GME News - November, 2015

Editor's Note


Welcome to the November edition of Gloria Miller Entertainment News and there's loads to tell you about what's been happening around here this past month.

For the past year I've been offering private vocal & performance coaching and I am now partnering with Mayfield Academy at Mayfield Studios for their Artist Development Program. Through this program, I will continue to offer vocal & performance coaching, plus I will be involved with songwriting sessions and song production for aspiring and emerging performers. We are now enrolling students into this program and if you know of anyone who might be interested in developing themselves either as a singer, musician or songwriter you can click here for more info.

On 16 October I judged the final of Southsea's Got Talent at The Jolly Sailor and that was one of the hardest nights of my life! There were 12 finalists and all are hugely talented so I wanted everyone to win, including several of my 

Acts and vocal students who were participating. But, there could only be one winner, so me and my fellow judges had quite the job on our hands whittling the 12 down to just three.

I am thrilled to announce that the performer who placed first is a GME Artist. Now before you say 'fixed' just remember I wasn't the only judge ... LOL! Before I announce the winner, I must give a shout out to our lovely Gemma Anderson (left) who was a finalist and brought the house down with her Gospel song choice, Shackles. I must also mention the lovely Harriet Standen who is one of my vocal students. She did a very heartfelt version of Feeling Good showing off her soulful voice to this classic tune. Harriet won the Mayfield Studios songwriting competition and will be recording a 4-song album in 2016. I'll be working very closely with her on this project.

There were so many other standout performances at the final, and I wish I could tell you about all of them. So, who was the 1st place winner? Check out GME Act News to find out!

Lastly, on 22 October I attended the launch of the Portsmouth Venus Awards. Last year I performed at the Awards ceremony and was a Finalist for New Business. The launch was held at Changes Clinic in Portsmouth and the evening turned out to be a great chance to network and support other businesses. Changes offers some great surgical and non-surgical treatments for looking great and they performed demonstrations of several of their treatments at this event. I made sure to grab their contact info before I left cause, let's face it ... I'm not getting any younger.

Thank you for taking a few minutes to catch up on what we've been up to in October and please take a look at our Act of the Month and Special Offer.

That's it from me ...

And the winner of Southsea's Got Talent is ...

Congratulations to Russell Keith who won his semi-final heat and the entire competition! Russell wow'd the crowd with a very sexy version of Cry Me A River and had the judges right in the palms of his hands. Russell is the ultimate performer giving 100% to every performance and this is what pushed him over the top to win the competition!

As part of Russell's prize package, he will be recording a song at Mayfield Studios. We are very proud of Russell's accomplishment and wish him all the best with his very bright future in entertainment.


Congratulations are in order for the fabulous Bupsi Brown who made it to the Live Shows on The X Factor. Bupsi gave a powerful performance of Marvin Gaye's You're A wonderful One on the first live show on the 31st of October. Bupsi's star-quality was on full display on the show as she went up against a very strong group of competitors all fighting to impress the judges and the voting public.

Bupsi is the founding member of GME Act, The Midnight Soul Sisters and is always a crowd favorite whether she is performing solo or with MSS. You go girl!
