IT HAS BECOME ONE OF THE MOST HOTLY ANTICIPATED ALBUM OF THE YEAR. AND AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS OF WAITING, EAGER FANS HAVE BEEN REWARDED FOR THEIR PATIENCE WITH A SNEAK PEEK OF SUSAN BOYLE'S DEBUT ALBUM COVER. THE STUNNING BLACK AND WHITE PORTRAIT FOR 'I DREAMED A DREAM' SHOWS A SMILING SUSAN, HEAD HELD IN HER HANDS AND DRESSED IN A SEQUINED SWEATER. EVEN THOUGH IT DOES NOT GO ON SALE UNTIL 23.NOVEMBER, THE ALBUM'S SUCCESS IS ALREADY BEYOND ALL DOUBT. IT HAS ALREADY TOPPED AMAZON'S BESTSELLERS LIST, WITH TENS OF THOUSANDS OF COPIES SOLD AS PRE-ORDERS. THE SHOT WAS TAKEN FROM SUSAN'S PHOTO-SHOOT FOR THE PRESTIGIOUS MAGAZINE HARPER'S BAZAAR. THE 48 YEAR OLD WAS FEATURED IN AN AMAZING SPREAD INSIDE THE ANNUAL AUTUMN/SEPTEMBER ISSUE ENTITLED 'SUSAN BOYLE: UNSUNG HERO'. A SMILING SUSAN SAID: 'IT REALLY MADE ME FEEL LIKE A HOLLYWOOD ACTRESS. HAD MY HAIR DONE UP.' AND THE UN-AIRBRUSHED PHOTO SHOULD CALM FEARS THAT SUSAN'S CHARM WOULD BE DESTROYED WITH A HOLLYWOOD MAKEOVER. BACK IN APRIL, AMANDA HOLDEN DISMISSED THE IDEA OF SUSAN GETTING A NEW LOOK. 'SHE NEEDS TO STAY EXACTLY AS SHE IS BECAUSE THAT'S THE REASON WE LOVE HER. SHE JUST LOOKS LIKE ANYBODY WHO COULD LIVE ON YOUR STREET. THE MINUTE WE TURN HER IN A GLAMORPUSS IS WHEN EVERYTHING IS SPOILED. FOR NOW WE'LL KEEP HER EXACTLY AS SHE IS BECAUSE THAT'S WHY WE'VE FALLEN IN LOVE WITH HER."
