Britain's Got Talent singer Natalie Okri says school bullies make her 'cry'
The schoolgirl, who has been singing since the age of four, has admitted that she is bullied at school as a result of her singing ability.
Natalie, who lives with her mother and 20-year-old sister Michelle in South London, said: "There is one girl who makes fun of me because I wear ordinary clothes and she wears fashion stuff.
"But I know I can win and show them all what I can do," she told the Daily Mail.
Her mother Tabeth Mupondihunga confirmed the youngster had been physically and verbally abused since auditioning for the show.
The youngster, who is estranged from her father, said she wanted to win the competition and £100,000 prize money to buy a new house for her mother and sister.
Simon Cowell described her as "totally and utterly adorable" and Piers Morgan said she was a "a very very little girl with a very very big voice".
There is one more audition show for Britain's Got Talent, which will air next Saturday before a week of live shows culminating in the grand final on May 30.
However, Scottish singing sensation Susan Boyle still remains the favourite to win the competition and the chance to entertain the Queen at the Royal Variety Performance this year.
The 48-year-old spinster first stunned viewers and judges with her rendition of I Dreamed A Dream from musical Les Miserables.
Her performance on the first episode of this year's Britain's Got Talent has been viewed almost 200 million times after it was posted on YouTube. Now an international star, Boyle has appeared on Oprah Winfrey's US chat show.
