Susan Boyle Has A Message For Timothée Chalamet After His Unexpected Shout-Out
Susan Boyle has spoken out after Timothée Chalamet unexpectedly sang her praises during a recent interview.
On Wednesday evening, the former Britain’s Got Talent star shared her joy after Timothée named her as one of the Brits he’d most like to send a “Marty Supreme jacket” to, which he’s previously reserved for “greats” in their field.
“She dreamt big,” the two-time Oscar nominee enthused during an interview with BBC News. “She dreamt bigger than all of us.
“Who wasn’t moved by that [story]? I remember that like it was yesterday.”
Posting on Instagram, Susan wrote: “This has been so incredibly touching to read. I’m very flattered, [Timothée]. Those early days were quite something, and to know that moment meant something to you all these years on truly humbles me.
“We all start somewhere, with a dream and a bit of hope, don’t we? We should all dream big! I wish you every success as you continue to dream your own dream. Thank you for your kindness and for remembering that moment so fondly.”
She signed off her message: “With love, Susan.”

Back in 2009, Susan became an international phenomenon when her Britain’s Got Talent audition went hugely viral on YouTube, racking up 2.5 million views in just the first three days after it was uploaded, eventually becoming the site’s most-watched video of that year.
Susan didn’t win BGT, finishing in second place behind dance troupe Diversity, but she was quickly signed to Simon Cowell’s record label after the live final, and her debut album I Dreamed A Dream remains one of the biggest-selling of the 21st century, earning her the first of two Grammy nominations.
The Wild Horses singer now has seven studio albums under her belt, and has been teasing that an eighth is in the works for 2026.
