Sydnie Christmas took to the stage of Britain’s Got Talent 2024 as an average Kent girl with a bold and charming attitude like a Catherine Tate Show character. Her pre-performance chat with star judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, and Bruno Tonioli revealed a sparkling personality packed with humour and a dream for a professional singing career on the stage of London’s West End.
Sydnie was 28 when she auditioned on BGT’s 17th season and, to the judges’ surprise, claimed she hadn’t sung her audition song since she was about four. This song choice turned Simon’s face sour. Amanda revealed he had always disliked the song “Tomorrow”, taken from the 1980s musical, Annie, leaving the judges and audience on the edge of their seats. But beneath Sydnie’s bubbly personality blossomed a soulful voice like no other, detailed with emotional crescendos and awe.
