BGT 2024 star Innocent ‘one to beat’

After his powerhouse performance, Innocent received a standing ovation from the judges and audience. Judge Alesha Dixon proclaimed: “How do I sum it up? You’re the one to beat.”

Meanwhile, Amanda also added: “What’s amazing is how slight you are and I never see you take a breath then you do those notes that last forever. I think Alesha’s right, you’re the one to beat tonight.”

While Simon said: “We felt how much this means to you. You deserve this opportunity because you are incredibly talented.”
