  8. 8

    His voice will break so his lost



  9. 9

    Watched it but you should post the funny shit as well.



  10. 10

    wow, that was very good!!!



  11. 11

    Is this show for real?? It looks totally staged. First the fugly virgin now the little kid with a big voice. Its like a bad version of Showtime at the Apollo.



  12. 12

    hes cute :)



  13. 13

    Holy crap. Amazing. Better than half the kids on AI this season.



  14. 14

    you should show the darth vader/michael jackson bloke
    he was fucking hillariouuss



  15. 15

    This kid is only 12!! And I reckon he may be beating Susan as he's got the cute factor!



  16. 16

    Susan wins.



  17. 17

    Now THIS is talent. Not 'aunty at a wedding' Susan Boyle styleeeee. And for a 12 yr old now to buckle under the pressure Simon but him under asking him to change his song… WOW x



  18. 18

    i think he sings really well



  19. 19

    he is so freaking amazing love, love love him x



  20. 20

    This kid is already and actor in a kids program called 'grandpa in my pocket' also he was in the michael jackson tribute tour Thriller.
    such a shame. google shaheen jafargholi or thriller tour or grandpa in my pocket.
    It's such a shame, he's amazing would be better if he was 'undiscoverd though'! He's so cute, i hope the show isn't fixed :S
    x



  21. 21

    It's perfect.
    But did not touch my emotions at all!
    So perfection seems to be something else than beauty!



  22. 22

    a - m - a - z - i - n - g

    Britain Rules All!!



  23. 23

    I got goosebumps as well.



  24. 24

    wow he's AMAZING!!!
    having such a developed voice at a young age…
    he's way better than susan boyle



  25. 25

    gave me chills. awesome!



  26. 26

    He's Great!



  27. 27

    he's better than Susan Bolye, IMO.



  28. 28

    He reminds me of MINIPEREZ, or ERLEND BRATLAND
    google him



  29. 29

    Re: Girth InVader

    SHUT THE FUCK UP



  30. 30

    The change of songs seemed planned to add an element of sensation. Nonetheless, cute, but honestly must we really hear from every single human being on the planet who can sing. I mean good for them they can sing but this singing thing is getting old.



  31. 31

    To me he is better than susan.
    and he'll only get better with age!



  32. 32

    Incredible!



  33. 33

    He's only just turned 12 aswel! hes amazing



  34. 34

    Not only can that baby blow, but his dimples are to DIE for!!!



  35. 35

    when i saw this kid he took my breath away hes amazing!!!

  36. -liz- says – reply to this


    36

    He was good…but I didn't think he was the star of the show tonight, I really thought it was the saxophone player! And man was he hot too! Such a great show!
    Honestly I'd never even seen an episode until tonight, obv I've seen Susan Boyle all week, but until tonight had never seen an episode! They should be paying her considering she's brought a whole new fan base to the show.



  37. 37

    Wow this boy has an amazing voice! Better than Susan Boyle, in my opinion! Susan Boyle can sing really really well, but I think the fact that she's a 47 year old woman/virgin having had dreamt about this for a really long time adds to her appeal. But I guess you could say the same about Shaheen because he's just a boy and THAT adds to his appeal……… It's a tough call!!
    But I got goosebumps when he started singing, and I didn't get that from Susan Boyle!



  38. 38

    I wish he could play in my orange orchard and play with my poodle.



  39. 39

    He sings off key



  40. 40

    Cute AND talented! What more can ya ask for? Kudos!!!



  41. 41

    & he's a welsh boy!!!
    Cymru am byth!!! x



  42. 42

    It's beginning to look like Britain's got WAY more talent than the U.S., judging by our "reality" programming– :)



  43. 43

    WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT'S KIDS GOT TALENT. WHAT IS HE LIKE 10? FANTASTIC!!



  44. 44

    future pole smoker, perez knows how to spot em



  45. 45

    man, he is great



  46. 46

    OOOOOH, ELE TEM UMA COVA O_O



  47. 47

    …No emotion. At all.



  48. 48

    Britain definitely got TALENT
    WOW! they produced Leona Lewis, Susan Boyle and now this :/



  49. 49

    what's that sound? oh…michael jackson just pitched a tent…

  50. tilly says – reply to this


    50

    I watch Britain's got talent, America's got talent and Australia's got talent and even though Britain is a small little country we have way more talent.



  51. 51

    I really enjoyed watching that. Im not being awful to Susan Boyle, but I can't help but think people are treating her in this special way just because they were so shocked that an ulgy bird could sing so well!! Isnt that as bad as calling a girl whos pretty an airhead??? I think its all a bit patronising…



  52. 52

    he's better than her



  53. 53

    He's No Susan Boyle, but…the boy can sing. That said, I wish he would have kept singing the Valerie song because it is a kool song that even I sing with my band and I love it.
    But most importantly, the Jackson song is so overdone by so many kids that at the end of the day they all sound the same.



