Voting Results - BGT 2009 Semi-final #5

[gorillaz220]

Fucking bitch mother standing there, how would the judges send greg through when that cow is standing there? ughhhh

[englishfox1]

greg should have gone to the final he was just better no respect to hollie but she just wasent better than greg ive seen younger kids than her on the stage in the auditions or on the live shows and they didnt cry and they had nerves to. and she didnt even cry brilliant actor, okay singer

[sslaw6]

acting!!!! i hate her

[ThePrinceroycelover]

i love aidan davis!!

[littleliondog]

aidan looks so cute in this :)

[Darkstripe34]

im not saying hollie isn't talented but i really think that greg should be in the final because both piers and amanda's reasons for putting hollie through to the final is because of her bravery. greg is the real talent because he has something that other contestants doesn't have; his voice

[zzantitos]

i can not watch the video

[SpiritmanProductions]

Why?

[MinPinGirl97]

6:44-6:51 lol

[kagomekr]

i think that hollie did great, but i think that at least one judge should have voted for george.

[jaradoref]

You mean Greg.

[MrWeatherdude1984]

Those haters picking on Hollie like if she were a BLOODY CRIMINAL. 1. Wikipedia results.

Aidan 50.6%

Hollie 26.0&

Greg & the rest 23.4%

2. Hollie's 1 of 3 females in the final, which probobly would have been an issue on way too many males, so the judges knew who they were picking. 3. Hollie & Aidan were much more presentable then Greg. 4. Hollie gave a much better performance & is naturally talented. I'm not picking on Greg after all it's through talent, i thought he was good too.

[Lars560]

BGT 2009 judges are the best.

[poppytoppyHSM]

GRRRRR! faker hollie! greg shd of got thru!

[nononononone]

stop bein so mean to hollie,

she did wel

she shouldhv gon thru

meaniebobs

[Emmure700]

Greg is a million fuckin times better then hollie.

[LordVoldemortikillu]

also, hollie was kinda fake i think, btw this is just my oppinion

[LordVoldemortikillu]

i dont know if this right or not, but i heard tht greg gt 21% and hollie got like 14%. i thought tht greg should have gone through.

[Eth1994]

The voting for Aidan Davis was 50.6% and Hollie Steel got 26%, so Greg Pritchard couldn't have gotten any more than 23.4%.

So Hollie and Aidan were the rightful winners!! YAY!! ^__^

[CaioLoL]

judges felt pity for hollie =(

[Devirucha]

Final result's show please !!

[SpiritmanProductions]

It's here: v=vM05JYmqh8A

[hypamaniac]

Hollie no way should've gotten through it was just because she cried. What a drama queen. greg so should've gone through.

[IFireFlame]

Aww i do i feel sorry for Greg but i did like Hollies performance better.

[AuntThebe]

Simon's such a jerk. He didn't even aknowledge Greg at the end. He doesn't like him for whatever reason. I don't think it's a homophobe thing because he was 100% behind AI's Lambert.

I'm sorry but there a millions of little girls who sing just as good, if not better than Hollie. I just see her as so average ... not a protogee by any means.

[SpiritmanProductions]

Voting percentages:

Aidan Davis 50.6%

Hollie Steel 26.0%

[xxelinherexx]

what about gregg?? please i really want to know who would have gone thru if it werent for the judges decisions!!!

[SpiritmanProductions]

Don't quote me on this but apparently some figures leaked to The Sun show Greg got 18%. But you shouldn't believe everything you read in the papers. ;)

[xxelinherexx]

thank you!!!!!

[Totalgirl78]

what channel is this show on?

[SpiritmanProductions]

@ Totalgirl78

Was on ITV1 (repeated on ITV2) but it's finished for this year.

[FreeWords1]

Can she just stop cryin?? xD

[MCRfaneddie]

i do feel for Hollie and i could see that she was really nervous and she is really talented, but my question is whether she would have got through if she hadn't gotten nervous? all the judges said that the reason they were putting her through was her bravery, not her talent. i am backing Greg on this one. her mum seemed pushy as well, maybe her mum wants it more than her.

[babygirlie21]

The whole hollie thing was staged and a ploy, no doubt about it. At one point there was even no tears at all! Didnt get her much further though thank god cos she wernt all that good anyway. Am suprised she didnt burst out crying at the final as well.

[sejaoi2]

she just broke down on tears, but she didn't plan to do it, i'm sure. it wasn't even sure that she would get another chance so... and i think hollie's got massive talent. she's superduper talented 10 years old! gregs just a guy from somewhere with a ridiculous voice which is extreamly high.

[koolsuper16]

0:42

[fernanvanet17]

hollie-do your best

[Doitchampions]

Those sad people who have left horrid comments about this on all of the versions of holly's break down on youtube should be ashamed.

