Britain’s Got Talent 2023: Who made it to the 2nd semi-final?

Viggo Venn was the first act to be told they would move straight into the finals later in the week after their energetic performance of “My Name Is” and hi-vis jacket dance won the public vote.

The second appearance that evening (May 30) was 11-year-old singer Olivia Lynes, who won the jury’s choice with her cover of the Frozen classic “Into the Unknown”.

She was also Amanda Holden’s golden buzzer during the casting stages early on in the series.

Who made it into Monday’s Britain’s Got Talent semi-finals?

dancer Musa Motha was the first act of the talent contest, earning a gold “group” buzzer during the final casting episode from Simon Cowell, Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden and newest judge Bruno Tonioli BGT on Saturday (May 27).

The 27-year-old was voted last night by the public for the final after creating a phenomenal dance routine using a crutch after previously announcing he had had a leg amputated due to cancer at a young age.

Meanwhile, two artists had to compete for second place, with the jury having to choose between singer Amy Lou or Abi Carter’s modern fairy tale version.

Both had two votes each from the four judges, meaning it was again a public vote.
