Singer is more popular than US President Barack Obama
Tuesday, 21 April 2009
Britain's Got Talent star Susan Boyle is taking YouTube by storm – her audition has now been seen over 100million times.
The clip of her singing I Dreamed A Dream from Les Miserables – which has only been online for a week – is on course to be the site's most-watched video ever.
Susan, 48, is just 18million views short of overtaking Judson Laipply’s Evolution Of Dance, according to web stats firm Visible Measures.
She is already more popular on YouTube than US President Barack Obama, 47 – his inauguration ceremony has had 18.5million clicks.
Meanwhile, Susan reckons she looks a lot plumper on screen.
‘The say television makes you look fat and it certainly did,’ she says. ‘I looked like a garage on screen and it was mortifying to see.
'I didn’t realise I could reduce people to tears and I hope it wasn’t because of that.’

Am I missing something here the headline says 100 million but youtube only shows 10 million , thats one hell of an exaggeration ? Is it a mistake or has the 100 million views video been removed the one showing the most views is now just 10% of that which would make it nowhere near the top viewed videos on youtube.

100million for all videos of the song. One Youtube song has 37m and another has around 10m. There's also other sites, not just YouTube that register views (Daily Motion, etc).
