The judges smiled as they watch this girl reveal her raw talent on television. Cheers echoed continually around the room as the singer flowed through the lyrics. In most cases when an artist covers a song originally performed by the opposite gender, the final product doesnโ€™t come out just right. For Zhavia, however, there was no such issue.
