Today, Charlotte Church is the world's most successful classical crossover female artist. International record sales have topped 14 million albums. In the United States, Voice Of An Angel, released just after she turned 13, achieved platinum status as did her 2000 Christmas collection, Dream A Dream. Charlotte’s album, Enchantment, was released in the autumn of 2001 and debuted at #8 on the Billboard Top 200 album chart.

Charlotte Church has garnered worldwide acclaim for offering audiences something completely unique: herself. It's a quality that comes across not only in the diversity of her singing--which includes Broadway musicals, chamber music, Gaelic airs and contemporary songs--but in the captivating charm and poise of this 18 year-old Welsh singing sensation. Charlotte Church not only has the voice of an angel, but a wicked flare for life.

Over the course of four albums in as many years, she has racked up international sales in excess of ten million units, earning a spot as one of Billboard's Top Ten best selling female vocalists worldwide for the year 2000 and 2001. Her concerts are consistent sellouts. Charlotte Church is the youngest artist to ever have a #1 album on the UK Classical charts.

Charlotte was a gifted singer from the age of nine when she was landed a major recording contract after a single appearance on a local TV talent show and, while she's never looked back, she also remains remarkably levelheaded about her success. Charlotte says she never wanted to be famous--she just wanted to sing. She also never wanted to be just another teeny-bopper pop star. Charlotte loves so many different types of music--she wants to do them all.

True to her conviction, Charlotte set out to carve a completely unique musical niche for herself, creating, in the process, a worldwide following that spans borders as easily as it does generations, reaching audiences of every musical persuasion.

Charlotte says she doesn't want to be stuck in any one category. It's true that, because of her age, she doesn't have the life experience to sing about things like love and death. But, as she gets older, she’ll find that she can be a bit more of a narrator, telling the story and conveying the emotion of a song. And that opens a whole new world of possibilities.

Miss Charlotte has been creating a bit of a stir in the British media recently, Marvin. She got engagd to a boy who was a total ass (not a very nice boy, had a criminal record as long as your arm) which didn't make her mum very happy. They moved in together, but split up when she found out he had been cheating on her. He allegedly made death threats against her, and has recently been trying to see his story to various newpapers. His new girlfriend has been quoted as saying "Charlotte may have the voise of an angel but she's got the face and body of a cow"..yeah, very nice people, as you can tell. Charlotte herself was in fear of her life and had to flee the apartment she once shared with him - and went on holiday to the Bahamas with her Mum for a bit of R&R. She's selling the apartment, and has taken legal advice regarding her former fiance. Good for her! He's an idiot.

That was my 'Charlotte News' item for this week.
