　　When we talk about stars, especially women stars, it seems that they are always young, beautiful and own charming body shapes. But recently a Britain's Got Talent star has changed our views （观点）completely.

　　Simon Cowell, one of the judges（裁判，法官）of the talent show spoke that he was amazed at Ms Boyle's voice. "This lady came up , and I was thinking,'This will take five seconds and I can go to have a cup of tea .'That changed when she began to sing I Dreamed a Dream from Less Miserables. She knew we were going to have that reaction and just to see that look of satisfaction on her face -it was one of my favorite moments," Cowell said.

　　The performance was posted on line and before long, and the Scottish woman has been famous all over the world.

　　 Speaking from her home in Scotland ,Ms Boyle said that she hadn't thought of changing her appearance. She said that her friend helped her with make-up.

　　 Ms Boyle also spoke of the reason she first began to find out her vocal（发音的，嗓音的） talents. "I was kind of slow at school , so getting something like singing was a good way of hiding behind that , and then it built my confidence.（自信）"
