Liverpool talent was front and centre on Saturday night as dancers from Liverpool Media Academy (LMA) lit up Britain’s Got Talent and landed a golden buzzer moment that’s sent them straight through to the final.
The 66-strong group, performing as Sadeck Berrabah & LMA, delivered a jaw-dropping, perfectly synchronised routine that had the judges on their feet and it was Alesha Dixon who sealed the deal.
After previously saying she would’ve hit the golden buzzer for them at auditions, Alesha didn’t hesitate this time, calling the Liverpool group a “breath of fresh air” before smashing the buzzer and sending them straight through.
Fellow judge Simon Cowell was just as blown away, describing the performance as “gobsmackingly beautiful” and one of the best acts seen on the live shows so far.
The result means the Liverpool dancers skip the public vote and go straight to the grand final, where they’ll be in with a chance of performing at the Royal Variety Performance and taking home the show’s top prize.
