Boyle stars in most-watched net clip
BRITAIN'S Got Talent runner-up Susan Boyle was the star of the most-watched clip on video website YouTube this year, figures showed yesterday.
The Scottish singer's rendition of I Dreamed A Dream on the television show was watched more than 120 million times by viewers across the world.
She netted more than three times the number of internet hits achieved by the second most-watched video of 2009.
The 48-year-old church worker from Blackburn, West Lothian, became an international star after her performance of the hit song from Les Miserables wowed the audience and judges.
Boyle's album recently went straight to number one in the charts, and achieved the best first week's sale for a debut album.
