On April 11, 2009, Susan Boyle mesmerized the world with her performance in the reality TV programme, Britain’s Got Talent.
She was just plain looking. It seemed there was nothing special about her.
But when he took on stage to sing “I Dreamed a Dream” from Les Misérables, the audience and judges were in awe with her powerful voice as she got standing ovations during and after her performance.
Within days, videos of that performance became viral as it spread all over the Internet giving Boyle instant worldwide recognition.
Last April 7, 2010, at Taiwan’s karaoke TV show Super Star Avenue, a male short, fat contestant appeared on stage wearing bowl-cut hairstyle and a red bow tie.
Just as you thought he was going to sing “She Bangs” ala-Wiliam Hung (of American Idol fame, remember him?), he belted out the Dolly Parton classic, “I Will Always Love You” perfectly that you would think it was Whitney Houston singing on stage.
Well again, looks can be deceiving.
Watch out below Lin Yu Chun’s video singing “I Will Always Love You” at Taiwan’s karaoke TV show Super Star Avenue:
Lin Yu Chun, The Next Susan Boyle? The Taiwanese Whitney Houston? Call it what you want except that he’s no William Hung.

sabi nga nila don’t judge the book by its cover, pero plus factor talaga yung may mga looks lalo na sa entertainment business.
