Singer Susan Boyle Applies for Job With Bookmaker Ladbrokes

Say what? 

Could one of the best voices in music today, Susan Boyle, have fallen on hard times?

People Magazine has revealed that Ms. Boyle, 52, recently applied for a part time gig at British bookmaker Ladbrokes.

The 16-hour-a-week job at the Blackburn, Scotland shop pays $10 an hour.

Jessica Bridge of Ladbrokes says, "We were as shocked as Simon, Amanda and Piers when Susan asked about the part-time vacancy. She once applied for a job with us before hitting the big time, so it's good to see she's still dreaming the dream of working for Ladbrokes."

Regarding the hard times, that hardly seems to be the case as Boyle is believed to be raking in the cash. 

Friends and associates speculate that the singer simply wants to be around people.
