Posts Tagged ‘bullying’

Natalie Okri, who last night wowed the judges on Britain’s Got Talent with her rendition of No One by Alicia Keys, has promised to buy her mum a house if she wins the competition.

Currently Natalie and her mum live together with Natalie’s older sister Michelle in a small flat in Deptford, South London. They have lived there since Natalie’s parents split up six years ago.

According to The Sun newspaper, little Natalie has vowed: “Mum has done everything for me. If I get famous it would be wonderful to buy her a house. I wouldn’t like to live in a place like this.”

Natalie would also like to take her mum, 43, and sister Michelle, 20, on holiday to Florida.

Natalie revealed to the Daily Mirror that she has been the victim of bullying at school, being labelled a “cry baby”.

“There’s one girl in my class who makes fun of me because I wear ordinary clothes and she wears fashion stuff.

She’s the gang leader and there’s about six of them who make me cry. But I know I can win the show and show them all what I can do.”

Confident Natalie is hopeful that she can beat Susan Boyle and win the Britain’s Got Talent competition. Well, let’s hope that Demi Moore starts to Twitter about you Natalie – I’m sure that will help.

Meanwhile, Natalie’s mum Tabeth has spoken about Natalie’s father who has not been a part of her life since their separation. She said that she hoped that he watched last night’s show so that he can see what he’s been missing out on. However, she said that she would be “annoyed” if he just got in touch now just because Natalie had been on TV.
