Record breaking Britain’s Got Talent star Susan Boyle has made UK music history again by becoming the first female artist ever to have three consecutive albums debut at No.1 in the UK album chart in less than two years.
No other female solo singer in the 65 year history of the Official UK charts had achieved the feat within the first week of the albums being released – but the highly anticipated album 'Someone to Watch Over Me’, from the international singing sensation who’s amassed fans worldwide, stormed to the number one spot in the Official UK chart again.
In 2009 the Britain’s Got Talent star’s debut album ‘I Dreamed a Dream’ became the biggest selling album in the world and fastest selling album in the history of the charts – selling over 10 million copies - and breaking all pre-order sales records on Amazon. In 2010 Susan Boyle became the only solo artist in history to have the double #1 album spot in the US and the UK twice in less than 12 months, with her album ‘The Gift as’ well as being the fastest selling Christmas album.
Susan is absolutely thrilled that she’s done it again, and has said: “This is fantastic news!! I am delighted, excited and overwhelmed. I want to say a very big thank you to all those who helped make this possible. I never thought anything like this would happen when I started back in 2009. One thing is for sure I’ll be cracking open the champagne tonight and celebrating. This is just wonderful. Wow!”
And it wasn’t just her that is loving her success - her mentor and label boss Simon Cowell wrote “I'm absolutely delighted for Susan. She's a total superstar and I'm incredibly proud of her.”
