    I know Lesley Garrett is a hugely renound star but many hold a prejudice against her as they disagree with her calling herself an opera singer hide show

    I am more open minded and I see Lesley as more of an operretta singer. I recently saw her in Carousel in Londons Savoy Theatre, she was brilliant, not only with a beautiful rendition of You'll never walk alone but alson showed brilliant acting skills. Her singing is undoubtedly a class act, and I think she deserves her fame and fortune, her latest album Amazing Grace is beautiful coming close ot my person favourite of When I Fall In Love! Many people are rude about her outgoing personality and say she overacts and always adds in a bit of singing wherever she goes, especially on her appearances on Loose Women, but I think this is all part of her charm. I have been lucky enough to meet her in person and she was definetly not over the top in real life, but down to earth and happy to stop and chat with her fans for a few moments.

    Lesley Garrett - One of the greatest Brits of ALL time!!! hide show

    I am a big fan of Lesley\'s- i recently went to see her perform Merry Widow in the Merry Widow in Edinburgh and she totally blew me away!!! Her voice and acting was stunning - no wonder she's Britain\'s most popular soprano, she really connects with an audience and you can tell she loves what she does.
    Lesley is without a doubt a national treasure, she is warm, funny and so very talented - we should thank God for her, she\'s fabulous!
