Hopefully she's demolished the stereotype that judges on TXF can't sing.

Thanks so much for posting that clip it's fantastic. What a great singer she is...I never realised she was so good.

She's a class act all right. Wonderful.

That was AMAZING, I never realised she was THAT good before I saw that clip.
She can sing like that, seems lovely but a bit crazy, and she's beautiful and hot. Perfect

Earl Carpenter!<3

Heard it before, it's wonderful. She's wonderful.

However I think they last note/scream is mimed.

I'm pretty sure it is also. In the theatre, that note is always prerecorded.

So it was all live EXCEPT for that last bit? According to 2 of the Phantoms tweets about her, she sang the whole thing live, but fair do's if playback is also done in the West End (I didnt know that).
Still a wonderful performance either way

That last quarter is damn challenging. Great performance from everyone in that clip.

I think she did a pretty good job but not really a patch on the girls that play the part of Christine in the real show, you have to have been there and witnessed it to see what I mean, you can tell Nicole has a pop voice compared to the musical theatre girls?

She was apparently unwell/sick in that clip, I think she did a fantastic job, and was better than the girl I last saw play Christine in London doing that number.

Nicole has previously played the role of Christine and has always been classically trained.

I would say so, yes. A scream would be damaging to the vocal.

Nicole has never played the part of Christine. It was reported that she however worked close to Lloyd Webber on the development of Christine in Love Never Dies and of course, she released a version of the title song Christine sings from LND.

She has never played the role of Christine in theatres though.

I think she sang it live. She's classically trained, and those really high notes seem easy for her tbh...
