79. Katherine Jenkins - Singing beauty



"I do not understand where the idea came from that opera is only for privileged people."
 
After graduating with honours from the Royal Academy of Music, Katherine did many things to earn a crust, from part-time modelling (“I hated all the waiting around all day”) to being a tour guide on the London Eye.
Whilst working as a singing teacher at a school in Hertfordshire, she was invited to showcase her talents for Universal Records. They snapped her up in 2003 on a long-term six-album contract.

Later that year, her first album Premiere was released and we’ve been lusting after her ever since. She’s got a set of lungs on her that we’re certain means she can hold her breath under the duvet for hours at a time.
