Sept 6, 2007 Luciano Pavarotti dies.
2012 An 8 year girl in Holland, named Amira Willighagen, begins to study the song Nessun Dorma she has on a Paul Potts CD. She listens over and over and attempts to learn to sing it without help.
Dec 28, 2012 A nine year old Amira wins Holland's Got Talent singing Nessun Dorma, based on Paul Potts' version.
It is commonly thought that Jackie Evancho, Jonathan and Charlotte, and Susan Boyle were winners of Got Talent shows. In fact all three were runners up. Amira and Paul Potts were the only first place winners.
Paul Potts was very fond of Amira, and the two did many charity concerts together, Paul always giving Amira encouragement.
This video of Amira teasing Paul Potts in a mirror is exceedingly cute.
