Unpolished diamonds

Paul Potts, the winner of Britain's got Talent, might have been easy to overlook with his seemingly nervous appearance. It must be sheer guts that has made him decide to stand in front of millions of viewers to perform what he thought he's good at. Except that it wasn't good. It was great.

See how he transformed the uninterested crowd into a wave of cheers.

Not everyone will spakle like a diamond. But then again, not everyone has the guts to try.
