It’s only logical to present this week’s Cool Celeb of the Week crown to Susan Boyle, because what she has done is not only extraordinary in itself but also stands proof to the fact that the fate of a budding artist can’t be altered by a handful of critics. Susan’s debut album, I Dreamed A Dream, sold 410,000 copies in the U.K last week and set a record for first-week sales of a debut album in U.K. history.

She was booed and jeered when she took the stage of Britain’s Got Talent, but Susan persisted. She lost the finals but ended up winning hearts. She dreamed a dream... and showed the whole world that dreams do come true. Way to go, Susan!

P.S. And for those who think she’s not a celebrity, go get a life!!498906
