Susan Boyle has made her stateside TV singing debut, with a guest appearance on the final of America's Got Talent.

The dowdy Scottish singing sensation was the runner-up in the UK version of the show, but Boyle surprised American viewers, with her powerful rendition of the Rolling Stones classic, Wild Horses.



The performance marks something of a comeback for Boyle who was rushed to a clinic when she collapsed after losing the final of Britain's Got Talent to hip-hop dance act Diversity.

However, it was Colombian superstar Shakira who stole the show with a jaw-dropping performance of her new song which wowed both the audience and the judges.

The Colombian-Lebanese performer wore a skin-tight black number with strategic cut-outs during her animalistic rendition of She Wolf .



She Wolf is the first single off the album of the same name, which will be released on October 13.
