Natalie Okri

the 10-year old Natalie Okri, who is a big Byoncé fan, is the first person  I want to talk about who has an amzing talent. Her voice made people speechless when she auditioned for the show `Britain`s Got Talent`. She is confident and sings on stage like a professional singer. Her goal is to show other people what she can do and she participated in the show because she wanted to buy a new house for her mom and her sister if she wins. I think she is an adorable girl. Natalie said in an interview that other kids in school would bully her because of her talent and because she can`t afford to wear the newest fashion. I think she is a special girl who has a talent that not many girls in her age have and it doesn`t matter what they think about her because she showed her talent to the world and people just love her.

    
 I found this article from MailOnline about Natalie Okri


Baby Beyonce who wowed Britain's Got Talent judges being bullied for her stunning voice


IN pigtails and pinafore she looks like a typical ten-year-old schoolgirl.
But Natalie Okri transforms into a rather grown-up soul diva - the moment she opens her mouth to sing.
Her impressive performance on Britain’s Got Talent won over the judges and led to a standing ovation from the audience.
But the response from her classmates has been anything but complimentary.
Natalie Okri has revealed she has been bullied because of her performance on Britain's Got Talent
The tiny singer, who idolises the singer Beyonce, has told how envious classmates have taunted her because of her  extraordinary musical ability.
    ‘There is one girl in my class who makes fun of me because I wear ordinary clothes and she wears fashion stuff,' said Natalie, who lives with her mother and sister, 20, in a flat in South London.
    ‘She is the gang leader and there are about six of them who make me cry. But I know I can win and show them all what I can do.’
    Natalie impressed Simon Cowell and his fellow judges with her rendition of Alicia Keys' No One. 
    She told the judging panel she had been singing since the age of four.
    'I sing at home and I sometimes even sing when I am having my dinner.
     I want to be a singer and a diva and I definitely want to be like Beyonce,' she said.
    Natalie quickly won over the audience with her remarkably powerful voice, while even the normally cynical Cowell dcelared: ‘I think you are totally and utterly adorable.’
    Amanda Holden described the performance: ‘Just knockout brilliant,’ while Piers Morgan enthused: 'You are a very very little girl with a very very big voice, I loved it.'
    Natalie, who is estranged from her father, said she wanted to win the competition and £100,000 prize money to buy a new house for her mother and sister.
