‘Sad but grateful’: Despina Savva on her elimination from The Voice Australia 2020

·

15-year-old singing sensation, Despina Savva, was eliminated from The Voice Australia 2020 last night but not before going out with a bang with her amazing rendition of Billie Eilish’s ‘Bellyache.’

“When your attitude and sass kicked in… you reminded me once again why I chose you as my Wildcard,” Despina’s coach, Kelly Rowland, said after her performance.

But sadly in the end, Kelly decided to take two other artists, Chris Sebastian and Mark Furze, through to the semi finals on Wednesday night.

“I’m feeling sad that I didn’t get in but so happy and grateful. I’ve had so much fun and have so much to offer to the world!” Despina tells The Greek Herald.

Despina’s journey on the show was somewhat of a rollercoaster ride after she was saved by Kelly during the Battle Rounds and then given a wildcard in last week’s playoffs.

But the Sydney girl never gave up and it’s this determination that the Greek Australian community can’t wait to see more of in the days and years to come!
