Jodie Steele, take one.
Where am I looking? There? There. Hi... Oh, there.
I have been lucky enough to perform in quite a few musicals.
It's been something that I've always, always wanted to do
for as long as I can remember.
I sing when I'm down, I sing when I'm happy,
in the car - always in the car.
It's like a full-on concert down the M25, like...
It's a tight competition and I like the way...
It's close, actually. ..you just can't call it.
I'm really nervous about going up in front of 100 singers.
Obviously there's loads of talented people here
and they might not like me, but I really hope that they do.
You all right, Jodie? Yeah. Make a start coming out. Come on, then.
I can't even really fathom having £50,000.
It would be incredible. It would change my life.
Fingers crossed.
Let's see if our final act can get themselves into that top three.
She's still nervous.
Hiya. I'm Jodie, I'm from Basingstoke,
and I hope you enjoy my take on this absolute tune.
So I'm not getting up unless it's absolutely... Amazing, yeah.
Kid's TV presenter.
Yeah.
She's got a lot of competition. Mm.
Take a breath. Relax.
GUITAR PLAYS SOFTLY
# Oh, I want to dance with somebody
# With somebody who loves me... I didn't expect that.
Ooh.
# Clock strikes upon the hour
# And the sun begins to fade
# Still enough time to figure out
# How to chase my blues away
# I've done all right up till now
# It's the light of day...
Oh, they are flying up. This is going to be close.
# That shows me how
# But when the night falls
# My loneliness calls
# Oh, I wanna dance with somebody
# Oh, yeah
# I wanna feel the heat with somebody... #
A big score here could send her into the final
and Norbert into the sing-off.
# With somebody who loves me
# Oh, I want to dance with somebody
# I want to feel the heat with somebody
# I want to dance with somebody
# With somebody who lo-oves me-e! #
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
Yes, girl!
Oh, my God, she's amazing!
# Oh, I want to dance with somebody... #
Wow!
# I want to feel the heat with somebody. #
That is awesome!
Wow! Jodie, you've gone straight to the final.
Thank you so, so much. Thank you.
Wow. Unbelievable stuff.
Shena, you've actually played Whitney Houston before,
what did you think?
Jodie, thank you so much for bringing Whitney to us today.
Thank you. Oh, my goodness.
I'm speechless. When she started singing, her voice was so beautiful,
and she did her own style on it and it was just unique and it was incredible.
Thank you. Well done.
If my maths are correct, 97% of you liked it,
but not everyone did. Paulus.
BOOING Come on, Paulus.
You didn't stand up for that and most of the 100 did.
Why did you not stand up?
No, I didn't stand up. Not that it wasn't good, Jodie,
it was good, but for me,
there's too many trills and licks and flicks.
It didn't work for me.
Did not work for Paulus,
not much does so don't worry about that.
Geri!
Jodie. Hello. Hello. Ah!
I think the word is effortless,
and also it was cute and instantly likeable.
97 speaks for itself. Wow. Well done. Thank you so much.
Thank you. Thank you, Geri.
