I'M SO EXCITED

15 March 2007

Tara blew the judges away again last night with another fantastic performance, and she was on such a high that she only got two hours of sleep.

Tara has gone from strength to strength since entering the Academy and her days of trembling in the Circle of Fear are long gone. After being told by Head Teacher Richard Park that her performance was 'awesome', she was ecstatic.

In her vocal session with Carrie this morning, a sleepy Tara hid under a big woolly hat. "I know, I have myself to blame, but I am going to work so much harder today... to stay awake," she grinned.

"I couldn't sleep last night as I was so happy with what the judges said," Tara ranted away.

But it's not just the judges who have been loving Tara's performances. You clearly have been too, because along with Ray, she has managed to stay out of the bottom three.

"It's fantastic!" Tara smiled. "That's why I couldn't sleep. I was so excited. It's unbelievable to have all that... I wanted the night to go on!"

"You are getting votes because of your talent," Carrie happily told her.

"That's hard to accept," Tara revealed. "I find it embarrassing to say I'm good at stuff. I find it easier to give a compliment than get one." Ahh.

"My voice has really improved," Tara then said, actually praising herself for a change.

Tonight Tara will be singing Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow, but will you still love her tomorrow?
