New Zealand's Got Talent edit
Hillel auditioned for New Zealand's Got Talent series 2 at the age of 10. Her rendition of "Pie Jesu" earned the praise from judges, with Rachel Hunter commenting "You are absolutely stunning."[4] She advanced to the semi-finals and her performance of "O Mio Babbino Caro" earned her a spot in the grand finals on judges' vote.[6][7] Hillel performed Schubert's version of "Ave Maria" in the finals and ultimately placed second through public vote.[8][9] "You are mesmerizing, you are enchanting, what you do is enduring" said Jason Kerrison of Hillel's performance in the finals.[citation needed]
Following her success on the show, she performed in shows both in New Zealand and overseas.[10] In 2012, Hillel was invited to Beijing to appear on International Children's Music Festival and her performance of Memory was broadcast by CCTV-1 on New Years Eve.[4][11][12][13]
