Clooney singer heads to Glasto

The teenage waitress who found fame after singing for George Clooney in Cannes is set to perform at Glastonbury.

Jazz singer Victoria Hart was chosen to perform onboard an £80 million yacht during the film festival on recommendation by the organisers of the A-list bash.

The party was held to raise money for Darfur, and guests included Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

Since then, the 18-year-old has become an overnight sensation.

Record companies are now queuing up to sign her, and she will perform at the John Peel stage for up-and-coming artists at the summer festival.

The singer, who works as a "singing waitress" at the Naked Turtle restaurant in Richmond, south-west London, describes her music as "kind of a female version of Frank Sinatra".

She said: "It's kind of like 1940s and 1950s big band stuff with a contemporary twist - modern lyrics and references to the internet and that sort of thing."
