London, Nov 30 (ANI): Scottish singing sensation Susan Boyle's 'I Dreamed A Dream' has become the fastest selling debut album of all time.
The 48-year-old's album has become number one in the UK after selling more than 410,000 copies.
''I'm incredibly proud of Susan as well as being delighted for her. The success could not have happened to a lovelier person. She did it her way and made a dream come true," the Telegraph quoted Simon Cowell, the pop mogul who masterminded her rise from obscurity, as saying.
''In Britain's Got Talent she opened her mouth and the world fell in love with her, which is why her album has been the fastest selling of any woman making her debut. She's amazing,'' he added.
Martin Talbot, of the Official Charts Company, said: ''Susan Boyle's achievement is quite phenomenal. After all of the excitement surrounding her appearance on Britain's Got Talent, everyone expected her to make a big impact when she released her first music - but to arrive with such a bang is exceptional.''
Elsewhere in the chart, Lady Gaga's 'The Fame Monster' reached number seven.
Last week's number one, Leona Lewis's 'Echo', dropped to number five, while Robbie Williams's 'Reality Killed The Video Star' fell five places to number nine.
The top ten albums are:
