According to British church
leaders, Susan Boyle will sing for Pope Benedict XVI during
his visit to Britain.
The Pope will make his visit between September 16 and 19. Boyle was
a former church choir member, and
now she is a world-famous singer. Britain hopes her heavenly voice
will please the Pope.
Boyle achieved global stardom when she sang ¡°I Dreamed a Dream¡± from
the musical Les Miserables on a TV show last year. People all over
the world were wowed by her beautiful voice, which doesn¡¯t go with her lousy looks. Thanks to her amazing voice and singing
skills, she gained international fame.
Now,
Boyle is one of the most popular singers in the world.
Her first album, I Dreamed a Dream, was released in November, 2009.
Her debut album was a great success.
It became a best-selling album upon its
release and went straight to number one in the music charts. In fact, her album became
the biggest selling album
in the world in just 6 weeks!
Now, Boyle is ready to sing for the Pope. Last Monday, a spokesman for the Catholic
Church in Scotland said the singer would be a great part of the events
planned for the Pope¡¯s visit in September. ¡°We hope she could sing
for the Pope during his visit. Her amazing voice will certainly make the precious visitor happy,¡±
said the spokesman.
It will
be Pope Benedict XVI¡¯s first visit to Britain. In fact, it will also
be the first official Papal visit to Britain.
Pope John Paul II visited the country for 6 days in 1982, but it wasn¡¯t
an official one. These days, British Catholic
Church is busy preparing programs and events for his visit.
On September 16, the Pope will be welcomed by the Queen
and the Duke of Edinburgh at the Palace of
Holyroodhouse in Edinburgh, the Queen¡¯s official residence in Scotland.
Let¡¯s hope Susan Boyle¡¯s heavenly voice will make
the Pope¡¯s first visit to Britain very special and memorable! |