& i bet not one of the other acts begrudged her the second opportunity.

To those who say it wouldn't be done for an adult....HELLO - she's not a bloody adult she is a ten year old who let nerves get to her - but to come on & do try again & to get it right is such a brave thing to do. some idiots need to think on that FACT a little.

[ilovelibertyTYC]

what's the first song?

[CleverHairLeftMyStup]

oh, stupid crying Hollie... 3x NO from me! Greg was better!

[marc20303]

the most rediculous thing ever Holly NO NO NO

[Eatface3]

Greg u look so sweet when u smile....

[bassiom]

he's gay obviously

[noneck1000]

i think it was adorable i might be going on there so dont cheak it brought me to tears it was a good proformense

[jamesmagmar126]

I can't believe that brat Holly blubbing her way through and being given a second chance. She was a waste of a slot in the finals! She should have just had one go like everyone else.

[Lehnerd57]

Those dancers showed there bare buttocks on tv and they not flag coverd.....i guess better lookin then the lady who strip dancer

[iinespuig]

m0 ha agradat moltissim pero estava molt nervios i li ha sortit malament , ell es molt simpatic i ho fa molt be

[KelsieSmelsie]

Greg yuu are absolutely amazing

Hollie i hope i never hear or see yuu again

[sibkris]

bah... go on Greg, you won in my book.... too bad I don't count :P

[werehog28]

bitch!!!

my favorite:

1. Shaun Smith

2. Aidan Davis

3. Julian Smith

[KelsieSmelsie]

HOLLY IS A SPOILT LITTLE BRAT!

Greg Is Amazing He Should Have Been In The Final! He Was Robbed Because Of A Pathetic Spoilt Child! Greg <3

[werehog28]

yeah!!! greg can do everything hollie can and do even more and even better!!!

[elfava777]

Totaly agree she is a brat. Greg is the best!!!

[Mimm42]

So the finalists of Britain's "Variety" show are A singer, a dance group, a dance group, a singer, a singer, a comedy dance group, a dancer and a singer? Wow.... real variety in there.

[werehog28]

hahahahaha!!!

[XtremeXperts]

FUCK U HOLLY

[joluap211936civil]

bien hollyyyyyyyyy

[8991989]

greg should have got through. holly got the sympathy vote. she should not have entered at the age of 10 where she cannot compose herself. the judges are so fake.

[Neppybutt]

I certainly agree, they should have a minimum age requirement, no one under 12. Holly is a basketcase, and the way they treated her..... pathetic.

[XtremeXperts]

stfu fagg

[Neppybutt]

You're comment above must have required a lot of thought. Interesting to see why you disagreed? Let me stoop to your fucking low-life level by saying I am one of many in agreement that you are a half-wit brain dead (nothing of interest to say to others) piece of shit!!!! You are one of many lemmings that if someone told the bunch of you to stick your head up your ass and jump, just to be one of the group you would do it. Piss off, wanker!

[TCJacko]

To be honest, I don't think all three judges would have put Hollie through if it wasn't for the tears, and her mum coming on stage.

You could see Greg looking on anxiously at the weeping Hollie, cuddling tightly to her mum. He knew he wasn't going through right from when Hollie's mum stepped foot on that stage.

[Neppybutt]

TCJ, Yeah, I agree. I hope they put some kind of age restrictions or maturity criteria on the young contestants. Hollie and Aidan were not mature enough, however Shaheen held his own. I hope Craig has a career based upon his performances.

The judges do suck!!! lol But they are stuck in some weird situations based upon the voters decision.

[SpiritmanProductions]

@ Neppybutt

Aidan not mature enough? Are you kidding? He was one of the most composed, confident, and natural performers in the entire show. Receiving the public vote to win his semi-final is testament enough to his maturity, wouldn't you say? ;)

[pathaway94]

hollie steel diserves to win shes amazing! shes cute and she has a big voice! soo whats really wrong with u guys leave her alone she deserves to be in the final

[8991989]

what is wrong with you? everyone is entiltled to their opinion. Based on that night's performance Hollie screwed up she shouldn't be given a second chance simply because it isn't fair to the others. Furthermore who on earth would be proud of themselves by getting through the way she did? The adults are to blame they are giving her FALSE HOPE!

[nabzta]

greg should have gone through....lets all cry and get our way!!

[bm2g]

sympathy vote

[techphreek]

Hollie does have a better voice, but they both were off key at times. I think Hollie was given preferential treatment because of all the drama, though. Poor Greg didn't stand a chance and may have gone through if he hadn't been up against that drama.

