While Susan Boyle's original charm was the cheeky fearless quality of her singing that defied the rudeness of the judges and audience on Britain's Got Talent,  Boyle cinched her latest fearless accolades by coming back strong when a lot more was at stake, commented Jacqueline Wales, author of The Fearless Factor: Living Your Best Life Now (www.thefearlessfactor.com).

In recognition of the latest triumph, Wales announced that she was naming Susan Boyle the "Fearless Lady of the Month" on her Fearless Factor website.

As Wales explained," When I watched Susan Boyle sing, I must say I cringed when I heard the first notes out of her mouth. Like many, I thought 'oh, oh' and felt she was doomed. But she redeemed herself well, and carried on to produce a wonderful, if not magnificent version of Memories from the musical Cats."

Wales further concluded that Susan Boyle had been drowning in adoration since her first performance, and "without even knowing her, I would say she was probably all in knots this time around because she didn't want to let anyone down. In the end, she didn't. She clapped her hand on her diaphragm and held on for dear life."

Wales noted that all three judges stood up and applauded Susan's bravery and her fearlessness at the end of her performance, adding that Simon Cowell even apologized for his rude behavior on her first appearance. In the end, Wales said that Susan Boyle is amazing because she was willing to take the risk of exposing herself to the world. "Not many people will step over that threshold. For that reason she gets my FEARLESS LADY OF THE MONTH AWARD."
