Who are Britain’s Got Talent 2024’s golden buzzer acts?
It was the last of the Britain’s Got Talent auditions over the weekend, and plenty of rules were broken when it came to the coveted golden buzzers.
The judges have used their golden buzzers more than once over the course of the season, which for many has been a delight.
But there was one act who the audience desperately wanted to received a golden buzzer, but there were none left! So, what happened?As is the case each year, the winner of the season will walk away with a life-changing £250,000 and will perform at the Royal Variety Performance – so the pressure really is on for all of the acts to make their mark.
But who are the golden buzzer acts on Britain’s Got Talent 2024? Here are the contestants who have been revealed so far.Taryn Charles dazzled the audience and judges during her audition, choosing to sing her own rendition of Aretha Franklin’s iconic song (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman. The special educational needs teacher said she wanted to audition because she loves to “make people smile” and she certainly did.
The teacher revealed that one of her students had come to support her and after being given the golden buzzer, they joined her on stage to congratulate her along with Bruno Tonioli.Tonioli said of her performance: “You made me forget about [Aretha Franklin’s] version. You made it so much your own, with so much feeling, and the colour of your voice is unique and you’re a very, very special person my darling.”
Head judge Simon Cowell said he could tell Taryn was nervous because someone must have told her she wasn’t good enough in the past, which she admitted was true.
Cowell said: “Boy, did you prove that person wrong and that is what that golden buzzer is all about, you are a little star.”
CyberAgent LegitFuturistic dance troupe CyberAgent Legit took to the stage wearing coordinated red and silver outfits, and blew the judges and the audience away.
All four judges gave them a standing ovation, and Simon even seemed somewhat lost for words.
He said after the performance: “Amazing, fantastic. That was my favourite act of the day, actually. Really, really good, wow.”
The audience started chanting for Simon to press the Golden Buzzer and as Bruno started giving his verdict, Simon reached across and did just that, securing CyberAgent Legit’s place in the semi-finals.
Simon went up on stage to congratulate them, saying: “The energy from the audience was just fantastic. I’m so happy for you.”
He added later: “I could see how much time had gone into that. Everyone in this theatre was rooting for you.”
Sydnie ChristmasThe judges were originally unsure about Sydnie’s performance when she revealed she would be singing Tomorrow from Annie, with Simon admitting it was his least favourite song, but they were soon blown away.
Her rendition had the audience up on their feet giving her a standing ovation, along with the whole judging panel – even Simon!
Before pressing the golden buzzer, Amanda told Sydnie: “That was the best version I have ever heard in my life so that’s why I’m gonna do this!”
As for why she pressed the golden buzzer, Amanda told RadioTimes.com and other press: “What beautiful girl! For me, to have the sort of vibes of Adele in that she had that sort of humble, that sense of humour. I said to Simon, ‘She was a clown.’ But you could see it meant so much to her on the day.”
As Amanda went to give her a hug, Sydnie said: “Thank you for this opportunity.”
Ssaulabi Taekwondo TroupeHailing from South Korea is the Ssaulabi Taekwondo Troupe, who impressed the judges and audience alike with their stunt-filled performance.
The group want to the be the first Taekwondo troupe to win Britain’s Got Talent, and Ant and Dec’s golden buzzer pushed them closer to that chance!
As their performance came to an end, the audience and judges were up on their feet and soon, Ant and Dec made their way down and hit the golden buzzer.