[feedmebug]

It's all well and good going, 'Aww bless her, she did well'. Yeh alright, fine, she sang lovely. But if she breaks down infront of the Queen on one of the most watched variety performances in the world, there'll be uproar. At the end of the day, everything aside, she's ten years old. She's too young. End of.

[aliss120198]

now no offence 2 hollie but she wasn't very good greg sooooo should'nt have been oofed off she only went through because she "broke down"

[momo2811]

Simon used to talk to Connie Talbot, season 1, that he had talked to her like an adult. What is the point he treated Hollie like a crying baby. May the other contestants have 2nd attempt? If they feel their performance weren't satisfied because of pressure and crying during their performance. Jamie, Natalie, Callum, and Greg should cry in front of the judges to have the 2nd attempt. Pls treat them fair. Simon should not give her the 2nd attempt and ask her come back next year.

[44ryan182]

i dont know, hollie was good, she has a great voice and i do believe she broke down, but her mum coming on at the end wasnt needed. when will they realise that having no minimum age limit isnt a good idea? even if the kids were better than the other contenders,there will still always be people saying they only got through because of the ''aww'' factor. this must play on the minds of the losing contestants aswell

[txstoryteller]

I am glad the little popper and Hollie made it through; Hollie may have screwed up, but she tried her best! LEAVE THE KIDS ALONE!!!!!! FIVE stars! And I wholeartedly agree with JessikahMate!

[shahsmid]

I think Greg Pritchard should have gone thru ,he is really good.All the finalists surely deserve to be in the final except for Hollie who i think got thru through the judges sympathy.Wonder if she will start crying in front of the queen.There are so many other better contestants in the final and i think her time will come to and end finally.

[JessikahMate]

LEAVE HOLLIE ALONE.

think about it.

how would you feel if it was your sister or little girl standing there?

or even try and picture yourselves up there.

yes greg was amazing. But think about how hollies mother will feel if she sees all of these comments.

SHE DESERVED IT NOW GIVE HER A BREAK.

[bestever11]

i hope susan boyle wins.

[IdoubtIt1212]

Greg is awesome. I'm really disappointed.

[kid23467]

there is no way hollie is going to win the show poor thing

[TokyoPeach]

Oh ffs, I just want to stab all of the judges - they are such ultimate twats. HS can't even sing that well - she just has the 'cute' factor, as soon as she grows up she will just fade into the background. Gregg is far more of a rare talent and I hope he gets nurtured by some other record company.

[luch987]

the kids have takin over

[vertycool]

she actually amde me swear at the tv...her fucking disgrace of a mother then stands next to her..so greg never stood a chance..i cant beleive piers morgan, ex newspaper editor could not see through that act to get her through..the rest of u all say she had happy tears...look at aidan, that tears due to work effort and happiness,

[scoliy]

i think hollie and the good evans should go thru not aiden

[gulwant]

gay holli sucks i mean gtfo !

[khokuaa]

u know dats exactly what i think too. This is a talent show..n now they r encouraging a pretentious n sniveling kid n her mom to get n advantage just bcause she put up a 'I am such a scared little brave girl' act...poohh

[rihrih5876]

she cried, so people could feel sorry 4 her

[A1exx]

fucking joke..

[LauraWyOui]

Aiden Davies totally deserved to go through with that performance. Holly on the other hand did not. I know people are saying it's not fair to say that she emotionally got her way through, but she did!!!! The judges have always harped on about treating every contestant as adults and equal, but Holly's "emotional breakdown" that resembled more a typical tantrum (**physically stamping her feet when she was told that she wouldn't get another chance) proved that theory to be false.

[carlmhbarenbrug]

That is pathetic. I sincerely hope she doesn't win. How on earth can they take the risk of her performing in front of the Queen and breaking down all the time? The girl and mother played up the tears. It really was transparent. Terrible.

[yorkshirelass24601]

that takes the piss, her little attention seeking act obviously worked. she is 10, go be a kid

[scshekar78]

now look at this..here we have a 10 year old who has been crying non stop (without a tear! amazing how tht is done!) for all sorts of reasons..now if such dramatics are being used for a place in finals we are gona have a bunch of cry babies on the stage from now on..in a nutshell, BGT has just set a bad precedent for others to follow..

[Neppybutt]

Although Holly had stage fright, to have picked Edelweiss was terrible. Craig Pritchard should have been the first selected, and judges should have picked Aidan.

I am becoming dissapointed in BGT with the theory the judges use to justify their selection. Pure rubbish

[littlepink2009]

its greg pitchard actually

[zvolencan1]

This show uncovers what the performer is capable of. Most of the people who come here are standing for the first time on the stage, and they have only one shot, so it´s a real test of their capability of bearing the stress and pressure that comes with business like this. Therefore I don´t think Holly Steel should have gone to the final, she simply doesn´t have nerves for this, and I am aware of how old she is. The good ones should resist the pressure anytime, anywhere.

