BRITAIN’S Got Talent has welcomed a fresh batch of contestants that hope their audition earns them the golden buzzer.
When the button is pressed, the act automatically secures a place in the live semi-finals. Take a look here at who has received it so far.
American singer Loren Allred was granted the first golden buzzer of the series.
Judge Amanda Holden was left “shaking” when she pressed the golden buzzer for the 32-year-old singer after her incredible performance.
Allred gave a breathtaking performance of the song Never Enough from the Greatest Showman soundtrack.

Once the downpour of confetti finished from the buzzer, Amanda said: “I am absolutely shaking. I can’t believe I’ve had this incredible opportunity to give you your moment to shine, because this is it.”
Fans were shocked to discover that Loren was the voice behind Jenny Lind’s song Never Enough which features in the 2017 movie musical of The Greatest Showman.
Despite initially enjoying a life away from the spotlight, she told the judges that it’s now her time to shine.
Comedian Axel Blake impressed the judges with his hilarious comedy sketch.
He made jokes about the Tube, the pandemic and contactless cards.
Judge Simon Cowell was so impressed with his performance that he decided to give him the golden buzzer.
He said the competition “needed acts like him’” after a difficult couple of years in the pandemic.
Fellow judge David Walliams described the sketch as “brilliantly funny and original”.
“A comedy superstar is born tonight. You made it all seem so effortless and you’ve got a wonderful, so likeable personality,” he said.
Axel’s performance went down a treat for most viewers, until they came to discover that he had been performing as a stand-up comedian for some time, and even has his own Amazon Prime Video.
One person tweeted: “Another professional with a golden buzzer. And an agent.”
Each season the judges and presenters have one opportunity to press the golden buzzer.
This means the act will skip straight through to the live semi-finals, which gives them a competitive advantage.
