George Sampson – THEN
And the winner is…the kid who didn’t even know he was auditioning for Britain’s Got Talent in 2007 until he got to the studio!
Bet George was glad he took his dance teacher’s advice when he did because Simon was a big fan from day one. Unfortunately, Amanda and Piers weren’t convinced and George didn’t go through to the semi-finals.
That didn’t deter him though and he auditioned the year after, only to win the show!
After winning Britain’s Got Talent, George made his West End debut in a hip-hop musical. He’s promoted phones, guest-starred on the very show that shot him to fame, starred in 3D musical films and even bagged a recurring role on Emmerdale. Suffice to say, he’s doing well!
