In 2008, Alexandra Burke was thrust into the spotlight when she won The X Factor. She went on to become a multi-million-selling international artist, a beloved star of Strictly Come Dancing and a successful West End performer. But her story is not all glitz and glamour and, in this heartfelt account, she explores the racism and microaggressions she has faced in the music industry, and the impact this has had on her career. For the first time, Alexandra will share her story from the beginning. From growing up in Islington and the early influence of her musician mother; to performing with Beyonce in that incredible performance and how her family coped with the public attention; to dealing with the death of her mother and now her newest adventure: motherhood.
