"My brother and I both have the same sense of humour — we're both stupid," said Vicky. "He is incredibly talented and I'm really proud of him but today is all about me finally. "I didn't ask Danny to come today. I need this opportunity as much as anybody. Believe me I have been trying for ten years. "Sir Tom and Kylie both turned around just before Vicky reached the end of her song, with Kylie commenting after, "I would be a bag of nerves up there but you didn't sound nervous one little bit. You totally nailed it.""As the song went on you got stronger," said Sir Tom. "I got to feel what you were doing and I loved that. And that's why I turned around. I think you're a great singer and I think we could work well together."
