Alexandra Burke
Alexandra Burke’s illustrious career has risen to astronomical heights in the years since she triumphed in X Factor 2008, taking the crown after performing a monumental duet with Beyonce. Her record-breaking debut single ‘Hallelujah’ took the music industry by storm, setting a European record for the highest single sales in a 24-hour period after selling over 100,000 copies in just one day. Reaching No. 1 on the UK Christmas Chart, the song became 2008’s top-selling record, shifting over 1 million copies in the UK alone by 2009: a second record for Alexandra and a historic moment for British female artists.
Alexandra issued her debut album, Overcome, in 2009, reaching No 1 in the UK Album Charts and producing an unbelievable four No 1 Singles. Hailed by critics as one of the year’s best, Overcome was nominated for three Brit Awards, leaving no doubt that Alexandra was to become one of Britain’s most successful solo artists. The two records that followed further established her reputation as an phenomenal musical talent with a voice like no other: her latest album, 2018’s The Truth Is, featured a heartrending duet with Ronan Keating, charting highly on both the UK and Scottish Albums Charts.
Aside from her incredible career as a recording artist, Alexandra has established a strong presence in musical theatre, becoming one of the West End’s most sought-after talents. After being invited to take on the leading role in hit musical ‘The Bodyguard’, she embarked on a two-year regional tour that was well received by critics and fans alike. Building on that acclaim, Alexandra accepted the leading part in the hugely popular show ‘Sister Act’, setting off on a 12-month tour that wowed audiences across the UK. Since then, Alexandra has appeared in epic romance ‘Chess’ at The London Coliseum, and portrayed Roxie Hart in The Phoenix Theatre’s production of ‘Chicago’. A firm favourite across both stage and screen, 2017 saw Alexandra compete in BBC One’s wildly popular reality series Strictly Come Dancing, narrowly missing out on the top spot after a stunning performance in the final episode.
As an official ambassador for Breast Cancer Care, WellChild, Diabetes UK, and The Melissa Bell Foundation. Alexandra continues to devote time to humanitarian causes that are close to her heart: in 2018, she hosted The Fall Ball, an event aimed at raising funds for The UK Stroke Association.
