BGT’s act’s secret and very impressive experience revealed after they wow on show
A BRITAIN’S Got Talent act have already achieved major success before the show after impressing the judges on tonight’s programme.
Beatboxing group Sarukani immediately left the ITV panel wowed when they strutted onto the stage with an impromptu beatbox before even speaking to the judges.
Alesha Dixon was instantly left remarking that she was a big fan of beatboxing while Bruno Tonioli was geared up to see them perform.
Aged between 21 and 24, the group left the audience mesmerised with a unique act that saw them beatbox along to the theme tune of Ghostbusters.
However, hitting the BGT stage is not the first big stage or contest that they have stepped on.
The group have previously hit the big time at the Beatboxing World Champions.
Sarukani were crowned the winners of the contest in October of last year.
In a post to their Instagram page at the time, they shared the exciting news of their achievements.
The group said: “WE’RE WORLD CHAMPION!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!! WE LOVE BEATBOX!!!!!!!! @swissbeatbox @grand.beatbox.battle.”
It seems that they are hoping to add winning BGT to their winning chart after admitting that 2023 was a solidly succesful year for them.
They further wrote online last year before their BGT stint: “Thank you for all of your support this year, 2023! You’ve been so supportive to us and we’ve shared priceless experiences as a team.
“More than anything, this year we won the championship at the World Championship called ‘Grand Beatbox Battle 2023’.
Their performance skills have also seen them land A-list pals thanks to their impressive covers.
The group met superstar DJ Steve Aoki after creating a beatbox rendition of his hit, Boneless.
Elsewhere in the episode, fans were left utterly perplexed by a singing Batman act.
The Dark Hero, who didn’t reveal his true identity, belted out Defying Gravity and then started flying through the sky.
But those watching at home were quick to point out that Batman doesn’t actually fly – and he should have picked Superman.
One person remarked: “Wrong superhero for the song defying gravity. Should have been super man .lol.”
A second added: “But batman can’t fly? He should’ve dressed as superman, or an Astronaut.”
And a third said: “Bit pedantic but Batman can’t fly. Also he can sing better.”
Tonight’s opening sparked outrage as they replaced it with an ITV News intro before newscaster Charlene White appeared on-screen appearing to deliver breaking news to the nation.
However, it soon transpired to be an ill-timed stunt that saw the judges being hounded in a fake press conference made up of children.
