She was taking her GCSE exams in Barry during her time on the show, which wasn’t plane sailing.
Simon Cowell cut her off in her first audition when she sang Don’t Rain On My Parade’ by Barbra Streisand.

She was allowed to start again and stunned the judges with an original song, and later said: “In that moment I was devastated.

“Everything I had done had led to that moment, and I thought it was the end. But when Simon let me sing again I came out fighting.
“It’s been a rollercoaster ever since.”
Jodi lost out on a spot in the BGT final when the judges decided to put through Addict Initiative instead – without knowing she had won more of the public vote.
