The Greatest Showman is indeed a remarkable film, and “Never Enough” is one of its standout tracks. While Rebecca Ferguson played Jenny Lind in the movie, it was Loren Allred who provided the powerful vocals for the song.
Allred’s performance is nothing short of extraordinary, and it’s a bit surprising that she didn’t receive more recognition for it. Sometimes, the behind-the-scenes talent doesn’t always get the spotlight they deserve!
Loren Allred seized the opportunity to showcase her talent on Britain’s Got Talent, aiming to introduce herself to the audience and the judges, including Simon Cowell. Her performance of “Never Enough” was so impressive that Simon Cowell was left speechless.
At this point, Loren Allred introduces herself to the panel of judges, revealing her impressive background. She shares that she was the voice behind the famous song in The Greatest Showman, although it was performed on screen by the actress Rebecca Ferguson.
Simon Cowell responds, acknowledging the significance of her revelation and noting that Allred’s rendition of the song is one of the most iconic in music history.
When asked why she is stepping into the spotlight now, Loren Allred explained, “I was more comfortable singing behind the scenes, but I feel like the song was meant for me, and now I’m ready to put a face to it.”
This revelation left the audience in awe as they realized that the woman performing on stage is the very same voice they had heard in the movie. At 32 years old, Allred confidently asserts that she is both the face and the voice of the song.
Before her appearance on Britain’s Got Talent, Loren Allred shared with The Sun that she was “still trying to make a name for myself” in the music industry. At that time, she was not tied to a recording contract.
Despite her extensive experience in the music industry, she felt that few people knew her name. “Even though I’ve been working in music for many years, I’ve struggled to gain recognition. I’ve been putting in a lot of effort over the years to improve my chances of success and attract attention,” she explained.
Loren Allred explained, “The opportunity to sing ‘Never Enough’ came from my role as a session singer in the choir. Even though the song became a huge hit, many people still believe that the actress performed it. I’ve never had the chance to share my own story.”
Allred’s performance began a bit unsteady, but once she found her rhythm, she delivered a show-stopping rendition. She hit every high note flawlessly, prompting everyone, including the judges, to leap to their feet in admiration.
As Amanda Holden rose to her feet and pressed the Golden Buzzer, gold confetti cascaded down on Loren Allred from the rafters, leaving the judges in awe of her extraordinary performance. After a long wait, Loren stepped into the spotlight, emerging from the shadows into a radiant glow.
