1. l E x c lu s iv eS hes gorgeous, shes lively, shes
confident, she also has extreme talent its the one and only
JessicaCardiff. It all started a great 18 years ago back in July
1994 and a mother was soon to give birth to herbaby. On the 23rd
July 1994 Tracy Barlow gave birth to Miss Jessica Ann Barlow
weighing in at 8lbs 2oz,but of course no one knew then that this
little baby girl would make British music history.From a very young
age Jessica had always been interested in music; from the tiny age
of 4 she hadalready started singing, dancing and piano lessons, it
was obvious to her family that Jessica had anamazing musical gift
and that she needed to get noticed. Everything was planning out
perfectly for Jess,she was giving her first singing audition at the
age of 7 (which could potentially change her life) however sadly
due to family matter she had to move to London immediately and she
missed her audition. This turned Jessicas life upside down and
refused to sing or play an instrument again, she felt it was a sign
telling her that it just wasnt meant to be, she carried on with her
school life and tried to live a happy enough life without music,
but she couldnt she lived, breathed and ate music it was her
passion, her life and it wasnt the same without it. After gaining
10 GCSEs Jessica knew shed end up in sixth form carrying on with
science, but was she? A new upcoming television programme
broadcasted on BBC1 would be released in November 2010 called Click
to edit Master subtitle Young Musical Talent would this be Jessicas
answer to music again? Of course! but she refused to audition she
didnt want to get her hopes up again and then bestylecrushed down,
she was sick of being left down and was determined to wash that
dream away forever. I bet your wandering what happened next? Well
her mother Tracy and Stepdad David never gave up on their daughters
dream so secretly entered her in for an audition to take place in
Liverpool Halewood, the original venue which she was meant to
audition at six years before. Jessica knew nothing and was told to
walk into the audition room totally un prepared and was asked to
sing, a huge panic filled up inside her but she knew that this
could be an opportunity of a life time, and what do you know? She
one the hole show and has now gone on to sell over 25 million
copies, 3 albums reaching number 1 and also 6 Song releases
reaching number one in astonishing 15 countries and holding the
number title for 8 weeks running.
