Stacey lives with her mum and 1 year old son (Zach) in Essex. She is no longer with Zach's father but they have remained really good friends. Her parents are divorced but still get along very well and her dad has since re-married.
She has applied before but has never made it past the first audition stage and vows to win over the judges this year as she's very determined.
She loves singing and has been performing for as long as she can remember. She thinks the judges will think she's stupid as everyone thinks she's silly but she hopes her singing will shine through.
