Hello everyone, welcome to my exclusive blog for the IC Wales Network – in which I’ll be sharing my experiences as I enjoy the excitement and hard work that comes with releasing my first album. Winning Britain’s Got Talent has changed my life. I’ve hardly had time to think, what with recording the album, doing interviews, performing, and travelling.. I’m loving every second, and still can’t believe it’s happening to me – I’m just so grateful for the opportunities that have been given to me and the support I have had. All of it is very hard to believe. It still hasn’t sunk in.
If someone had predicted all of this would happen in my life just a month ago, I would never have believed it. I only ever wanted to sing and to be honest the reason I auditioned for the show was initially because of an ambition I had – to sing at the , Millennium Centre where the auditions took place.

Standing on the stage in front of the judges was one of the most nerve-wracking experiences of my life! I’ve always loved singing but never really knew or would have dared to believe that other people would enjoy my singing too.
I’m writing this from a hotel in London where I have been staying whilst the album has been being recorded – but yesterday I did manage to pop back to the mobile phone shop where I was working just a few weeks ago and see my friends which was lovely – and I even managed to sell a phone while I was there!
I had been at a concert over the weekend where I had the honour to perform with Katherine Jenkins – I was very nervous doing that for two reasons. Firstly because I was performing and secondly because she was wearing a very beautiful and very long dress and I was worried I would step on it as we walked onto the stage! In the end it was fine and I really enjoyed performing there – it was a truly amazing experience.
I’ll write again tomorrow, thanks again for all your support!
PS My album is called ‘One Chance’, will be released on Monday 16th, and is available for pre-order from Amazon now.
