Who is Victoria Hart?

Victoria Hart, evolved from a struggling singing waitress to superstar within a month!  Thanks to a performance at the Cannes film festival in May 2008, organised by George Clooney and Brad Pitt.  

The singing waitress, whose debut album Whatever Happened To Romance was released in July is now planning a trip to Afghanistan to play in front of 500 soldiers.  Victoria, the singing waitress  was making just £6 an hour before being spotted and whisked to Cannes to perform for George Clooney and Brad Pitt. Since then, she has also performed at Glastonbury.

Born in California, Victoria moved around when she was a child, living in Essex and finally settling in the south of France. Her parents now live in New York. Despite hating school, she moved to London to take singing lessons.

Her big break came when a prop buyer with film connections heard her sing in the restaurant and put her name forward for a party at Cannes. Two weeks later, she was mingling with the rich and famous. 

Following a one-album record deal with Universal for £1.5 million, there was no mistaking what Victoria would splash out on with her advance. Victoria pays homage to the 1920s with her fashion sense which she says she gets from her 75 year old Grandmother.
