Susan Boyle throws party to thank friends and neighbours

Susan Boyle has thrown a party to thank friends, family and neighbours who have supported her in her rise to fame.

The 50-year-old has gone through a truly meteoric rise to fame since appearing on Britain's Got Talent in 2009.

And she treated those close to her with a special party in her home town of Blackburn, West Lothian.

The Sun reports she even dusted off her famous pipes and sang a few songs with a backing band. Speaking about the party, she told the newspaper:

"It was to say thank you and show my appreciation for all their support over the last few years. We had a great time and it was lovely to be with the people who have helped me along this incredible journey."

As previously reported, Boyle gave an in-depth interview to the Daily Mail late last year, dispelling gossip that she had never been kissed.
