It’s now up to you to keep voting to help our Forbes girl be crowned winner of the show.
On Monday night she performed Olivia Newton-John’s Xanadu before being announced as a grand finalist with fellow Team Delta competitor Steve Clisby leaving the show.
She then went on to sing an original song, Candle in the Night, in the semi-final.
When the Forbes Advocate spoke with Celia on Tuesday morning she said she was feeling a range of emotions that she had made it to the grand final.
“I am very proud of myself and so thankful to everyone who voted for me,” she said.
“I honestly didn’t know what was going to happen and I am so excited that I made it through to the grand final.”
When Celia sang Xanadu she performed without her guitar for the first time on the show.
“It felt very different without my guitar. I felt exposed but in a good way,” she said.
“I was able to walk around and dance which was fun and the audience got to see another side of me.”
The original song Celia performed was written two and a half years ago.
It was already a success on YouTube, receiving almost 400,000 hits before she sang it on Monday night.
She once again dedicated her performance to boyfriend Hugo and coach Joel Madden said he was ‘hating on’ him after hearing the song because there was ‘real love in the lyrics’ and it was ‘such a beautiful song’.
Celia said Hugo was overwhelmed when they put the camera on him after the comments.
“It was all just a bit of fun and Hugo has just been so gorgeous and very supportive since I’ve been on the show,” she said.
Delta was again full of praise for Celia, saying she was a true artist.
“You are really in your element up there,” Delta said.
“I am honoured that you are my finalist and I can’t wait to perform with you next week.”
Celia is the only girl in the grand final and is up against Luke Kennedy, Harrison Craig and Danny Ross.
The format for the grand final has not been released yet, however we do know that the four grand finalists will perform as a group and each contestant will sing a duet with their coaches.
“It is daunting being the only girl but I am excited,” Celia said.
“I am really looking forward to singing with Delta.”
This week Celia has an even busier schedule with more workshops, media interviews and iTunes recordings.
“I feel as though a weight has been lifted off my shoulders now that I have made it to the grand final though,” Celia said.
“All I wanted to do was my best in this show and I have achieved that and more.”
“If you want to see me win, make sure you keep voting,” Celia said.
“The support has just been amazing and I am so thankful to everyone who has voted but it’s not over yet.
“Now is the time to definitely make your vote count.”
