Let's just say that Miss Boyle, the endearingly scatty singing sensation who was discovered on Britain's Got Talent 18 months ago, has not exactly let fame go to her head.
Take, for example, the £300,000 'dream home' she has bought with some of the £10 million she's already raked in.
She may have kitted out the newly-built detached house in her hometown of Blackburn, West Lothian, 'all posh', as she puts it, with wall-to-wall Ikea fittings, a smart docking station for her iPod and a grand piano in her living room.
But her new quarters have remained largely uninhabited by the 49-year-old spinster. Instead, SuBo - as she is known to her millions of fans around the world - is to be found most evenings less than a mile away in the dingy terraced council house where she has lived all her life.
While smart enough, her new home would be far more fitting for, say, a successful young executive couple than the most successful recording artist in the world currently.
Even so, the fragile Susan admits she is yet to feel truly comfortable there. Family friends say she has panic attacks when left alone at the new house at night and worries that her beloved cat Pebbles has not settled in.
Looks like fame and fortune doesn't help to cure panic attacks
