Sydnie Christmas’ victory on Britain’s Got Talent may have been watched by 5.2 million people, but the champion still doesn’t get recognised.
Despite her vocal prowess and unique spin on classics Somewhere Over The Rainbow, and My Way leaving an impression on Simon Cowell and co, people are happy to let her walk on by.
In other words, the 29-year-old singer can quite easily nip to the garage in her PJs for a pint of milk.
‘When people see me on telly or anything like that, I’m Sydnie Christmas but 99% of the time I am just Syd with my trackies on, and my hair in a bun I can go about my life, and I don’t get recognised,’ she explained.
Her situation sounds very similar to a certain Disney series featuring Miley Cyrus – Hannah Montana. When we pointed out the parallels, Sydnie let out a laugh, before adding she is ‘quite happy’ with the setup as she can still keep a sense of normality.
