Maia Gough arrived on Britain’s Got Talent looking like an ordinary 12-year-old with a very big dream.
Her idol was Whitney Houston.
Her song choice?
“I Have Nothing.”
Then Maia began singing.
The shy schoolgirl suddenly transformed into a confident performer with a remarkably mature voice.
The judges watched as she tackled the difficult song and continued building toward its biggest notes.
By the end, the theater was on its feet.
Four YES votes followed, sending Maia through and turning her ambitious song choice into an audition to remember.
She walked onto the stage as a young Whitney Houston fan.
She walked off having made the spotlight entirely her own.
