If you watch the show then you'd see the acts that get through to the final usually are very talented, although I'll admit the judges do bring a few turkeys into the semis in lieu of decent talent. I mean, I can think of a fair few acts I wanted in the semis who were much better than the likes of Nick Hell, Darth Jackson, and so on. That said, I kind of wish there could be more than one winner, why can't all ten finalists be in the Royal Variety performance? They've already proved their talent up until nowNoMoreSanity said:
You missed out, there was a fair bit of drama last night. Hollie Steel, the ballerina and singer from the auditions, she made a slight mistake in the semi-final and had a nervous breakdown on stage. The producers said she couldn't start again because there wasn't time, but the judges comforted her and Simon twisted the arm of the producers during the break to give her a second chance. She managed to get through in second place when the judges unanimously voted her in the results partsky14kemea said:

I don't know about that, there've been some pretty good people through this year aside from Susan. There's just all the hype because Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher are fans of her. However, I think this year it'll be a much closer contest than last year or the year before. Definitely going to be too close to call now.sorry user name taken. said:
Well, he did only get through in last night's semis, so he wouldn't have time to choreograph anything new. George Sampson used the same act in last year's finals as he did in the semis and still won, so I suppose he still has a decent chanceDrasur said:
I don't agree there. True, the grandad, John, doesn't have the best voice in the world, but the two of them obviously love each other and sing well together. He's by no means holding her back. She has the most amazing voice though, definitely. It sounds cruel but given the grandad's age he doesn't have the time for a career, so if they were to take this further, win or lose, he wouldn't be able to support her for long as a singing duet. However, she doesn't need the support, the girl (Sally) has such a beautiful voice she'll end up being a big star in the next few years. I gurantee it. Simon will definitely want to sign her to his record label, bet on that.D0WNT0WN said:
Well, everyone's entitled to their own opinion, as the guy from Diversity said, and as I always say. However, I thought it was a pretty damn good performance, and as Simon said, if the kids have talent then why should we deny them the chance to show it and to take part? After all, kids watch this show, and kids watch the Royal Variety Performance, why not let the kids take part themselves if they have the courage and the talent to do so?RAKtheUndead said:I didn't like her performance at all. I didn't see her breakdown last night, and the show happened to be on in the house tonight, but I thought it was pretentious, and I hate the way she got through despite her little cryathon, which probably shows you what I think of these children going through on their own.Trivun said:Hollie Steel, the one who broke down on stage yesterday, just performed now. After hearing it, I have to say, one of two things will happen. Either Simon Cowell will sign her to his record label, or Andrew Lloyd Webber will wait ten years then give her a part in one of his musicals. That should tell you how good it was
EDIT: Sorry for the double post...
Anyway, we all think she's a pretentious little brat on this side of the screen.
