Britain’s Got Talent is the newest talent show offering by Simon Cowell. When it was launched a few years ago many people thought that it wouldn’t work because we already had X Factor and we didn’t need another talent show. However reality is that the show has taken off with epic proportions with many international stars being created. Contestants compete for a £100,000 prize and the chance to perform at the Royal Variety Show.

This years season has kicked off with a bang with many auditionee’s already hitting the headlines. This week’s show saw auditions kick off with the Chippendoubles. The group of look a likes caused a stir with their surprise audition.

Then we were blown away by Janey Cutler and her amazing singing voice. The 80 year old came on to stage shaky however had the audience on their feet by the end of her performance. That is without the fact that Susan Boyles 2^nd cousin auditioned and impressed the judges with her singing voice.

However the judges weren’t always able to agree on decisions as was shown by their reaction to dance troupe Myztikal. The dance troupe promised something different before their audition and they delivered. As well as smooth dance routines they had some amazing vocals on offer. However it was around half way there their audition that they were stopped because 2 of the singers weren’t up to scratch. The judges were unsure whether this was enough to ruin their chances. Thankfully they decided that constructive criticism was the way forward and they advised them to rethink the singing idea and gave them a chance to go through to the next round.

Auditions are being shown weekly on a Saturday night and so now we just have to wait and see what next week has to offer. As talent shows go, Britain’s Got Talent certainly offers up a variety of great (and not so great!) acts.
