Susan Boyle

Posts Tagged ‘Donny Osmond’

Susan Boyle has had some amazing success during 2009. Despite this, she maintains that she is still the same person that she was before she appeared on “Britain’s Got Talent.”

Talking to People Magazine, she said: “I still have my former life. I still live in the same house. My life hasn’t changed. I travel more. I see places I never thought I would see. There is nothing I miss, because I have everything I had before — it’s just a little more interesting now.”

However, Susan did admit that she enjoyed some perks of the job – meeting Donny Osmond, for instance. “I met Donny Osmond. He was very nice. We talked about how important it was to stay grounded,” she said. “He bought me some purple roses, and they were very beautiful.”

Susan has also spent a little money on her ex council home in Blackburn. “I have bought a few things for my house — a red couch and some cushions,” she said. “It’s important to keep your house looking nice, and it is great to be able to buy these things.”

Susan also spoke about her beloved cat, Pebbles. “Pebbles is blissfully unaware of everything that is going on. She lives with a very lovely lady while I am away working, and she is thriving. I visit her when I can, and I can travel knowing that she is in safe hands and being pampered.” Lucky Pebbles!

Meanwhile, Susan appeared on German television in their “Das Supertalent” on December 12th in Cologne, Germany. You can view her amazing performance here:

As mentioned here, Susan Boyle finally met her childhood hero, Donny Osmond, on her recent trip across the water to the US. The Mirror have now published a photo of the two of them together, which I thought you would like to see because it’s lovely! Susan looks so happy. So here it is:

Susan Boyle has really been enjoying her time in Tinsel Town, telling People it was “very exciting.” Plus – guess what – she finally got to meet Donny Osmond: “I’ve met my hero, Donny Osmond,”she giggled. (I wonder they talked about a duet?!)

“It is quite something to be in Hollywood,” she continued. “This is a world I’ve never seen before and never dreamt that I would get to see.”

She explained that her journey from Blackburn in Scotland to A list celebrity status in Hollywood has been “quite something,” adding that it was: “Nothing a woman like me was used to. I have found Americans to be incredibly warm and friendly and very open.”

In addition to filming Dancing with the Stars, Susan has been recording footage for her TV special which will be airing in December. She has also visited Univeral Studios.

Susan will soon be returning to the UK, but the Americans can fear not. Susan says: “Everyone is so wonderful to me, I can’t wait to come back and visit again.”

Meanwhile, Donny Osmond spoke to “The Insider” about his meeting with Susan.  He said, “I took her some purple roses and we had a great visit. We sang songs together…She knew all of my songs…I sang a song to her and she sang it with me. It was really special.”

Susan Boyle is set to duet with Donny Osmond in Las Vegas, according to an article in the Daily Mirror.

The Puppy Love singer, Donny, now aged 51, has asked Susan to be the guest of honour at the Las Vegas review show he promotes with his sister Marie.

Susan can’t wait to appear on stage alongside Donny. And who can blame her!

An insider said: “Donny has written to Susan inviting her to duet with him and she can’t wait. It’s a dream come true.

“She idolised him as a girl and still has all his records. He’s a genuine hero and inspiration to her.”

Susan might perform with Donny as early as next month!

Donny Osmond has invited Susan Boyle to perform a duet with him.

This would be another dream come true for Susan Boyle, as she has already said that listening to Donny Osmond when she was younger inspired her to sing. Indeed, she says she was “obsessed” with him when she was a teenager. Gerard Boyle, Susan’s brother, said: “His posters were all over her walls. She would lock herself in her room and play the records over and over again singing along as loud as possible. It used to drive me mad when I would hear it start up the hundredth time. But our mum would say ‘Leave her alone, it’s all she’s got’.”

Donny Osmond has said: “I would die to do a duet with her.”

Well Donny, it looks like you’ll have to take your place in the queue behind Elaine Paige!
