JADE Goody showed off her early star potential aged just 11 when she belted out a Whitney Houston classic during karaoke.
The late reality star – who shot to fame on Big Brother before going on to launch her own shows – looked to be always destined for fame and fortune from the home movie that will be shown tonight.
Revealed on Channel’s 4’s documentary about Jade Goody, Jade: The Reality Star Who Changed Britain, the video was taken by her family as she sang on holiday.
At just 11 years old Jade Goody sings Whitney’s The Greatest Love Of All to a room full of people, showing her determination to become a household name.
Jade’s mum Jackiey previously spoke about how much spotlight loving Jade loved to sing.
Jackiey previously told The Sun about Jade’s love of karaoke.
She said she had drawn huge comfort over the years from the many happy memories of Jade such as their caravan holidays in Canvey Island, Essex, when Jade was growing up.
She says: “Jade loved to do karaoke. One night there was a karaoke competition in the club house and she won it. She won £500.
“The next day we were in the caravan and we heard a knock on the door.
“It was the security man saying she had to give the money back.
“You had to be 18 to enter but Jade was only 14. We didn’t know. Jade was mortified. It was hilarious.”
Jackiey told how when Jade was five, her carefree hobbies of tap- dancing, gymnastics and martial arts came to an abrupt end when Jackiey lost the use of her left arm in a devastating motorbike smash.
* Jade: The Reality Star Who Changed Britain premieres tonight at 9pm on Channel 4
