This Is My Life - Softcover
From a Tesco check-out to the X Factor stage ... Mary Byrne has lived every undiscovered singer's dream. With a voice of pure gold, Mary Byrne took X Factor by storm. Millions tuned in each week to propel this incredible, brave and hugely-talented singer to a life of stardom. And as the lights went down on X Factor Mary Byrne's dream just kept getting better: she recorded a number one hit album; sang for the Queen of England; performed with American legend Neil Diamond in front of a 40,000 audience; and joined the cast of Grease the Musical as 'Teen Angel'. In This Is My Life, Mary relives every moment of her twelve amazing months and takes the reader behind the scenes of X Factor to meet the judges and contestants and witness the real ups-and-downs of the boot camps and the live shows. Delving into her past, she recounts, in her frank and honest fashion, stories of colourful relationships, broken hearts, life on a kibbutz, world travels and heart-stopping moments. The inspiring, funny, heart-warming and hugely-entertaining story of a woman who found fame against the odds.
