BUS drivers see and speak to hundreds of passengers every day, with most interactions being polite but mundane.<\/p>\n

But one Scot had his day made when singing icon Susan Boyle stepped onto his coach.<\/p>\n


\n<\/p>\n

Celebrities aren't often seen using buses to get them from A to B, so the chance for a bit of stardust is a rare thing for those behind the wheel.<\/p>\n

And Don Mitchell, who works for Lothian Buses, was delighted when the Britain's Got Talent star decided to get on his coach on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Don, who regularly shares videos of his experiences behind the wheel, was driving the 275 service between Broxburn and Bathgate, West Lothian.<\/p>\n

The route takes the bus past SuBo's Blackburn hometown – and the local celeb delighted the driver when she stepped on.<\/p>\n

Don shared a selfie video with Susan on TikTok, using her cover of Hallelujah as the backing music.<\/p>\n

With the camera facing himself, he says: "Hello everyone. I'm on the 275 and look who gets on my bus today – Susan Boyle."<\/p>\n

He then turns the camera slightly to show a masked-up SuBo, who cheerily waves back before heading to her seat.<\/p>\n

Back on camera, a beaming Don says: "Every day is a surprise."<\/p>\n

The clip has racked up over 7,500 likes on TikTok since being shared on Saturday.<\/p>\n

It also attracted hundreds of comments, with many praising the 60-year-old singer's humility.<\/p>\n

After a number of people commented on the fact that SuBo was still getting public transport, despite have an estimated net worth of \u00a322million.<\/p>\n

Don, who described the songstress as "a lovely woman", replied: "She paid her fare, she just likes to have a chat with the customers on the bus and live her life."<\/p>\n

When others commented that she didn't change after raking in big money, the bus driver said: "[She] definitely didn't.<\/p>\n

"She didn't [let fame go to her head]. Got to have respect for that."<\/p>\n

And Don isn't the only person SuBo has surprised this year.<\/p>\n

During the summer, she made a shock appearance during the Tokyo 2020 Olympic opening ceremony.<\/p>\n

SuBo\u2019s version of The Doves\u2019 Wings to Fly was belted out to the billions watching, and listening, across the globe.<\/p>\n

Thousands of paper doves descended from the sky as the ballad was being played in the background.<\/p>\n
