Agreed. She was the best singer in Girls Aloud but shoved to the sidelines because of old Tweedy and Nadine. I remember watching her on Pop Stars the Rivals and she sang "River Deep Mountain High" and for a 16 year old she was fantastic.
I cannot believe her manager never realised just how good she is? Stay solo do a Diana Ross? fantastic vocal, Talk about hiding your light under a bushel? Truly beautiful to listen too, a natural.
Nicola was pushed to the back because She wasn't considered as aesthetically appealing to the eyes as the others. But non of the other Girls Aloud members were ever in Nicola's league in terms of vocal talent. The music industry these days is such a superficial, shallow buisness
How sad we never knew how talented this beauty was! She was always in the background, in the shadow of Cheryl/Nadine. I DID NOT know what an incredible voice she had! 😲😲☹😓 I hope she is Queen Bee🐝. Nicola it's your time to shine now. The world needs to hear & appreciate this beautiful voice. Queen Bee's🐝 character is so lovely, so sweet; I wanted her to win from the start. I can't wait to see who it is! Come on Queen Bee, you can do it......I hope you win! ❤👑👢🐝
fabulous 123 Speak for yourself there. I've been a fan of hers ever since she went solo. Just hoping that she has another album up her sleeve soon. 7 years (8 years? I lose track) is a long old time to wait.
@@s4tchm0j0n3s I haven't been following 'pop' music for some years now, so I had no idea this little beauty 'who was in the shadows', was so talented. Part of me is furious because when I watched the group she was always being criticised by the press whilst some of the others were catapulted into the spotlight. I am a firm believer it's her time now. I am sure those comments have knocked her confidence as she seemed a tad nervous without the mask ( she also mentioned it a few weeks ago). She just needs to believe in herself(not easy, I know), SHE IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I loved the Queen Bee Character from the start, the way she stroked her hair etc and danced after her performances were so sweet. I think that's what made her so likeable as well as her vocals. She TRULY deserved to win, I am so happy. She was the 'CINDERALLA' of the group! We love you NICOLA, it's your time to shine 'Queen Bee' 🐝🐝❤❤😍😍😍😗😗
@@jacquelinealleyne618 aww bless her. Who got most of the attention? Cheryl......it's so unfair. It's Nicola's time now, I really hope she gets the respect she deserves! ❤❤
I was literally about to type this! Cheryl is god-awful in comparison to Nicola. Nicola has a beautiful voice and I hope after Masked Singer (because let's face it, it's clearly her under that mask!) I hope she sings more :)
Nikki Purvis........ I voted for her to join the girl group, that is the only time have ever voted for a talent competition. Her day will definitely come......what a beautiful talent 👏👏👏👏🌷🌸🌹🌺🌻🌼💖💖
This girl is so true to herself - no edge, no pretence or showing off, just talent. Just so demure and genuine but with an inner steel it seems. Nice one Nicola - amazing singer! x
Queeen Bee. Where have you been hiding Nicola. Your vocals are astounding. And I'm saddened that she didn't get much lines in girls aloud. You and Nadine are best singers. Now its your time to shine honeyyy. Xxx
Live Performances 100% certain. As soon as her clue video played, I knew it was her. But the second she began singing, it was a given. She has always had a beautiful, unique voice that was greatly underused in Girls Aloud.
Cheryl had the look they were wanting. Gorgeous, personality (which I personally think is shite), she could dance. She stood out. Nicola was the wild card in the comp and it’s so sad they never used her as her vocal talents surpass that of them all and is on par with Nadine.
Our beautiful Girl with her " Dainty Doll Face "( Dainty Doll Makeup ) and unique voice has finally become Queen Bee. She raised her right shoulder in her cute little way that she sometimes does after her song. She did after the first sing. You Beat You Drum girl. You are the greatest " Masked singer ".
Stunning woman, stunning voice. So glad she has come out of the darkness and those dark times ----- and so its now time to shine beaut. One word - Respect!
Totally ditto comments below. So much the best singer in Girls Aloud and a lovely beautiful person. She deserves more credit and success than she has already had. Hope she gets it.
It's so easy to fall in love with her...her voice...personality...carisma...everything that she is - and will always be: the most beautiful girl in the world.
Queen bee Damn, I never realised how good she was. Always in the shadows. Of the other girls sorry, they can't sing for s***. Truly truly one of the best voices I've heard for a long time. Will always be my queen bee.😘
There was such a big clue last week that all the judges missed. "I don't speak French, so I'll stick to England for now." When she said that I immediately thought of "I Can't Speak French" by Girls Aloud.
Wow, that was a fantastic surprise, she was wasted in Girls Aload! What a beautiful and clear voice! We need to see and hear more of the very talented girl!
