31-year-old Samantha “Sami” Brookes has always had a great personality and a powerful voice. What she hasn’t had is confidence. After comparing herself to Beyonce, Britney, and so many other stars before her, she didn’t think she had what it took to make her dreams come true.

But after working up the courage to chase her dream no matter the cost, she nervously walked out onto the X Factor stage. It’s obvious the judges were a little amused by her nervousness, but when she began singing “One Moment in Time”… all I can say is WOW! I haven’t seen a reaction like this very often! And I LOVE what the judge told her at 5:35! Perfect!
