Andy Samberg has said that he "bawled" after hearing Susan Boyle sing.

In an interview with E!, the comedian recalled the moment he watched the Britain's Got Talent star singing 'I Dreamed a Dream' for the first time.

"I came home pretty intoxicated once and discovered the 'I Dreamed a Dream' clip and watched it like seven times in a row and just bawled," the Saturday Night Live star said.

He added: "I don't generally just cry when I'm drunk; I get drunk and have fun. But it was a joyful cry. It wasn't like upset. For some reason, the combination of her voice and that song and the super over the top editing of that show really, really struck a chord with me."

Samberg will host the MTV Movie Awards this Sunday.
