Could Lin Yu Chin Be the Next Susan Boyle?

Taiwan's Super Star Avenue continues to prove that looks can be deceiving

Remember when Susan Boyle busted into "I Dreamed a Dream" on Britain's Got Talent and shocked the world?

That was so five minutes ago!

Meet Lin Yu Chin, a contestant on Taiwan's Super Star Avenue, the nation's equivalent to American Idol. What he lacks in visual appeal—assuming a harsh bowl haircut and red bowtie aren't your thing—he makes up for in soul.

Boy's rendition of Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You" kills!

Needless to say, the rising YouTube star is still in the running for the $1 million prize.
