Charlotte Maria Church was born on February 21, 1986 in Llandaff, Cardiff, Wales, United Kingdom to Steven Reed and his wife Maria. The couple separated shortly after the child's birth, and she was left in her mother's care. She started singing publicly when she was only three and a half years old, singing the Ghostbusters (1984) theme with her cousin at a seaside holiday camp in Caernarfon, Wales. She came to public notice after an appearance on the UK daytime magazine program, This Morning (1988) (aka "This Morning with Richard and Judy") and then made an impromptu appearance on The Big Big Talent Show (1996). She came on to say a few words about her aunt Caroline Cooper, who was also making an appearance on the show, and the show's host, Jonathan Ross, asked her to sing. She stole the show and immediately became an overnight sensation in her native Wales. More television and concert appearances followed, such as the ones at Cardiff Arms Park in Wales, the London Palladium, and the Royal Albert Hall, and opening for Shirley Bassey in Antwerp, Belgium. She was signed to Sony Music (UK) and has released three best selling albums of popular classics. Show less «

Jay Leno was a lovely guy - Jonathan Ross is awesome as well, mind. I have been on Oprah (Oprah Winfrey) a number of times and Letterman (David Letterman), but they weren't very personable, it was all for show and I think that makes a massive difference. Jay Leno and Jonathan Ross are different, they always make an effort off screen to come and say hello and get to know you. It is a little thing, but it makes a big difference. I understand that to the others it's just a job and that's fine, but it makes the ones who do bother really stand out. Show less «

[on the Conservatives' 2015 general election win] This week the UK masochistically condemned itself to five more years of Tory rule. Without the Lib Dems to centre them they have no restraint, nothing to stop them destroying our welfare system, selling off our health services or even making constraints upon our democracy.
