In declarations made to the Daily Mail last night Elaine Paige says:

‘I wasn’t referring to Susan herself; I was referring to the speed of her fame spreading as fast as a worldwide viral marketing campaign.’

‘I am a huge supporter of Susan Boyle and admire what she has achieved.

And then she talks about her own experience when she became famous overnight due to the success of Evita

‘I have always said it’s very hard for someone to be fast-tracked to stardom without any prior experience – I know this as it happened to me when ‘Evita’ opened and I found it extremely difficult in the beginning.

‘Today, of course, it’s much harder with the phenomenon of the internet – Facebook, YouTube etc – it seems it only takes minutes for fame to spread around the world – and that’s why I used the word ‘virus’!

Susan Boyle’s CD has sold a whooping figure of 8 million worldwide, setting records around the world and being one of the best selling female albums in the last years, a moving story of a struggling lady that fought for her dream until it became true that has touched millions around the world, especially the American public, where Susan’s Popularity doesn’t seem to wane.
