Alice’s Live Performance On ‘Britain’s Got Talent’
Beauty therapist Alice made a name for herself in 2013 when she blew the judges away on Britain’s Got Talent with a stunning rendition of ‘My Funny Valentine’. She entered the stage with extreme nervousness and was reassured by the judges that she does not need to be scared.
When asked if anyone came along with her. She responded saying, “I didn’t invite anybody because if I was not successful I didn’t want to let anybody down.”
After her beautiful performance Simon Cowell commented, ” This is what I have been waiting for! You actually don’t know how good you are.” He praised her voice for being like “liquid platinum.”
While in tears she explained her fear of rejection, saying, ‘Stage fright is something I’ve battled with. I’m just trying to take each minute as it comes. If someone says no for me it’s like you’re not good enough.
‘That’s where I think most of the nervousness comes from. That people say no. I really want to succeed because I feel like I’m failing myself more than anything. I want to prove to everybody I’m something more than what they maybe thought.’
Prior to that she had been on The Voice where she performed in a blind audition before being rejected by Danny O’Donaghue, Sir Tom Jones, Will.i.am and Jessie J.
