Bloody hell! Talk about fantastic! If she's this good now, what the hell's she going to be like when she's in her twenties? This lass is going to take some serious beating. The amount of confidence she's got is unbelievable! If she gets her career off to a start, she's going to be VERY wealthy. She has the talent of a singer in their twenties. I was gobsmacked when watching her.

She was great, but I wouldn't like her to get to the final at the expense of Francine & James.

There's no denying she has an incredible voice for her age but there's a fine line between confidence and cockiness and she definitely crosses it. Not keen.

I thought that she was amazing for a 15-year-old. And then, I found out she was actually 11!

She sang Halo really well but I think how cocky she is will put people off her. She's 11 and already acts like some big diva, not nice. Her parents need to tell her to knock it down a notch

like many singers she is good when it comes to belting out the big notes but when it comes to singing the lower notes that require vocal control her voice crumbles, i could not care less how old she is to be honest, i judge every contestant on the quality of the performance not how old they are...

I agree it's really annoying how people in this country mistake confidence as arrogance .

You see we just wouldn't get this praise if it was a white girl with the same ability.

Because she was over confident that had turned into cocky. She said it herself, when she's onstage she's a diva! She's 11 and shouldn't be acting like a Diva, plenty of teenage years ahead for that

Being confident is good, being cocky is not, especially in someone so young. Her whole attitude is of someone who is already a huge pop star and yet nobody had even heard of her before BGT. It's very off-putting.

Record career? Last thing she needs is for her childhood to be taken away from her.

I thought she was pretty good, even for me being a kid talent show act hater. If she knocks Francine out then all the better.

The phrase 'Cutting one's coat to suit one's cloth' springs to mind with this girl

What?
If she's good, she's good - nothing to do with race or the colour of her skin

I need to watch it again, the first minute or so, I thought she hit 3 or 4 really dreadful notes - maybe that was her style.

Once it picked up in the second half she was terrific.

Not in the best 5 acts of the night though for me.
