[...] Natalie Okri appeared mid-show and hopes were high for the pretty young ten year old. Whilst I loved the routine it wasn’t a patch on her first audition performance. The girl was cute and talented all by herself. She didn’t need a loud backing track drowning her out, in the end the effect was that it was hard to tell what was Natalie and what was the background music and singing. [...]
natalie was fantastic. i hope she doesnt get too upset by being denied the chance of being in the final. she has her whole life ahead of her and she will go far… i think its a case of watch this space
I think the little girl was fantastic. It’s absolutely amazing for a girl of her age to come up with such a wonderful performance. Anyway, not being in the final is not the end of the road for her. The journey has just started. So little Natalie, don’t be too upset loosing out in the final. You have a great talent which will lead you too far into the future. I admire you just as I admire little Connie Talbot. Well done girl!
