Britain’s Got Talent Semi-Finals Recap
Second Semi-Final Results
Following the second epic semi-final of the week, we have the second two Britain’s Got Talent finalists. Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, and Bruno Tonioli returned to their judging duties tonight as eight acts took to the stage, all hoping to win over the public.
Top Three Acts
- Ravi’s Dream Team
- Genevieve Cote
- Lady Grenades
- Matteo Fraziano
- Ace Clvrk
- Jack Rhodes
- Blitzers
- Haribow
The top three of the evening were double dutch group Haribow, magician Jack Rhodes, and brain cancer awareness singing group Ravi’s Dream Team. However, only two acts could go through to the finals, leaving the judges with a difficult decision to make.
Finalists
After a split vote, Simon went to the public vote and revealed that Haribow and Jack Rhodes were selected to go to the final. They join the two acts selected from the first night of semi-finals, Innocent Masuku and Ssaulabi Performance Troupe, and will now compete for the £250,000 prize and a spot at the Royal Variety Performance.
Upcoming Semi-Finals
This means the four finalists set to compete in the final so far are Jack Rhodes, Haribow, Innocent Masuku, and Ssaulabi Performance Troupe. Four more acts will be selected to compete over the next two semi-finals.
First Semi-Final Recap
- Sven Smith
- The Trickstars
- Trey Braine
- Sslaubi Performance Troupe
- Taryn Charles
- Bikoon
- Stardust
- Innocent Masuku
Opera singing powerhouse Innocent received the most votes from the public on night one, sending him straight through after an incredible closing performance. Meanwhile, dog act The Trickstars and martial arts stars Sslaubi Performance Troupe found themselves in the top 3, meaning the judges had the power to choose who went through.
Judges’ Comments
Despite the panel heaping praise on both acts, it ended up being a clean sweep, as all four voted in favour of Ssaulabi Performance Troupe.
Highlights and Performances
South Korean taekwondo group Sslaubi were Ant and Dec’s Golden Buzzer act, and they trained five hours a day ahead of the live semi-final. It paid off, though, as the panel described their performance as ‘a cinematic blockbuster.’
Final Thoughts
The Britain’s Got Talent live semi-finals will air each day until Friday at 8pm, with Sunday’s final at 7.30pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
