I LOVE CANDY GIGI
Candy Gigi performed her Edinburgh preview at Monkey Business last night ,and I watched several audience members wiping tears from their eyes with laughter . Candy`s performance had everything one could possibly wish for enthralling ,exciting , risky ,outrageous ,and she has a beautiful soul voice too .I predict Candy will get more recognition at the fringe .I hope she wins best new fringe act because in my view she would deserve it .Candy Gigy is one of Britain`s best female acts !!
