Uganda’s Ghetto Kids break the Golden Buzzer record on Britain Got Talent
Ugandan Ghetto Kids made history at Britain’s Got talent show after receiving the Golden Buzzer in the middle of their performance.
Bruno Tonioli, a new judge on the show, pressed his gold buzzer mid-performance as the Kids showcased magical dance moves.
They were dancing to Mi Gente by J Balvin and WIlly William.
“I’ve to do it now,” Tonioli, an Italian choreographer said before pressing the buzzer.
The golden buzzer is pressed by a judge or host when they decide they want a particular audition to go straight through to the live shows.
It is usually pressed after the performance.
Simon Cowell, the creator of the Got Talent franchise, who was also on the judging panel, said “We’ve never had that before,”.
Tonioli interjected saying “I got it wrong!”
Cowell added; “That’s never actually happened… Normally the golden buzzer is pressed afterward… He gave you the golden buzzer and you performed with the confetti, it was magical.”
The manager of the Triplets Ghetto Kids dance group Dauda Kavuma a.k.a Teacher Teacher said they were in London for the first time.
“I just wanna say you’re absolute superstars every single one of you… What you are doing is absolutely incredible and we are honoured that you’ve come to Britain’s Got Talent,” Judge Alesha Dixon said.
The TV personality and author went on: “You’ve lit up the stage, and the energy in the room and joy is incredible. Thank you.”
Actress and singer Amanda Louise Holden said: “Your talent is unbelievable. And it felt to me like you really raised the bar on Britain’s Got Talent, so well done.”
Bruno Tonioli said: “I was literally exploding. I’m telling you. You should be proud of yourself. I can’t wait to see you back. That’s all I can say.”
Simon Cowell said: “I think it’s incredible that you are so young. You found all the way and no fear, this is an audition we gonna remember. And it was brilliant. That’s all the show is all about. And that’s what the golden buzzer is for.”
