Zena Donnelly gave an outstanding performance in the blind audition round of The Voice Kids UK. She performed the Jessie J track Mama Knows Best. Almost immediately the singer and judge, Pixie Lott, turned around her chair as Zena amazed the audience with her outstanding vocal range and performance.

After the performance Zena chatted with the judges will-i-am, Danny Jones (from McFly) and Pixie Lott (who will be the mentor for Zena). They were amazed and proud to see Zena sing on the stage as a seven year old with the legendary singer, Whitney Houston, at a concert.

Zena is 14 years old and represented Ireland at the 2016 Junior Eurovision Song Contest in Malta with Bríce Ar Bhríce (Brick by brick) and gave a memorable performance their also.
