So a woman who goes on britains got talent, to be told she cant sing is now trying to sue for 2.5 mil.

she says ''it is important for me not to have 20 million people all over the world thinking i cannot sing''.

wtf what a load of tosh, i really cant believe she is for real. if she didnt want honesty she should not have gone on the show.

i hope she gets laughed out of court, money grabbing low life.

Try the DM version - apols, it happened to be on the same page as another thread linked to.

BGT Channel

That's hilarious!!!

Tired I think it might have been and yes Simon was on the case.

I'll have a nose around to see if it was indeed her...

Nope not the same lady...I wonder if she has been found

BGT lady in OP is insane if she thinks she is going to get anywhere

JebusBuiltMyHotQuads · 22/07/2010 15:56

She has been found

JebusBuiltMyHotQuads · 22/07/2010 16:00

confuddled From that video -

"Alot of people out there making music which shouldn't be making music because of attitude and they've got terrible voices..."

So, that's you then love?

thumbwitch · 22/07/2010 16:05

I think Simon was a lot less rude to her than he has been to others, actually! And yes, her grip on reality is somewhat tenuous. I'm not surprised she's representing herself - can't imagine any legal type would touch it!

"peoople cry when they hear me singing!"

I am sure that is true.

thumbwitch · 22/07/2010 16:47

I did at that too, gorionine - I'm quite sure they do as well!

"She is now trying to bring an employment tribunal against the show and music mogul Simon Cowell for disability ­discrimination.
It was revealed that Ms Czikai will attempt to claim more than £2.5million for her public humiliation including £300,000 for injuries to her feelings, £1million in compensation and £1.25million for lost earnings."

1.25 for lost earning where exactly did she lose that and when exactly was she 'hired' by them. £300,000 for injured feelings i should be rich by now.

Also don't contestants normally have to sign some sort of waver in order to take part.

This is amusing.

thumbwitch · 22/07/2010 16:50

but perhaps not...
here is the same woman singing on Britain's Got More Talent. She's not that bad on this! maybe she does have a bit of a point...

GetOrfMoiLand · 22/07/2010 16:56

I kind of applaud her.

BGT and X factor etc all have people trail on (some with obvious special needs) for the panel and audience to laugh and scoff at.

Nothing will come of this ludicrous case but good on the woman for standing up to Simon Cowell and all this kind of freak show crap.

confuddledDOTcom · 22/07/2010 16:57

If she had a problem that needed help on stage so she could sing properly she should have asked for it.

lemonysweet · 22/07/2010 16:58

oh she is just unbelievable. spouting all this about her disability affecting her singing.

yes. and? if you cant sing you cant sing. if theres a genuine medical reason....YOU STILL CANT SING. if someone with a broken ankle loses a race, they lose becausse they cant run properly. how does she propose she would have continued in the competition? 'well my condition is affecting my singing, but try and imagine me sounding really really good'

i do have sympathy for her, she is clearly unhinged.

Tootlesmummy · 22/07/2010 16:59

I do hope she is not getting legal aid! if she loses she should be made to pay all of SonyBMG costs as well. Silly cow!

gorionine · 22/07/2010 16:59

it is much better indeed ( I still do not really like her voice though) but on BGT they do not care if you sing brilliantly under your shower or behind the scene on your own. The audition is what they base their choice on and her audition was really bad.

I do not like BGT exactly because I think it often amounts to bullying but after the 4 or 5 series, surely contestants do know that they will either be applauded or destroyed on the spot. Yo have to be pretty naive to think otherwise.

singsinthebath · 22/07/2010 17:01

she's not THAT brilliant on the second clip. Very swoopy on the top notes imo. But yes, better.
But anyone who goes in for something like BGT must know the format is such that they will build some people up and humiliate others. And as for £1.25m!!!

PerpetuallyAnnoyedByHeadlice · 22/07/2010 17:06
