A nervous girl named Alice Fredenham sang My Funny Valentine for her audition in Season 7 of Britain’s Got Talent. Her stellar performance even earned her a standing ovation from Simon Cowell!
In season 7 of Brittain’s Got Talent, a 28-year-old Alice Fredenham steps onto the stage for the first time. And it is clear to see that she is very nervous.
“How are you?” one of the judges asks. “Scared,” she says sheepishly.
Alice then goes on to talk about how she didn’t even tell anyone that she was going to audition for Britain’s Got Talent.
“I didn’t tell anyone cause I just thought I’d rather just go it alone,” she shared. “And then if I’m not successful, I don’t have to admit that to anyone.”
“Stage fright is something I’ve battled with. I’m just trying to take each minute as it comes,” Alice explained in an interview before her audition. “I want to prove to everybody I’m here for something, something more than what they maybe thought.”
Nervous Singer Wows With Soulful Audition
As soon as Alice Fredenham starts singing My Funny Valentine, her beautiful and mesmerizing voice captivates the whole room.
Simon is especially blown away by Alice’s performance!
“This is what I have been waiting for. Your voice is like liquid gold. You have such an authentically beautiful voice,” he tells her. “You could sing the phone book! I absolutely love you and I love your voice. And I also love the fact that you actually don’t even know how good you are.”
When asked by one of the judges why she was crying, Alice responds, “I just don’t think I ever expected this kind of response, and it’s like my dream. And now it’s just happened.”
Alice made it all the way to the BGT semifinals, but her journey on the show ended there. But many fans still remember the stunning Alice Fredenham My Funny Valentine audition to this day!
