Britain’s Got Talent winner Sydnie Christmas has reportedly received a surprise offer from a music legend.
Canadian record producer, film composer and music executive David Foster asked the 29-year-old singer from Gravesend to perform at his 75th birthday concert.
The sun reports that the big party and concert will take place at The Hollywood Bowl in November.
She is said to be performing her single My Way as part of a bill that also includes Andrea Bocelli, Michael Bublé and Jennifer Hudson.
A source told the publication: “It’s a huge achievement for Sydnie. Naturally, she can’t wait, but she’s also nervous at the thought of performing alongside some of her icons.

Canadian record producer, film composer and music executive David Foster asked the 29-year-old singer from Gravesend to perform at his 75th birthday concert.
‘David was sent her performance on BGT and fell in love with it and immediately wanted to include it on the bill.
‘Plans are being finalized now.’
MailOnline has contacted a representative for Sydney for comment.
This comes after it was reported last month that ITV’s big Christmas bash would also star Sydnie.
Show bosses are keeping the theme going for the 2024 festive season as they have lined up the 2024 BGT winner to front their December 25 schedule, according to The Sunorth.
The winner of the contest is believed to be getting her own show in which the singing sensation will perform a variety of festive favourites and her own Christmas song.
A source close to the TV show said: ‘Sydnie could become the Mariah Carey of ITV.
‘His team has been in talks with senior executives about the possibility of doing a Christmas Day show, like an old-school variety special.
“Its name obviously fits Christmas, so it would be a hugely successful festive show.”
Last year, ITV aired festive specials of The Masked Singer on Christmas Day, as well as soap operas Coronation Street and Emmerdale.

A source told the publication: “It’s a huge achievement for Sydnie. Naturally, she can’t wait, but she’s also nervous at the thought of performing alongside some of her icons.”
But ITV lost out to the BBC in the annual ratings battle as the schedule included specials of Strictly and Doctor Who.
Christmas came early for Sydnie in June, when she received £250,000 after winning BGT with her rendition of Somewhere Over The Rainbow.
The former PT became the show’s favourite after judge Amanda Holden pressed her Golden Buzzer to guarantee the singer a spot on the live shows.
ITV will once again showcase her talents at the Royal Variety Performance, which will air later this year, as part of her prize for being crowned champion.
Earlier this month, Sydnie released her first single Starlight Express ahead of her upcoming album, My Way, which is due out in late September.
The album will include tracks Over The Rainbow, My Way and Tomorrow, paying homage to Sydnie’s fascinating auditions.
He is preparing to embark on his first ever tour, which will see him play 15 dates across the country in October, starting in Gateshead and concluding in Liverpool.
Speaking about her apprehensions ahead of the live shows, Sydnie said: ‘I’ve never done anything like this before so it will be a first. I hope it goes really well, I’m praying it goes well.

‘I’m going to try to show everyone as best I can who I am and that’s really my only story with this tour, so I hope it goes really well… I’m terrified and excited.
“I feel under enormous pressure as the winner of Britain’s Got Talent. It’s hard to believe people are going to buy tickets.
‘That’s my insecure side, it worries me.
“I still can’t believe that people liked what I did and voted for it, and it’s the same thing, I can’t believe that people spend their hard-earned money on tickets. I hope they do and come see the show and continue this journey.”
