Singing schoolboy Shaheen Jafagholi who performed on last nights Britain’s Got Talent Semi Final was chosen to join other finalists like Susan Boyle, Stavros Flatley, Diversity & Flawless last night after an outstanding performance of “And I Am Telling You” from the musical Dreamgirls.

Although he didn’t win the public vote, he was saved by Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan, whilst Simon Cowell chose the 25-strong dance group named MD Showgroup. So he got two votes to one meaning he goes through to the Britains Got Talent Final this Saturday.

Piers called the performance “breathtaking“. He added: “I think pound for pound that is the best singing performance we heard in the semi-final.“

Simon told him: “That is a really, really tough iconic song and I was incredibly nervous watching you, but it worked.” He added: “You are a real contender to win the competition.“

Bursting into tears after he’d been voted into the final, Shaheen, of Swansea, said: “It is so hard, because I have been great friends (with MD Showgroup) in the past week.“
