Natalie Okri (HQ) Semi-final BGT 2009

[@TheresaDeVries]

The first audition was Amazing, could see her natural range and feel of the music. This one wasn't the best, but no one pick's the right song's every time.

[@veronicavalentine1813]

Theresa DeVries I agree. It was cute but her first audition flowed through my soul it was that beautiful

[@baders087]

The producers chose it

[@insel8131]

@@veronicavalentine1813 ...omg i had tears in my eyes back then...i didnt think that song was right and it is so obvious thats she did not pick that song...

[@ellimahermaynard2303]

Why do u have to say it wasn’t the best why did u have to say that u can keep it to yourself

[@MsJubjubbird]

I hear in these shows the producers sometimes know who they want in the final and so they will influence the auditions and semi finals- like by picking a song that will be difficult to win with (and in this case, give them a terrible karaoke quality backing track). They probably didn't want too many kid singers in the final so there was some balance between adult singers, dancers etc. so when they did their first few rounds before the semi finals they would have actually compared all the kid singer contestants with each other and decided who they wanted to go through

[@willypops]

WHAT A TALENT! How can she have been voted off? She is indeed a little star in the making. I think she's absolutely FANTASTIC. AWESOME!!!!!

[@harrietsrhapsody]

It wasn’t the best song for her, but she’s so talented. And so adorable as well.

[@Justanotherhuman2]

I absolutely agree with Simon. She has an incredibly big voice. Whoever chose that song for her messed up. It didn't allow her to showcase her big voice and incredible vocal range!! Still the cutest and most confident 10 year old on stage

[@KemiAdorin]

HOW does she go from Alicia Keys to this CRAP lol. i know she's 10 but.... someone could've told her something

[@TigersEmpire]

Kemi Adorin' lol she didn’t chose the song idiot

[@meggriffin94]

The producers ruined it for her

[@modernmidwestfemme]

I enjoy her. She is so adorable! i can't wait for her to grow up and start putting out songs. I think she'll be absolutely fantastic!

[@bernardkrisifoe9466]

People always talk about (ey oh ey oh ey oh) All the things they're all about (ey oh ey oh ey oh) Write it on a piece of paper, Got a feeling I'll see you later. There's something bout this, Lets keep it moving, And if its good lets just get something cooking. Cause I really wanna rock with you, I'm feeling some connection to the things you do. (you do, you do). [Chorus:] I don't know what it is, That makes me feel like this, I don't know who you are, But you must be some kind of superstar, Cause you got all eyes on you no matter where you are, (you just make me wanna dance) Baby take a look around (ey oh ey oh ey oh) Everybody's getting down (ey oh ey oh ey oh) Deal with all the problems later, Bad boys on their best behaviour. There's something bout you, Lets keep it moving, And if it's good lets just get something cooking, Cause I really wanna rock with you, I'm feeling some connection to the things you do, (you do, you do). I don't know what it is, That makes me feel like this, I don't know who you are, But you must be some kind of superstar, Cause you got all eyes on you no matter where you are, (you just make me wanna dance). I like the way your movin' (ey oh ey oh ey oh) I just get into the groove and then (you just make me wanna play), If you just put pen to paper (ey oh ey oh ey oh) Got that feeling I'll see you later. Make your move, can we get a little closer, You rock it just like you're supposed to, Hey boy I ain't got nothing more to say, Cause you just make me wanna play, I don't know what it is, That makes me feel like this, I don't know, Gotta be, gotta be a superstar, All eyes on you.

[@thelouisfanclub]

I'm waiting to hear more from her when she grows up and her voice gets more powerful

[@SARAH_1LEE]

Guys the producers are the one who chose the song for her and made her dance like this and gave her the outfit it’s like u can’t say anything u don’t wanna do,! It’s like a signature u sign and u not allowed to disagree

[@t0fulov3]

The music totally drowned her beautiful voice ! T__T"

[@heidiandashleighsrandomstu8178]

Omg 10 years ago

[@insel8131]

...yeah that wasnt right and i dont think she would have picked that song either!!!

[@lilredd1977]

[@kailasoccer]

[@joannatsang4662]

Lmao in a newspaper, she said she didn't want to sing that, but welcome to the entertainment industry. 💓

[@stingstungme]

@DHOWARD12001 The song is "Superstar". Christine Milton did it first then Jamelia covered it. Both versions are on youtube.

[@gidbry]

[@wheelie642]

Natalie introduced me to this song. I enjoy the original by Christine Milton, and also the reproduction by Jamelia. Thank you Natalie,

[@garet300]

Truly Great.Love HER.gRET VOICE.

[@Blueknightex]

I agree with Simon, the song that she sang had a lot of dancing in it. During her performance she was so focused on her dancing that she couldn't concentrate on her singing. You can tell by the way her eyes were just sitting in one direction in the video, just look at it. The performance was a fab. on the other hand and she looked liked a star!

[@willy868]

she is good and she can keep growing and be bigger than any other singer. Please do not stop. I think the judges made the right decision by choosing diversity over her Do not give up , you are so young and talented, always next year is waiting for you

[@gabrielaarent8972]
