Sadly lost her fight with cancer. Also an X-Factor contestant Leona Lewis year.

How sad; she was a really sweet girl.
Funnily enough this connects with the "disabled" thread on the Your Views board.
I was really happy to feature someone disabled on our Song For Europe show - I think that kind of positive discrimination is a good thing; she sang great; it was a great song; let her sing.
When she rehearsed I told her to use her arms less - she seemed to be over compensating. She really appreciated my comment and said most people wouldn't have dared tell her - being politically correct - but she felt I was absolutely right. And, as a result, gave a terrific performance; nobody need to have known she was paralysed from the waist down.
I liked her enormously and thought she had a sweet voice.
And I loved crossing several boundaries with that track.
RIP Kerry.
