Victoria Hart: From Waitress to Million Dollar Contract
Victoria Hart was a waitress before she landed her million dollar record deal. Before her sudden success she was waitressing at a restaurant in Richmond called the Naked Turtle. Hello Magazine says she was "picked from obscurity" to perform at a lavish party in front of a group of huge stars that included Brad Pitt and George Clooney. The audience of a-listers loved her performance and soon there was a bidding war among music publishers.
Recalling the moment she was asked to sing for the Hollywood elite, the Essex-raised blonde says: "I was in a bit of a bad mood that day, but then they said, 'Guess who's going to be there? Brad Pitt and George Clooney.' I couldn't stop laughing."
Ironically it was at a jazz event in Cannes that Victoria, then aged 15, was first discovered, although her big break has not come until now. Since the party, interest in the singer has rocketed and she has accepted an offer to perform at Glastonbury. There's a single out soon and her first album, Whatever Happened To Romance, is scheduled for release at the start of July.
Despite the prospect of a future in showbiz, Victoria says she won't be giving up on waitressing at the Naked Turtle just yet. She does plan on reducing her work hours to one shift a fortnight, though.
