Amy Winehouse best friend auditions on The Voice

Amy Winehouse's best friend, Tyler James, has succesfully auditioned on BBC show The Voice.

Viewers of the hit talent show watched last night as James, who was regularly seen with the late Amy before her death in 2011, performed a 'blind' audition for coaches Will.i.am, Jessie J, Tom Jones and Danny O'Donoghue of The Script.

Speaking about Amy before he performed Otis Redding's 'Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay', James said: “Amy’s with me every day. She’s come to me in my dreams. Amy is happy now she’s with her nan. If her being happy means I can’t see her, so be it.”

You can see Tyler's audition, which convinced Will.i.am to turn around and recruit him to his team, below. Other succesful contestants on last night's episode of The Voice included Bo Buce and Jay Norton.
