A 17-year-old Richmond College student is one step closer to stardom after reaching the west London finals of a national talent competition.
Jeniequa Quamina, from Acton, will be appearing in the late teens category of TeenStar, a nationwide search for the UK’s best singers, songwriters and vocalists.
She said: “I’m so excited to have achieved my place in such a big competition and hopefully this will be the start of the career I’ve always dreamt of.
“I can’t wait to get the chance to sing in front of 600 people and show them what I can do, plus my family and friends will all be there to support me. It’s a really proud moment.”
She will perform to a live audience at the regional finals at the Beck Theatre in Hayes on March 16, after securing her place with her own song Found Love at auditions last month.
