Jenna Honeo beats off competition from artists across the globe

A 33 year old singer from Brackley has won the final of a worldwide competition.

Jenna Honeo has beaten thousands of hopeful artists from across the globe to win “Pride Stars”. In an online final which aired for the first time on Friday afternoon she received more public support than the seven other finalists.

Jenna will now get the opportunity to sing on the main stage at Pride in Maspalomas in front of thousands of people. She’s also won an all expenses paid trip to Pride Amsterdam with VIP passes and one thousand Euros to invest in her entertainment career.

An emotional Jenna said: “I am so happy. I feel so blessed. My life has changed so much recently. This is the icing on the cake.”

The result comes off the back of a public vote which ran for the last couple of weeks.

All Oldies All Evening

Your favourite music from the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s

Spend your evening with us for brilliant memories from four decades of music - the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. Each evening we dig through our massive collection of some of the biggest songs from three fantastic decades. From the 1960s we'll play the songs that were around at the time when England won the World Cup, man stepped on the moon for the first time, Dr Who was first broadcast, and everyone was groovy during the summer of love. From the 1970s it's the tunes that will bring back memories from the period when the sun never stopped shining during that long hot summer, people played with Simon, we went to see movies like Grease and Jaws for the first time, and we boogied at the best discos. From the 1980s we select songs that were around in the era of the first CD players and home computers, the iron lady, the first episode of The Simpsons and the Live Aid concerts. From the 1990s the music will evoke memories of Cool Brittania, Girl Power, Britpop and big puffa jackets. You'll be singing along with your favourite music from four brilliant decades all evening long!
