Susan Boyle Shows Off New, Darker Do
It's official: Susan Boyle got a makeover.
The Britain's Got Talent singing sensation -- known for her frumpy look as well as her beautiful voice -- dyed her hair and showed off a sleeker style on Friday.
Check out Us Weekly's biggest celebrity makeovers of the year.
Boyle, 47, had her graying, frizzy hair dyed chestnut brown and styled for reportedly $50 dollars, or 35 pounds, the Assciated Press reports.
The singer, who was seen earlier this week in a new dress and black leather jacket, showed off another chic ensemble -- topped with a Burberry scarf -- outside her home in Blackburn, Scotland.
Although Boyle -- whose performance of "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Miserables has gotten more than 13 million views on YouTube -- said, "Why should I change?" on Larry King Live last week, she has thought about sprucing up her look.

"Maybe I'll consider a makeover later on," she told the London Times on Saturday. "For now I'm happy the way I am — short and plump. I would not go in for Botox or anything like that. I'm content with the way I look. What's wrong with looking like Susan Boyle? What's the matter with that?"
One person who might not approve of the transformation is Simon Cowell's fellow British judge Amanda Holden, who said she wouldn't allow the Scottish to get a makeover.
"She needs to stay exactly as she is because that's the reason we love her," Holden told the U.K. Mirror of Boyle. "The minute we turn her into a glamour-puss is when it's spoiled."

The Britain's Got Talent judges will decide whether Boyle gets through to the next round on May 23.

She actually looks her age now. She looked like she was in her 60's before. Good for her!

Re: Susan Boyle Shows Off New, Darker Do
She looks good, but... umm... how do I say this nicely?
Do you think her chances of winning the competition are less if she pretties herself up too much? She has a lovely voice, don't get me wrong, but she would not have been a YouTube sensation if she weren't so homely. If she's an average looking woman with that (admittedly beautiful) voice, does she have the same impact?
