"Paula, you are the best Shirley Bassey I have ever met. What an incredible DSB voice and likeness to Dame Shirley, your power and intonation are superb! You've definitely 'mastered' Dame Shirley, she would be proud of you!"

-Nikki Lamborn. Dame Shirley Bassey's Writer/Record Producer of her most recent re-mix Album, DSB Get The Party Started and close personal friend. During a 'session' at Dean Street Recording Studios, London. 4th Nov 08.

"Your performance was amazing. Opening with Get The Party Started, you certainly did that. When you emerged from back stage wearing the authentic costume we thought you were miming to Shirley's record! Absolutely fantastic, all the mannerisms and class of Shirley Bassey. Thank you so much for getting our launch party started, nothing was too much trouble for you. You are such a professional!
