Hollie Steel’s entry to Britain’s Got Talent “An Afterthought”

Hollie Steel’s parents only entered her into the “Britain’s Got Talent” competition so that she didn’t feel left out after her older brother Joseph auditioned.
Now along with Susan Boyle and Shaheen Jafargholi, she is a favourite to win the competition.
Hollie Steel’s parents, Nina and Jason Steel, have admitted that they only entered Hollie into the competition as an after thought.
‘We were taking Josh because we thought it would be more appropriate for him to get on and progress his career as a 15-year-old lad than a 10-year-old girl,’ said mum to the Daily Mail.
‘We weren’t really thinking about a career for Hollie at 10, but when she auditioned I could see the judges were a bit taken aback.’
Nina Steel said Joshua, 15, had requested trying out for Britain’s Got Talent, so she felt that it was only fair to ask Hollie if she wanted to have a go too. Brother and sister went to the auditions in Manchester in November 2008, and performed one after the other.
Sadly for Joshua, the judges were not impressed with his tap dancing, nor his singing of “Fly Me to the Moon”. However, they offered little Hollie the chance to come back and sing in front of Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Piers Morgan and Kelly Brook. The audition was recorded in February.
‘Josh took it really well,’ Mrs Steel said. ‘He doesn’t mind. He’s pleased for Hollie.’
