Introducing Britain’s Got Talent winner Sydnie Christmas to a largely unfamiliar American audience, Foster gave the rising star a platform few new artists could dream of.
And Christmas delivered.
Watch her performance below.
Performing a spellbinding rendition of Frank Sinatra’s iconic ballad “My Way,” Christmas took the stage with poise and unleashed a vocal masterclass that left the crowd stunned.
Her jaw-dropping belts, control, and emotion-filled delivery turned a classic into a career-defining moment — a performance so electrifying that, by the final note, everyone in the Hollywood Bowl knew her name.
Many in attendance may not have known who Sydnie Christmas was when the night began, but by the end of the set, she had them on their feet — awestruck by a voice that channeled both vintage soul and contemporary power.
Whether you’re a fan of talent competitions or timeless show tunes, Christmas’s performance was a soaring reminder of why great songs endure and how extraordinary voices can breathe new life into them. Her take on “My Way” was not merely a tribute — it was a bold statement of arrival.
“My Way” is a classic popularized by Frank Sinatra in 1969, with English lyrics adapted by Paul Anka from the French song “Comme d’habitude.” The track has since become a defining anthem of individuality, resilience, and reflection, covered by artists around the world — from Elvis Presley to Nina Simone.
For Sydnie Christmas, the song served not just as a musical choice, but as a declaration. Having recently made history as the first female singer to win Britain’s Got Talent, she is now taking bold steps into the American spotlight, and if this Hollywood Bowl debut is any indication, her voice is here to stay.
