Most girls of her age would be playing games with their friends or practising things they have learnt in school. She is called the Karate Kid.
But not nine-year-old Jesse Jane McParland, who prefers playing with swords.
Despite her young age, Miss McParland is already a world champion kick boxer, with an astonishing 117 martial arts titles under her belt. More photos after the cut...
Her first movie Martial Arts Kid, also starring Cynthia Rothrock and Don ‘The Dragon’ Wilson, will be released this year, and in July she will start filming a film called Awakening with teen heartthrob Zac Efron.
Now she is hoping to add Britain’s Got Talent winner to her trophy collection after impressing the judges and audience with her incredible sword-wielding audition.
You wouldn’t guess it coming from the slight, blonde-hair girl, who appeared on the BGT stage to a chorus of ‘ah’s from the audience on Saturday night.
She told the judging panel she was there with ‘my daddy’ Gary, 36, – prompting more coos – because ‘my mummy’s at home looking after my two younger sisters’.
