Do you remember Alice Fredenham? She was a part of “Britain’s Got Talent” back in 2013 — she was the 28-year-old beautician who came on stage and simply smashed her performance of “My Funny Valentine.” Celebrity host Simon Cowell was so impressed with her that he tagged her voice as “liquid gold” and even went on to say that the “yes” for her is the easiest that he’s given out, on the show. Now, that’s incredible!
But it doesn’t end there. Alice went on to give numerous powerhouse performances on her stint on the show. She was so talented and loved by the audience that she made her way to the semi-finals with ease.
The stage act that we bring to you today, in the video below, is the one she put together for this very semi-final show, on “Britain’s Got Talent.”
Alice graces the stage in a beautiful red dress; she gives off a very old-Hollywood, 30s vibe, and it’s stunning. The song she chose to sing this time around was “Cry Me A River.” Her voice did complete justice to this tune, and the unique touch she adds to each of her performances is something that not many singers can do.
After the performance was through, Simon decided to change his statement from the first time Alice had taken center stage. For him, her voice isn’t liquid gold anymore, it’s “liquid platinum.” What an amazing compliment!
For those who don’t know, Alice had auditioned for “The Voice UK” back in 2010. Although she wasn’t selected to be a part of the competition, the world knew then and there that she had it in her to be a star. But, as things like this situation always do, the fact that she didn’t get selected had discouraged her. She felt like she wasn’t good enough and figured that her passion wasn’t enough to pursue her career.
We’re glad she changed her mind when she did! She does admit though that when she came for her auditions for “Britain’s Got Talent,” no one in her family and friends circle knew she was there. Perhaps she was afraid of not making it to the next round, and didn’t want people to question her? But, she had nothing to worry about! With a voice like her’s, there was no way Simon and the gang would have passed on the opportunity to let her go!
