She'd fit right in with us blokes across the pond....
There are probably more than a few awards she'd be deserving of over here too.

Thanks for posting Donny.

Charlie,

Christmas Eve, a year ago, she was badly shaken in a fender bender so we just chatted until wee hours. I'm her cyber dad.

Her irises failed to develop in the womb causing her to be born blind. At age 11, she brought the house down at Royal Albert Hall in London singing Buddy Holly's "Raining In My Heart". If you want your heart ripped out, just listen to her sing "What Colour Is The Wind?"

Warning: It's a 2 hankie song!

She has been nominated 4 times but someone pointed out that there has NEVER been a blind female winner. Sad.

Actually, she visited Nashville last Summer but I fear that she's poorly managed. I asked Isla Grant to consider taking her on tour. We'll see what develops.