  54. 54

    Great voice/but jackson-5 song/do we really just want to eff' the boy up!



  55. 55

    He's amazing. It'll be hard to guess who'll win, but it will be between him and Susan, I bet.



  56. 56

    Awwww, he almost sounds like David Archuleta when he was his age. Great vocals!!!



  57. 57

    Susan Boyle > This 12 Year Old Kid

    TEAM BOYLE!



  58. 58

    That kid is great. I love how that show dubs in random audience reactions and cheering though. I am sure the audience reaction was exciting. It is actually quite comical then it is annoying.

    Tell me that entire song switch thing wasn't staged?



  59. 59

    dizamn.. kid has some skills



  60. 60

    i'm sorry but that has planned written all over it , its a little suspicious ! but he did have a good voice



  61. 61

    Britain's got way more talent than America, but who doesn't (I'm American, by the way). Why didn't Simon like the first song, I thought he was doing pretty well?!?



  62. 62

    cute kid and very talented.



  63. 63

    Fuck this



  64. 64

    That was a great perfomance. Anyone who doesn't think so,I'd like to see you do better



  65. 65

    great voice now, what will it be like after puberty… the voice will a change

  66. Wassy says – reply to this


    66

    I love how breaking free from high school musical was the background



  67. 67

    HE'S A CUTIE! YOU'RE NO SERIOUS JOURNALIST, BUT…



  68. 68

    He's got a good voice.



  69. 69

    He's the cutest :)
    It was so planned though..the whole "sudden" change of song!!
    I still love him though.
    I definately want him to win!!
    NOT Susan Boyle, although I'll admit, the woman can sing.
    But this kid is a star.



  70. 70

    Better than Susan Boyle!!!!!!



  71. 71

    Alright… how are there SO many idiots that don't realize this is staged?? Everything is so over-the-top and planned. Simon Cowell just wants people to think that Britain's Got Talent is so unbelievably amazing. IT'S BULL CRAP.



  72. 72

    Re: Bean-Queen – SUCK MY BIG BLACK INTERGALACTIC BALLS.



  73. 73

    Re: Bean-Queen – And get your teeth fixed. I bet they're rotten and crooked.



  74. 74

    hes better than her!!!



  75. 75

    How can the audience even hear him? STFU until he's fucking done, morons. I can't even hear him.



  76. 76

    WOW that boy is AMAZING!!! such a beautiful voice :)



  77. 77

    but honestly, I've met a lot of people who can sing and don't get recognized for it.
    He's whatever he's not AMAZING! but he not horrific either



  78. 78

    Why dont you attack me ya little chicken!! you must live in front of your computers just waiting for your informants!!



  79. 79

    He is better than Susan Boyle. He sings with more feeling.



  80. 80

    you know simon cowell may be "mean", but he sure as hell knows what works for a person and what doesnt. i love him. his "meaness" is just pure honesty. honesty sometimes hurts yes, but its a fact of life.

    Re: Sensitivity – Because you're really not that relevant.



  83. 83

    Re: brittanynic0le – You're absolutley right girl. Look at the video. The crowd, the hosts, the judges, and they got this kid from a Michael Jackson tribute tour. STAGED! but these idiots eat it up!



  84. 84

    What's with Britian and all this ridiculous amount of talent??? NONE of the winners of American idols are as good as Susan Boyle and this kid!



  85. 85

    The why are you talking to me!



  86. 86

    British talent is the best.



  87. 87

    IT'S AMAZING MY 1ST THREAD OF THE DAY AND BOOM SOMEONE SHOWS UP TO START CRAP! SOMEONE HAS BEEN ON THEIR COMPUTER ALL DAY STALKING PH! BAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAH

    Re: Sensitivity – Well slap my ass and call me Suzy! You have a potty mouth sir! Calm down and kiss me. With tongue.



  90. 90

    How come the blonde judge didn't get goosebumps from that Susan Boyle lady, and whats with Simon givin the kid the finger and that melodramatic music when the kid f'd up the song? STAGED



  91. 91

    Does this really pass for prime time viewing in the UK? When will the world stand up and say enough of this wall to wall reality shit with hyperventilating studio audiences?!?! No wonder all the decent scripted shows are gettin cancelled.



  92. 92

    HE WAS AMAZING TONIGHT!
    I WAS BLOWN AWAY



  93. 93

    THEY'RE BOTH GOOD IN THEIR OWN WAY!!



  94. 94

    Re: Sensitivity – because ya know ya want it



  95. 95

    THIS KID IS AMAZING. HE REALLY HIT THOSE NOTES LIKE LA MICHAEL YACKSON.

    I'm more into this kid than in Susan Boyle. I love Susan, pero she doesn't belong into the 21st century.

    And I'm more into BLUES. Brown loves Black!
