Britain’s Got Talent winner ‘revealed’ as fans spot huge clues act will triumph in the final
BRITAIN’S Got Talent winner is “revealed” after fans spot huge clues that the act will triumph in the final.
Tomorrow night a brand new BGT champ will be crowned, after beating thousands of hopefuls to scoop the crown.
The star-studded panel of judges, which is made up of Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli, have selected their semi-finalists and now it’s up to the public to pick a winner.
However, it appears that fans already know who is going to scoop the BGT crown.
Viewers’ have been busy discussing one particular act they are predicting will win the show.
Taking to Reddit, one fan wrote: “Innocent Masuku – Clearly the favourite the win out of all the finalists and myself included am rooting for him.
“I feel even the judges are certain he’s going to take the crown as I believe he would be a phenomenal winner as that’s a gift he has.”
Another added: “Is it just me that thinks Innocent is going to win?”
This BGT fan agreed: “I have a feeling it’s going to come down to either Jack Rhodes or Innocent Masuku for the win as I feel they’be been getting the winners edit the most after their respective SF performance.”
Ever since his first audition, Innocent Massuku has been strongly tipped to be the next BGT winner.
The opera singer won a place in tomorrow’s final after impressing the judges and viewers in the semi-finals.
Performing Hans Zimmer’s Now We Are Free during heat one of the semi-finals, the singer wowed so much that he won the viewers’ vote.
Asked how he felt, he said it was “amazing” and “so special”.
It comes after viewers last night questioned whether head judge Simon Cowell had a “total personality transplant” after observing his noticeably less scathing feedback.
The music mogul came known around the world for his harsh criticisms on competition shows including The X Factor, American Idol and earlier, Pop Idol.
He has also judged on his creation, Britain’s Got Talent since the show began in 2007 although fans have noted his less severe comments in recent years.
In particular, BGT viewers flocked to X, formerly Twitter, after singer Gambino Akuboy took to the stage in Friday’s semi-final.
Gambino, 38, kicked off the live show with an upbeat song centred around celebrating the weekend after a busy working week.
His efforts impressed Simon, who told Gambino: “Part of doing well on this show is being likeable and you are so likeable.
“That song is so catchy and you know what, anything can happen on this show.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if the audience back you tonight to make it into the top three.
“Seriously, I just love everything about you and that performance.
Fans watching at home weren’t as enthusiastic, with one writing: “I’d hire Gambino as a crowd warm up but that’s all. I never saw his audition and cannot believe he’s in the semi finals.”
Another queried: “Has Simon Cowell had a total personality transplant?”
A third added: “Simon is very wrong I shall not be backing him absolutely not.”
‘IT’S A FIX’
Meanwhile, there was plenty of action last with fans again calling BGT a “fix”.
Comedian Alex Mitchell was put straight through to Sunday’s final while the judges were left choosing between Trixy and blind musicians Denise and Stefan.
Bruno Toniol was first up and he chose to save Denise and Stefan.
Alesha Dixon was next and described it as a “nightmare”.
She eventually settled on Trixy, as did Amanda Holden and Simon.
But some fans found themselves scratching their heads over a comment Alesha made as she cast her vote.
Alesha had said she was picking Trixy to ‘balance out’ the votes after Bruno had chosen Alex.
This then made it easy for Amanda and Simon to ensure he went through to the final by each voting for him, which gave him a majority.
One fan has posted a gif reading ‘It was fixed!’ and alongside it wrote: “Alesha said ‘I’m going to balance it out and pick Trixy’ and then the last two pick Trixy.”
Friday’s semi-final also featured The Dark Hero, The Messoudi Brothers, Cyberagent Legit, Amasing, Trixy, Alex Mitchell and Denise & Stefan.
Britain’s Got Talent final airs on ITV tomorrow at 7.30pm
