Eight-year-old Victoria, who wished to record her own CD, quickly has become South Florida’s newest singing sensation. On Saturday, August 1, 2009, dozens of screaming fans lined the entrance of the Improv Comedy Club in Palm Beach to greet the pint-size superstar at her CD launch party. Flanked by bodyguards and escorted in a stretch limousine, Victoria made her way down the red carpet amidst a swirl of her biggest supporters. Local television and newspaper crews were on hand to witness Victoria’s big day.

International Recording Artist Ana Cristina, who acted as Victoria’s voice coach during her day in the recording studio, surprised Victoria, who was relaxing with her parents and brother backstage in the green room. The two reunited as Victoria prepared for her dream performance, going over the song lyrics and making a wardrobe change. Debbie, Victoria’s wish granter warmed up the crowd who were also treated to two opening dance acts. Then, Ana Cristina took to the stage and dedicated her song “Miracle” to Victoria.

Victoria serenaded the audience of fans, friends and family with her sweet voice as she sang four songs, including an encore that was received with a standing ovation. Afterward,  Victoria was presented with a gold CD plaque to recognize her super stardom. Ending her wish on the perfect note, Victoria’s adoring fans formed a line that reached out the door for the chance to pose for a picture with Victoria, get her autograph and take home her CD. 

“Victoria’s Dream” is now available for a suggested minimum donation of $20 by calling the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Southern Florida at 954-967-9474.
