"I’m from a really small village in Northern Ireland called Drumfurn, I love it but there really isn’t much opportunity for budding singers like me. One of my biggest fans is my Nan, Patricia –she’s always really supported me and has taught me to dream big - that’s the reason I auditioned for The Voice.

I do live in a bit of a bubble and people are always asking me if I’m naturally blonde which is soooo unfair. I can’t help it if I ask stupid questions & believe everything I’m told…!

I’m a bubbly, giggly, character and my friends are always laughing at me. My biggest fear is actually birds - gosh they scare me! I’m always running away from pigeons - it makes me go bright red. Singing has the opposite effect, it’s the one thing that makes me feel the most relaxed. Actually performing in concert, then winning a BRIT & then chilling with Beyoncé and One Direction would be really relaxing. As long as there are no birds involved"

DO YOU HAVE ANY BAD HABITS?

I always itch my nose which looks bad caught on camera but I swear I’m

not picking it!

WHAT’S THE BEST THING YOU’VE EVER DONE?

Audition for this wonderful show of course (brownie points deserved!)

ANY PHOBIAS?

I’m scared of birds

WHAT’S YOUR MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT?

Running away from pigeons on public streets always embarrasses me and everyone I’m with. Oops
