Claim: Jayde Adams began stand-up comedy in 2011 before their nomination as wildcard in 2012.
Evidence: Adams started performing stand-up comedy in 2011, following the premature death from an inoperable brain tumour of her sister Jenna, with whom she had danced competitively for 13 years at her aunt's dance school in Bristol. In 2012 she was nominated by Time Out magazine as their wildcard for The Hospital Club, London list of "Most Influential Person in the Arts".
