Britain's Hero Paul Potts To Sing For The Queen

Liverpool, England (Top40 Charts/ Columbia Records) - Columbia recording artist Paul Potts' (https://paulpottsmusic.net/) victory on Britain's Got Talent earned him the chance to perform for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and His Royal Highness The Duke of Edinburgh at the 79th Royal Variety Performance on Monday, December 3rd at the Empire Theatre in Liverpool, England.

Despite having now sold nearly two million copies of his debut CD, 'One Chance' and performing for thousands of people around the world since his win in June, Potts admits to feeling nervous about the show. "No doubt I will be pacing the floor before I go on. Singing in front of the Queen has to be one of the highlights of the year - but there have been so many."

"I will be nervous when we meet the Queen afterwards too," he continues, "and I'm not sure what I will say to her."

This year will be the first time the British public will have chosen an act for the annual Royal Variety Performance, a holiday tradition. Other vocalists on this year's bill include Bon Jovi, Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, James Blunt and Enrique Iglesias. The event benefits the Entertainment Artistes' Benevolent Fund.

The 37-year-old opera singer won't reveal what he will be singing for the Queen, but says his fans in the live and TV audience won't be disappointed.
Potts will begin a world tour in January 2008.
