Britain's Got Talent fans outraged as KSI awards Golden Buzzer to 'wrong' act

KSI was given a second Golden Buzzer in a surprise twist on Saturday night

Britain's Got Talent fans were delighted to see the return of KSI to the show, with the YouTuber joining the judging panel alongside Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli.

However, his decision to hit the Golden Buzzer for magician Harry Moulding sparked controversy among viewers.

Moulding's performance was not just an act but also a platform for a touching marriage proposal to a member of the audience, leading her betrothed to surprise both the judges and spectators with a dramatic engagement plea.

KSI wasted no time and sent Harry straight through to the finals with a press of the Golden Buzzer. Yet the spotlight soon shifted to nine year old dance sensation Binita Chetry, whose stunning routine captivated the nation, reports the Express.

One agitated viewer complained about KSI selecting the magician over Binita, posting: "Really p****s me off that KSI would use his golden buzzer on a TALENTLESS completely staged act instead of on a 9 year old girl with a genuine gift #bgt."

Another chimed in with disappointment, saying: "Congrats KSI on wasting your golden buzzer on a s*** staged magician when that talented girl is RIGHT THERE #bgt."

Further expressing frustration, another fan claimed: "BGT magician Harry Moulding getting the golden buzzer in the semi-finals is why I'm not watching #BGT next year. I've watched every year, and this is the first year I've been actively p****d off."

In contrast, some viewers stood by KSI's choice, with one praising: "By a mile the best and most deserving golden buzzer this year."

One fan exclaimed: "HARRY GOULDING YOU HAVE A GOD GIVEN TALENT IN MAGIC. How the hell Harry did that in the last 48 hours is mental glad KSI gave him the golden buzzer!"

Britain's Got Talent airs on Saturday nights from 7pm on ITV and ITVX
