SEXY SOPRANO"
PRO PARTNER: Mark Ballas
In
case you were wondering who the world's most prolific classical crossover
artist is, look no further than Katherine Jenkins!
The
Welsh Mezzo Soprano has sold in excess of seven million albums since launching
her career in 2004. An internationally recognized figure, Katherine, at the age
of only 31, has become an ambassador and inspiration for millions of people
around the world.
When
she was 23, Katherine signed what was said to be the biggest ever UK classical
recording deal; she has broken records becoming the fastest selling mezzo soprano
ever, has released eight studio albums, has won two Classical BRIT awards and
broken countless records with her albums going platinum around the world. She
has performed with Placido Domingo and Andrea Bocelli, had lunch with and
performed for the Queen and other members of The Royal Family as well as Prime
Ministers and dignitaries around the world.
Having
recently worked with internationally renowned producers including David Foster
and John Shanks, Katherine's unique and timeless vocals have defined the genre.
Known for her interpretations of popular songs, operatic arias and hymns,
Katherine is also known for her long-standing work with the British Forces
Foundation for which she is a trustee and has consequently made various trips
to Iraq and Afghanistan to entertain the troops. This support for the troops
has led her to being referred to as the Forces Sweetheart.
Cherished
as one of Britain's favorite singers, Katherine has become one of our greatest
musical exports. Now she's adding Dancing with the Stars to her already
impressive list of accomplishments.
