81 - Samira Mighty: Building Your Craft, Villa Life & Stage Ambitions

A Love Island legend, West End powerhouse, pop girly and a woman with more talents than should reasonably be allowed... Samira Mighty is our guest on this episode of The Final FronTia!

From ballet school prodigy to West End performer, reality-TV icon to fast-emerging recording artist, Samira has lived about six lives already... and she’s still only getting started. Her latest single "Cardio" is out now.

On this episode of The Final FronTia, Tia and Samira talk about unbelievable dance training, navigating the pressures of the performing arts world, dream musical theatre roles (including some very iconic castings they manifest right on the spot) and the realities of being a Black woman in industries that weren’t built with you in mind.

They also get into reality TV chaos - from classic Love Island to the golden age of Made in Chelsea - plus TikTok virality and whether she could really still play a troubled teenager on Waterloo Road (answer: yes, obviously).

And stay to the end for a game of Music or Musical where Samira proves she might secretly be the nation’s next Mastermind champion!
