Belinda Davids is a 43-year-old top-class performer. Belinda is a single mother who juggles between her illustrious career and raising two boys. She comes from Port Elizabeth in the Eastern Cape and her powerful voice has made her an internationally acclaimed award-winning vocalist.

She tells GLAMOUR ‘she isn’t yet done.’

At heart, I am a woman from a small town with a big dream who started at a very young age-fighting and struggling for long to get where I am today. I am still not done yet, as I hope to achieve some bigger dreams that I have set for myself.”

The queen from the ‘windy city’ began her music career at a tender age and has never looked back since. She says her endless love for iconic Whitney Houston drove her towards her childhood dream.

“I was able to sing from a very young age, maybe at around 6 years old. My professional career started at the age of 14. I was mostly inspired by Whitney Houston. She was the voice that connected me to my dream. And when I did it, I made people happy by singing her music. Doing this, and from receiving great feedback, when I would sing on stage, encouraged me to keep going,” she said.

The Port Elizabeth born star says she is ready to take her music career to "the next level." 

Belinda received a standing ovation from all judges of Britain’s Got Talent - a prestigious talent search show that is among the most favourites across the world. The BGT is a huge platform, with more than 11 million viewers.

“It’s time to take my career to the next level. I think it’s time to build my own show with my own original music,” said the singer.

In a delightful rendition of her fave, the iconic Whitney Houston’s One Moment in Time, Belinda left fans and judges salivating over her. 

Belinda said when she went on stage at the BGT her aim was to impress Simon Cowell- a powerhouse in the music industry.

Simon launched the careers of One Direction, Little Mix, Olly Murs, and Fifth Harmony.

The talented PE vocalist says she would likely have to leave her current role with the The Greatest Love of All: A tribute to Whitney Houston show if she succeeds in her pursuit of clinching the BGT crown.

“It might be time to move away from it. I’m excited for the next part of my journey,” she said.
