Those who tuned into the 2017 film The Greatest Showman know the musical is filled with a number of giant Hollywood names — including Hugh Jackman, Michelle Williams, Zac Efron, and Zendaya. Another standout performance from the 2017 movie was once Rebecca Ferguson as opera singer Jenny Lind. But what some would possibly not notice is Rebecca in reality lip-synced her iconic song "Never Enough" while singer Loren Allred supplied the real vocals.
Currently, Loren is competing on Britain's Got Talent — the U.Ok.'s version of America's Got Talent — and her efficiency of "Never Enough" was enough to earn her the coveted Golden Buzzer. Keep studying to learn extra in regards to the singer and her time on the show.
Lorn Allred snagged the coveted Golden Buzzer on 'Britain's Got Talent.'
On Saturday, April 16, 2022, Loren Allred graced Britain's Got Talent together with her presence — even if maximum viewers had no idea who she was when she first took to the stage.
"I think some of you guys have actually heard my voice but you don't know my face," she advised judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, and David Walliams. "I sang the song 'Never Enough' on The Greatest Showman."
Loren went on to provide an explanation for that she used to be hired to sing the reference vocals for The Greatest Showman actress so they might learn the songs. "So they had me come in and sing 'Never Enough,' she said. "And it actually was once Rebecca Ferguson, who plays Jenny Lind, who said, 'I think that Loren should sing the tune and I'll lip-sync.'"
Simon proceeded to ask Loren the question that was likely on many viewers' minds: "So, you will have sang probably the most largest songs of all time. You've now published it wasn't the actress who sang the tune within the film — it used to be you making a song that music. So why did not you get that big deal after that tune?"
Loren answered, "I used to be more relaxed singing behind the scenes. But I think roughly just like the song used to be supposed for me, and I'm kind of ready to place a face to the track. So I'm here to do that."
We think it's safe to say that she accomplished her goal. By the time Loren was done with her powerful performance of "Never Enough," all four of Britain's Got Talent judges were on their feet giving a standing ovation. Moments later, Amanda enthusiastically pressed the Golden Buzzer, causing a shower of golden confetti to rain down on Loren and ensuring that she advances onto the live semi-finals.

In addition to The Greatest Showman, she's also credited for providing vocals in the 2021 film adaptation of Dear Evan Hansen, per IMDb. Loren released her first EP, "Late Bloomer," in 2021. It features her debut single "Til I Found You."
