“I just one day want to give it back to them, what they’ve invested in me, the time and everything really.”
Alesha Dixon said: “Ella, I love your voice. It was a very subtle, intimate performance and the fact that you’re here doing original material is admirable and I think you’re one to watch.”
David Walliams: “It is very brave to come on and sing an original song. You’re so young and yet you’re already on your way to being a star.”
