If you haven’t seen the video of Susan Boyle’s rousing success on Britain’s Got Talent, then you need to watch this clip. But what accounts for her success?
Certainly her wonderful voice is most important. But I also think that her goofy chatter with the judges before her performance helped as well. To be sure, no one thought she was capable of being the next Elaine Page. But she seemed so down to earth and authentic as she chatted away and gyrated her hips. Even as people were making fun of her, they  were also bonding with her.  They could tell that she was a real person. Everyone could relate to her.
The point is that your best style is your own authentic style. Be yourself and people will connect with you.
