Appearing on Lorraine in November 2018, she reflected on her rise to stardom at such as young age.
Talking about watching back her first audition, she said: "It’s really weird, it doesn’t feel like me it just feels like a little girl – but it was such a good time."
Connie is currently on a UK tour and is playing venues in Glasgow, Manchester, London and Dublin between May 3 and May 8.
She is performing with American pop and rock band Boyce Avenue on the UK leg of their tour.
The singer said she is looking to release new tracks soon: "I’m down in London a lot, doing a lot of writing sessions, so hopefully I’ll release some new material next year.
"I’ve been writing a lot of soul and pop, like Adele, Sam Smith and Alicia Keys – I love singing those songs," she added.
If her nine million views are anything to go by we should watch this space - Connie talent is on the rise!
