Teenage Sensation Sarah Ikumu Recalls ‘Britain Got Talent’ Experience

Sarah Ikumu is a 17-year-old singing sensation who made Kenya proud on the popular UK television talent show, ‘Britain’s Got Talent’.

Ikumu, who was only 15 at the time, received the “Golden Buzzer” when she auditioned for the talent show.

Recalling her experience during the show, Sarah Ikumu says she was hesitant to go for the auditions at first.

“My mum and I did not like me go for the auditions because for me, I have never liked competitions, and so it took me some time before I could join, but I did finally,” Sarah said.

On how it was like performing in front of well-known harsh judge Simon Cowell, Sarah said: “First there was tension, especially because of well-known ‘harsh’ judge Simon Cowell. I knew he was tough.”

She added that she was not thinking about the crowd but mainly about her voice and if it was going to stay all through her performance.
