Chloe Hickinbottom is ten years old and has wowed the judges with her rendition of The White Cliffs of Dover. Due to be screened on Saturday night, it would appear that young Chloe has the voice to become a modern day version of forces sweetheart Dame Vera Lynn.

Chloe Hickinbottom, who is from Wolverhampton,  has a mature voice which stuns the judges and steals the show, and is an early favourite to win the £100,000 prize and the opportunity to appear at the Royal Variety Performance.

Asked what she would do with the money, Chloe told Ant and Dec: “I’d spend it on tights and leggings and jeggings [a cross between jeans and leggings].”

Amanda Holden said of Chloe’s performance: “I definitely wasn’t expecting that. I can’t believe that a little ten-year-old girl has such a beautiful voice.”

Piers Morgan adds: “I closed my eyes at one stage. You could have been 40 to 50 years old.”

Louis Walsh, who stood in for a Simon Cowell at the Birmingham auditions because Simon was ill, added “I don’t know where the big voice came from. You were perfectly in tune. I think you were fantastic. You could sell records.”
