The whole world is gaga over Susan Boyle and her angelic voice and, not to anyone's surprise here at Gambling911.com, some of the British online gambling websites have begun to offer odds on the overnight sensation. Sites like Paddy Power, which is the largest in Boyle's native Ireland, have expressed cynicism over whether she can actually win or not. They've listed her with 1-3 odds. For us here at Gambling911.com, that seems like a pretty good bet.
From the folks at Paddy Power:
Cynics among us will suggest there was something fishy about Susan Boyle's appearance on Britain's Got Talent - and we don't mean her body odour. Some have implicated that her doughty appearance and simple lifestyle were exaggerated to increase the impact of her majestic voice. With Ant and Dec involved, we bet the price of a phone call that it was. Some 30 million YouTube hits later, the Scottish beauty and 48 year old virgin has a world audience and is to go on a date with Piers Morgan. Morgan said Boyle had "great appeal and charm" and invited her out as both were interviewed on American talk show Larry King Live. Cherries for desert? Is backing Boyle to top the US Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart in 2009 @ 2/1 virgin on the ridiculous?
Born in 1961, Susan Boyles is a Scottish amateur singer and church volunteer who came to public attention on 11 April 2009, when she appeared as a contestant on the third series of Britain's Got Talent. Boyle found fame when she sang "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Misérables in the competition's first round.
When she first stepped out onto the stage, audience members sneered and snickered at the poor woman.
