She was a member of the Arts Youth Theatre during the late 1990s featuring in shows such as ''Ecstasy'' and ''Our Day Out''. She then went on to feature in Michael Poyners version of the Rockin Mikado as Katisha. She also featured as a contestant with sister Margaret on Michael Barrymore's ''My Kind of Music'' singing "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!". She also competed in the talent show ''Star for a Night'' making the final with her performance of "Kids".
Tucker trained at the Royal Academy of Music. She worked with ''Any Dream Will Do'' winner Lee Mead in the 2005 United Kingdom tour of the Rock musical, ''Tommy'' as Sally Simpson. In December 2007, Tucker appeared as Dorothy Gale in the Royal Shakespeare Company adaptation of ''The Wizard of Oz'' at the Lyric Theatre in Belfast. ''The Stage'' described her performance as "looking and sounding uncannily like the legendary Garland." For her performance, she was nominated for an award in the 2008 ''TMA Awards''.