I must admit I find the "where has she been hiding", "always stuck at the back of girls aloud" and "she needs to release an album" comments funny because... There have been many a gay (among others) who have been trying to make everyone aware of how great a talent that Nicola possesses - even more so since 2011 when she released her critically acclaimed 'Cinderella's Eyes' solo album. It's not our fault that the British public possess a bias and unwillingness that prevents them from supporting girl group members unless they're Beyoncé or Cheryl. Nicola certainly put the work in to promote and showcase herself on several TV shows, radios and prints when the record came out - you just chose to ignore it.
No, I listened to her music and it's pretty bad. Her album bombed for a reason. She didn't get good writers. This song is awesome, her songs on the masked singer were fabulous. She needs better music. Even sia would sound bad singing Nicola's album, be honest.
The singles from CE were (are!) cool, interesting tracks. Beat Of My Drum, especially, was ace and ahead of its time. But, as shown by the comments here and the reaction to Masked Singer. people really want to hear Nicola singing GREAT SONGS.
so glad she won the masked singer uk !! always thought she held back in girls aloud.. when they did the musicals medley on one of their tours there was a section nicola sang and she was belting out them notes like a pro!
What a very talented young women along with Kathrin Jenkins a sensational debut for he Masked Singer UK! It pays nothing and is very hard congratulation to all the performers for taking that chance.
Now she has won the masked singer she will get more coverage,she deserves it.
Agreed. She was the best singer in Girls Aloud but shoved to the sidelines because of old Tweedy and Nadine. I remember watching her on Pop Stars the Rivals and she sang "River Deep Mountain High" and for a 16 year old she was fantastic.
Clare B80 omg me too! I will always remember her singing that!
I true hidden gem, who doesn't get the exposure she deserves
I cannot believe her manager never realised just how good she is? Stay solo do a Diana Ross? fantastic vocal, Talk about hiding your light under a bushel? Truly beautiful to listen too, a natural.
Best singer pushed to the back of group. Well everyone knows now shes good.
Exactly what I've thought for years. She was so underrated. She's been my fave since the beginning.
Disagree. Hers is a talent that comes from maturity and has taken years to craft.
@@justschr agreed! She is the youngest member of the band so think we're now seeing her peak.
Nicola was pushed to the back because She wasn't considered as aesthetically appealing to the eyes as the others. But non of the other Girls Aloud members were ever in Nicola's league in terms of vocal talent. The music industry these days is such a superficial, shallow buisness
@@happynappy I’m surprised with that. I honestly think she’s so beautiful & fits the beauty standard just as much as much as the rest of the girls.
How sad we never knew how talented this beauty was! She was always in the background, in the shadow of Cheryl/Nadine.
I DID NOT know what an incredible voice she had! 😲😲☹😓
I hope she is Queen Bee🐝. Nicola it's your time to shine now. The world needs to hear & appreciate this beautiful voice.
Queen Bee's🐝 character is so lovely, so sweet; I wanted her to win from the start.
I can't wait to see who it is!
Come on Queen Bee, you can do it......I hope you win! ❤👑👢🐝

She was actually the best singer of the group when she was on popstars
@@jacquelinealleyne618 aww bless her. Who got most of the attention? Cheryl......it's so unfair. It's Nicola's time now, I really hope she gets the respect she deserves! ❤❤
Funny how Cheryl had the weakest voice in the group yet became the most successful. Success doesn't always favour the most talented unfortunately
I am convinced she’s queen b! 🐝 also by far the most underrated member of girls aloud!
I was literally about to type this! Cheryl is god-awful in comparison to Nicola. Nicola has a beautiful voice and I hope after Masked Singer (because let's face it, it's clearly her under that mask!) I hope she sings more :)
But queen bee is under 30.
You were right.
Nikki Purvis........ I voted for her to join the girl group, that is the only time have ever voted for a talent competition. Her day will definitely come......what a beautiful talent 👏👏👏👏🌷🌸🌹🌺🌻🌼💖💖
This girl is so true to herself - no edge, no pretence or showing off, just talent. Just so demure and genuine but with an inner steel it seems. Nice one Nicola - amazing singer! x
Nicola needs to release an album, her voice is fab 👌
Shazza Payne Check her 2011 LP Cinderella’s Eyes
She’s released one but I’m hopeful there will be many more!
I always knew Nicola had a powerful voice with a distinct tone but this truly showcases how phenomenal it really is! ❤
This version brought me to tears. Nicola is so talented. I'll be Team Ginge forever.
Jamie Rigby RIGHT!!! I AM SO MAD I MISSED HER IN NYC :(
When she hits the high notes, it’s very clear she’s queen bee
It's easy to follow what the judges came up with.
