Susan Boyle has topped the US album chart - and broken a few records on the way.

I Dreamed A Dream has sold 701,000 copies in the States in its first week.

It makes it the fastest-selling album in America of 2009 so far.

Susan, 48, has also set a new record for the biggest first week sales of a debut LP by any female artist ever.

Only Snoop Dogg has sold more - his debut Doggystyle shifted 803,000 copies in its first week in 1993.

‘I'm incredibly proud of Susan,' says mentor Simon Cowell, 50. ‘This success couldn't have happened to a more deserving person.

‘Susan Boyle quite simply has broken the rules. Her story is like a Hollywood movie, but this time it's a real life and a really talented, nice lady who has won.'

Britain's Got Talent runner-up Susan has also topped the album charts in Australia, Canada, Ireland and New Zealand.
