Britain’s Got Talent has crowned its 2024 winner, with Sydnie Christmas emerging victorious after an incredible performance of “Somewhere Over The Rainbow.”
On June 2, Britain’s Got Talent crowned its winner after weeks of impressive performances from a wide range of talents. Among the 11 acts competing in the competition’s final, Sydnie gained the most public votes with her mesmerizing rendition of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” This earned her the prize of £250,000 and a spot at the Royal Variety Performance, a prestigious charity event held at the Royal Albert Hall in London and attended by members of the Royal Family.
Who is Sydnie Christmas?
Sydnie Christmas, hailing from England, worked at a gym’s front desk before her breakthrough on BGT. She’s a seasoned professional singer, having graced theater stages and cruise ships in her career. Prior to her BGT stint, she was featured on an episode of the London-based reality show Stage School, as reported by The Sun.
Her journey on the competition began back in April when she wowed the audience and judges with her rendition of “Tomorrow” from Annie. The 2024 judges panel, which included Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, and Bruno Tonioli, were so impressed with her audition that she received a standing ovation from all four judges. Amanda Holden was especially impressed and pressed the Golden Buzzer, sending Sydnie straight to the semi-finals.
