April 24 2009, Published 12:35 p.m. ET
She's got the voice of a superstar. Now, she's got the look. Well, sort of.
Susan Boyle -- who's breakout performance on Britain’s Got Talent made her an international phenom --unveiled her stunning new makeover on Friday.
Her bushy eyebrows have been plucked and her wiry fly-away hair has been cut, coiffed and colored. She’s now sporting a wavy, auburn do to frame her freshly pampered face.
The formerly dowdy spinster from Scotland has become the most watched YouTube hit ever after stunning the Britain's Got Talent judges and the world with her rousing performance of I Dreamed A Dream from Les Mis.
Britian's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden had begged Boyle not to change her image, but after watching herself on TV, Susan said she was shocked at her own appearance.
Said Boyle: "I will need to sort out my dress sense and weight. It wasn't until I saw myself on TV that I realized how frumpy I was. I want to look nice, and smart. I looked like a garage. It was mortifying to see and a bit of a shock. I didn't realise I could reduce people to tears and I hope it wasn't because of that."
