Susan Boyle broke down in tears as fans flew to Japan to give her a birthday surprise .
The singing star has been overwhelmed by the extraordinary support she has received from her loyal bunch of fans, and seeing them in Japan for her birthday, was the icing on the cake.
"She couldn't believe her eyes and burst into tears," event organizer, Linda Caillet told Perez Hilton.
"This started out as a small idea. A couple of us asked if anyone wanted to go to see Susan sing in Japan and before long it became a big group of us from all over the world.
Proving fans won’t let get distance get in the way of supporting Su-Bo, Linda added: "One of the group flew over from Australia for a day to buy the tickets because you could only get them in Japan!" Now that’s dedication.
The Susan supporters sported badges with her face on them and red scarves as a tribute.
They showered the just-turned- 49 year old with gifts, although none were quite as elaborate as the one she received from Simon Cowell – a £6000 bracelet she had had her eye on!
Add that to the £4 million royalty instalment Susan received from SyCo, and it’s easy to understand why Ms Boyle was crying tears of joy.
