JACKIE EVANCHO

Jackie is completely different to Charlotte Church--she is a very sweet child at the moment, just 10 years old.

How she will be in 10 years time-who knows--hope she does not follow Charlotte's footsteps !!

That's exactly what I mean Marian, however I have to say I like Charlotte better since she went pop and I bought her last two cd's - still think she's a little b****r though!

I only watch this programme on occasions and was watching Jackie Evancho reach the semi-final yesterday on ITV 2.
She is certainly a sweet little girl, speaks very sensibly, has an amazing voice and no sign of precociousness.
On the other hand, we've seen what happens to most of these talented children, mainly through their pushy parents. although the worst ones are those parents who's children haven't got talent but can't see it.

I know this is going off topic but I could not stand Lena Zavaroni as a child but when she grew into a young woman and had her tv show I thought she had progressed into a real star in the making, so sad she died way too young.
