Susan Boyle confirms she’ll return to Britain’s Got Talent stage ten years after wowing judges with first appearance
BRITAIN’S Got Talent legend Susan Boyle has confirmed she will return to the show a decade after wowing judges with her haunting rendition of I Dreamed A Dream.
The 58-year-old singer, dubbed SuBo, will sing for Simon Cowell and co on the London Palladium stage on Saturday – but said she was sad “Piersy baby” Morgan is no longer on the panel.
Speaking about her return at the London Palladium, the Scot told the Edinburgh Evening News: “I’m returning to where it all began. The Britain’s Got Talent stage.
“I’m performing the song that started it all, I Dreamed A Dream to celebrate ten years.”
Asked how it was returning to the stage, she said: “It was wonderful. Like going home to be with the family.
“We recorded this in January at the Palladium, so almost a mirror image of 2009, except I was more put together than the first audition and probably a little bit more professional, and it was filmed in London.
“It was great to see my boss Simon, Ant and Dec and of course Amanda. It was a really great experience and of course there was not the pressure of 2009.
“It was great to see the old faces and also perform for David and Alesha, because last time it was Piersy baby that was on the judges panel.
“He was one of the reasons I went to audition in the first place, I thought Piers was rather special!
“It was at the Palladium in London and such an iconic venue, I would never turn down the opportunity of singing there and I’d never turn down the opportunity to go back and support BGT.”
Susan shocked the nation when she failed to win the third series of Britain’s Got Talent, after leaving the judge open-mouthed with her stunning audition.
In the end, Ashley and Jordan Banjo’s street dance troupe Diversity were crowned the winners.
Nonetheless, Susan went on to amass an estimated £22 million fortune – which she has said she’s barely touched – and became a household name.
SuBo recently performed on America’s Got Talent: The Champions, a US show where the former stars competed against each other.
However, she lost out to 27-year-old magician Shin Lim.
