ITV plan to make Britain's Got Talent winner 'new Mariah Carey' with 'huge Christmas show'
Earlier this year, ITV viewers saw Sydnie Christmas crowned the winner of Britain's Got Talent. The singer, who was Amanda Holden's golden buzzer act, captivated the nation with her stunning vocals throughout the competition.
After securing the title, the star bagged a hefty cash prize of £250,000. However, it appears ITV have grand plans for Sydnie, with the BGT star set to be the highlight of the broadcaster's Christmas Day schedule.
A TV insider told The Sun: "Sydnie could become ITV's very own Mariah Carey."
"Her team have been in talks with top execs about making a show for Christmas Day, like an old-school variety special. Her name obviously lends itself to Christmas so it would be a blockbuster festive spectacular."
According to the source, Sydnie will host her own show where she'll belt out a series of festive classics along with her own Christmas single.

With Amanda Holden and Alan Carr co-hosting the annual special, it's likely audiences will see the 53-year-old introduce Sydnie on stage.
Last month, the singer released her first single Starlight Express, with her debut album My Way expected for a September release.
Sharing a glimpse of the process behind creating the single on her Instagram, some of her followers couldn't contain their excitement ahead of hearing new music from the star.
