The Hollywood Gossip: Classic Susan Boyle: "The Way We Were"

The world may have just discovered Susan Boyle last month.


But those that attended a local talent show in Scotland - in 1989 - have known about this singer's vocal chops for the last 20 years.


Some dude named Gerry McGuinness, who was in the audience that night at Motherwell Football Club's social club, has uncovered a tape of the Britain's Got Talent contestant singing "The Way We Were.




Classic Susan Boyle


"She was so shy, but she was also very attractive back then. She turned a few heads when she came in," he said. "It's great she is finally getting some recognition."


McGuinness added that Boyle actually did not win the contest that year. Will the same upset take place on Britain's Got Talent?


Yes, if Hollie Steel has her way!
