She then released her winners single ‘Stand By You’ which debuted at number 2 on the ARIA charts, followed by her self titled debut album, which entered the charts at number six.
After a determined struggle with the music industry, Samantha Jade broke through after winning the 2012 season of the show, subsequently releasing her winner's single ‘What You’ve Done To Me’ which debuted at number one. She has also since developed her acting career, appearing as Kylie Minogue in the TV mini-series INXS: Never Tear Us Apart’.
Both performers will be having ‘meet and greet’ sessions after their performances at the event, giving fans the chance to have a chat, get an autograph and take a photo.
