SUSAN BOYLE IS EXPECTED TO WOW US WITH RECORD SALES THIS WEEK

Britain's Got Talent/Internet sensation Susan Boyle is big!!! Not just her underwear, but her record sales. Boyle's debut album, I Dreamed a Dream, is in the running to surpass Eminem's top debuting album, The Relapse, for first week sales on the Billboard 200. That album scanned 608,000 last May according the Nielsen SoundScan. WHAT? Okay, I get it. Her voice is nice, but c'mon!!! I had no idea THAT many people were so hungry for mediocre vocal/pop. I mean, Lady Gaga, Adam Lambert (both also exceeding sales expectations as well) and Rihanna (sadly underperforming with her amazing Rated R) all debut this week, and SuBo is going to beat them all. Of course, her lasting power on the charts will not be the same as theirs since she is basically a novelty act, so we'll see how the final numbers play out. I guess good for her (and her record label and Simon Cowell). Get it while the gettin's good. [source]
