SUSAN Boyle has said she is “very excited” ahead of her upcoming tour, which will include a return to the stage where her journey to fame began.
The singer will hit the road for her Ten tour in March, playing in eight cities starting in Edinburgh on March 1.
The third stop will be the SEC Armadillo in Glasgow, where she stunned Britain’s Got Talent judges Simon Cowell, Piers Morgan and Amanda Holden in 2009 with her audition in which she sang I Dreamed A Dream from Les Miserables.
At a photo call on the stage in Glasgow on Tuesday, she said she was particularly looking forward to her show in the city.
She said: “I’m very excited – and very excited to be back where it all happened 10 years ago. I’m looking forward to performing in Glasgow because Glasgow audiences are very warm and friendly, so is everybody, but particularly here because it’s got some memories for me.
“This is where it all began, deja vu, full circle if you like,” she added.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
