dreamed A Dream. But this did not stop the middle-aged sensation as she reportedly purchased her dream house.

This may lead you to think differently of the simpleton that is Susan Boyle. But no, her dream house is not an extravagant mansion overseeing a beautiful beach. The X factor winner’s dream home is actually the house she had been living in for forty years. But even after she rose to fame in 2008, the crooner opted to rent the property instead of buying it for herself. It was only recently when her beloved parents passed away that she decided to claim the property for herself for a measly £35,600.

A source relates about the house, “The house she grew up in is her last strong link to her beloved parents since they passed away. She can’t wait to move into the new house. But any time she gets homesick, she just needs to walk around the corner.”

CNN visits the proud Scottish hometown of Susan Boyle, and neighbors share! [April 2009] The world is smitten with British sensation Susan Boyle and though her appearance has been described as “dowdy” and prompted calls for a makeover fans want the powerful singer to know they love her just the way she is.

Boyle told CNN this morning that she’s overwhelmed by her sudden notoriety. “I’m gobsmacked, absolutely gobsmacked,” she said. The word “gobsmacked” is British slang to mean astonished or astounded. But Boyle herself also said she wouldn’t want the instant fame to change her.

“I wouldn’t want to change myself too much because that would really make things a bit false,” she said Friday in an interview with CNN.

“I want to receive people as the real me, a real person.” Boyle, 47, burst into the spotlight last week when she performed the song “I Dreamed a Dream” on the reality show “Britain’s Got Talent.”

At least two members of the show’s judging panel have said they judged Boyle on her looks when she first appeared on stage before them. Based on the somewhat disheveled state of her baggy dress and wild hair they admitted they didn’t expect much.

“It’s a very shallow thing to say but, obviously, the minute she walked onstage we all, and the audience, completely judged her on her appearance and everything else. And I hate saying that. But, you know, that true cliche, we judged a book by its cover,” said judge Amanda Holden in an interview Friday on the CBS …

The former journalist scoffs at notions that Boyle would have been better off without the fame, and he gives his take on why being insanely popular is not such a bad thing for the “I Dreamed A Dream” singer. 

Boyle has featured in faith impact US exhibit ‘Futurama’ as a strike on one-eyed outlander Leela”s behind, reports the Sun. And Susan the conversation roil – vocal by Scotch chitchat exhibit patron Craig Ferguson – modify performs the singer’s worldwide blast I Dreamed A Dream.

Leela admits she is “ashamed” of Susan when it is unconcealed on her side by man case playwright in the episode. Fry screams: “Argh what the inferno is that?”

When Leela says the roil is nothing, Susan shouts back: “I”m not nothing. All my chronicle I”ve been titled nothing.”
