Chloe's mother is so proud of singer

Black Country singing sensation Chloe Hickinbottom was today sitting pretty as the bookies' favourite to win Britain's Got Talent - as her mother spoke of her pride.

The 10-year-old, who has links with Wolverhampton and Walsall, is 7-1 favourite after her stunning performance of the Dame Vera Lynn classic, White Cliffs of Dover.

She won a standing ovation from the audience and wowed judges on the show's series opener on Saturday night.

More than 1,500 fans are members of a Facebook campaign in support of Chloe, including her mother Lucy Bray, who said she always knew her daughter would be a singer.

She is ahead of drummer Kieran Gaffney, at 10-1 and Shrewsbury dancing dog Chandi, at 33-1.