Monica Diep is it or is it jade from little mix???
@@therunawaykid6523
It's not Jade
underwaterbubbles What do you mean?
The Runaway Kid sounds nothing like jade in my opinion
Queeen Bee. Where have you been hiding Nicola. Your vocals are astounding. And I'm saddened that she didn't get much lines in girls aloud. You and Nadine are best singers. Now its your time to shine honeyyy. Xxx
SHIT..... This was just amazing!! Where has this voice been!! Her voice and fashion is just on point! Going to download this 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
OMG!!! I never EVER knew that Nicola had SUCH a beautiful voice!!! Wow! My mind is blooooown. 👏🏼❤️
joelarama she was overshadowed by the media consentrating on bloody Cheryl who had no talent!!
Queen Bee is that you? 👑🐝
Bazz I think so, it’s why I am here too 🤣
Literally here after listening to queen bee to compare as I was sure it was her!! 100% it’s her
Tom Richardson yes we are right ☺️🥳
Its jade im sure its jade from littel mix
Brie Clark yeah I agree it sounds more like her than Nicola does here
I was so sure that Queen Bee was jade but now I 100% think it’s Nicola!!
Shannon Gregory Correct and a great songwriter as well...
Queen bee masked singer UK?
Live Performances 100% certain. As soon as her clue video played, I knew it was her. But the second she began singing, it was a given. She has always had a beautiful, unique voice that was greatly underused in Girls Aloud.
100% lol. I'm on here checking vids too trying to work it out haha. It's got to be her!
Definitely her, you can tell by the tone of her voice, it’s unique.
Haa haa.. Yes! I've come to UA-cam to do my detective work. But now I'm certain. Just beautiful 💖💖💖
It's our Queen Bee 100%
How Cheryl got more lines than her in girls aloud is beyond me
Great job
MrPaddy646 more pop
MrPaddy646 more universal *
It is called personality
I love Cheryl but Nicola is totally more talented and a better singer. It’s true, it’s who you know lol
Cheryl had the look they were wanting. Gorgeous, personality (which I personally think is shite), she could dance. She stood out. Nicola was the wild card in the comp and it’s so sad they never used her as her vocal talents surpass that of them all and is on par with Nadine.
OMG she's perfect!!!!!! Nicola deserves all the attention of the world!
100% Queen Bee! The high notes, the body language. I'm pretty sure
I miss her music!
I love the fragility and raw emotion in Nicola's voice.
What a beautiful voice she has, I hope her time to shine away from the shadow of girls aloud comes soon. She deserves it.
Nicola has always been my queen since day 1 of girls aloud coming out and her amazing album!
We... love the album. Do a tour. Oh if you feel like it, release another album.
Our beautiful Girl with her " Dainty Doll Face "( Dainty Doll Makeup ) and unique voice has finally become Queen Bee.
She raised her right shoulder in her cute little way that she sometimes does after her song. She did after the first sing. You Beat You Drum girl. You are the greatest " Masked singer ".
Such a beautiful woman! She has turned into a swan, wonderful!
Revisiting this in 2023 because i was there and this performance was unforgettable.
Beautiful voice could listen to her sing all day long. I really hope she proves to be Queen Bee and goes on to win.
Just beautiful. Where has she been hiding. All this time. Lovely girl with an outstanding voice👏👏👏🌟🌟🌟❤️❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Wow, this gave me goosebumps. Definitely the better singer out of the girls aloud for sure. Natural beauty too
I miss Nicola I love you, you need to come back to us and spread your beautiful voice everywhere for the world to hear.
Stunning woman, stunning voice. So glad she has come out of the darkness and those dark times ----- and so its now time to shine beaut. One word - Respect!

I wish she’d make another album. I love her voice, she’s so talented!
What about...... that voice ! Amazing
There was such a big clue last week that all the judges missed. "I don't speak French, so I'll stick to England for now."
When she said that I immediately thought of "I Can't Speak French" by Girls Aloud.
But Nicola actually studied French in school before Girls Aloud which is funny
beautiful
Beautiful version
She slayed this, i missed her voice
Wow, that was a fantastic surprise, she was wasted in Girls Aload! What a beautiful and clear voice! We need to see and hear more of the very talented girl!
Beautiful 💜
Wow, Nicola has grown so much vocally!
Oh wow, i love this version :) Nicola you smashed it , Beautiful xx
Brilliant... her voice is better than all the others in girls aloud
Amma Opoku much much better I agree she’s amazing!
This is really beautiful and deserves more recognition!
Nicola is so underrated - this song really showcased her voice!
Some good qualities!❤️❤️❤️
I must admit I find the "where has she been hiding", "always stuck at the back of girls aloud" and "she needs to release an album" comments funny because...
