Now where might a lovely young woman from the humblest of upbringings in the Welsh Valleys, from the tiny village of Neath, fit into all this? Katherine Jenkins may yet become Britain’s one competitor to these women’s thrones. Having broken records, picked up plaudits, been littered with awards, sold multi-platinum scales of recordings and played at every single one of the highest profile sporting tournaments in the British calendar, Ms Jenkins has completed her work in the classical/crossover field. Alighting upon a sound for her seventh album in the sun-kissed Hollywood Hills, under the expert tutelage of world class star-maker and producer David Foster and with the unprecedented backing and commitment of new label Warner Brothers, Katherine feels like she is about to go supernova. At 29 years of age she feels embedded in her home culture enough to take a risk on cutting loose for the international stage. Suddenly Britain might just have readied a diva fit for the world stage, in every respect.
