BRITAIN'S Got Talent winner Sydnie Christmas is set for West End fame after being crowned the champion of the ITV talent show.

The 28-year-old, who won last night's public vote ahead of magician Jack Rhodes and dancers Abigail and Afronitaaa, has already impressed a number of producers.

A source said: "She is set for big things.

"Her name in any production could super-charge ticket sales, and there has already been a lot of interest." Singer Sydnie wins £250,000 and a slot on the Royal Variety Performance.

She is currently working in a fitness centre but has appeared in touring productions.

After her win, she said: "I cannot believe the amount of love that I felt since it aired.
