Susan Boyle tipped to sing next James Bond tune

Britain's Got Talent runner-up Susan Boyle could perform the next James Bond theme song, according to reports.

A number of official James Bond fan clubs have launched internet campaigns to get the Scottish star on the soundtrack of the film which is due out in 2011.

Monty Norman, who wrote the original Bond theme music, said Ms Boyle is his top choice for the 23rd film.

He added that movie bosses were likely to be considering the former karaoke singer from Blackburn, West Lothian.

Mr Norman said: "She's got the right kind of sweeping voice. I think Susan Boyle is great."

If selected, the 48-year-old will follow legends including Sir Paul McCartney, Tom Jones and Dame Shirley Bassey who have previously preformed theme tunes for the series of films, including Live and Let Die, Thunderball and Goldfinger.

The last James Bond film, Quantum of Solace, was released in 2008 and starred Daniel Craig as the iconic MI6 agent. ~LoveFilm.com