[bianco168]

good evans should gone through

[yannixke]

*it wasn't that fair ..

[yannixke]

like simon would say:

oke look, reality check .. hollie is not gonna win tonight and she is gonna cry a lot .. i mean this in the most polite way, but she's got some very tough competition and I think it was better that greg was chosen to compete in the finals .. and quite honestly .. it was that very fair that she got second chance in the semi-final .. I mean, jamie pugh didn't get second chance, he would have done great, greg didn't get second chance, he would have done great .. etc ..

[patudzu]

There are more kids in this final than everywhere else.

Anyway, I LOVED that Hollie got through. :)

I'm so happy.

[Astrea69]

Go Hollie go!!!!!! I watch the show from Canada and you are just adorable and have an incredible voice. Wish you the best tomorrow

[mctavish1953]

why is there 5 semi finals a semi final is usuall made up of 4 2 teams play for a spot in the final and another 2 do the same tennis is 4 players so where does 5 semis come in go susan

[pabloernesto19]

CANT WAIT

[bghgalz26]

omg !!!!!!!!!!!!! cant wait for tomorrow even tho i live in the U.S i can still watch it on here my fave 3 are aidan davis, shaheen jafargholi, and shaun smith, but i have a VERY good feeling tht susan boyle is gonna take the whole thing which i dont want she's already famous ALL around the world thtz enough other ppl need the spotlight too u no??!!!!!

[Ameslan1]

Yes I am also in U.S and wish I can vote also but cannot- I have never been so insane about a show! Britains got talent is SO much better than Americas got talent though I do love Sharon Osbourne wink! My favorite is Aidan Davis for sure!! Hope he wins it all!! I love Susan Boyle also but she has already won the world over - GO AIDAN- So more amazing Popping moves!!

[pinklady1011]

really felt for greg there, but knew hollie would get the vote. those 3 tbh were the only decent acts tonight, the rest was mince. not sure mind you that hollie will cope with it... bless her!!!

[Pain5155]

the whole hollie crying is a hoax.

[bondroid1]

I agree.

[sweetestgirl9114ever]

Flawless all the way!!! Aiden is cool, Hollie is cute But i wanted Greg to go through!!

[mywolf75]

i love this too ":))) Hollie and Aidan my fav.. acts ":))

[maxoli9]

to many good acts in one round very dissapointing and they gave hollie a lot of credit just for coming back

[AjalonSays]

oh let me cry, i'm 11 - this is show business people - she's not ready for this - they should have put greg though and given him another chance

[sweetestgirl9114ever]

totally

[fashiongoddess76]

i agreeeeeeeee.

[gymnasticsrat94]

I really hope Hollie does well in the final. She was always my favorite from the moment I saw her audition, but I hope she doesn't lose it again because I don't think they would give her a second chance again.

[sanity1890]

I feel so bad for Greg! I really wanted him to get to the finals! Although I must agree with Amanda, a the end Hollie gave a better performance vocally

[LorenaIsa123]

Aiden's performance was amazing, but I hope he doesn't win, we already have George Sampson. =P

[srswofford]

Sorry to see DCD go.  Second best dance act behind MD. Neither in the finals :(

[jayanolu]

are u crazy they both got nuttin on flawless....MD was just a bunch of girls playing around on stage.

[MasterPatch]

Absurd.

The judges have lost their godforsaken minds.

[walkalonelx]

The kids are adorable. Good luck Aidan and Hollie. Cant wait to watch the final tomorrow. Thanks for posting :)

[PuntThePikachu]

IM ROOTIN FOR 2 GRAND!!!

[ydultm]

lol they're not going to win

[ChiinkBabe]

AIDAN!

[rejanegd]

As Piers said, the world is watching this show now. All because of Susan Boyle.

It would be really sad if she doesnt win. It would be unfair actually.

I think all contestants will have much more doors open for them and opportunities due to the fact millions are watching now.

They all should thank Susan Boyle for what she has done for this show. And she doesnt even realize it.

[Pain5155]

ur fukin stupid, she wasnt even that good in the final.

[mystique7777]

my comment was to bramati81

[natz351]

I found greg's performance uncomfortable

and really not very tuneful...just my opinion though

[deidarauunnn]

yeah, Greg should've got it

[rejanegd]

I SAID YESTERDAY AND I SAY AGAIN TODAY:

THE BEST CONTESTANTS ARE:

Julian Smith

Susan Boyle

Diversity

Aidan Davis.

There are others really really good, but this year those are the best ones.

[bilal8882000]

i completely agree

[sportzmen123]

I think you just said the Top 4 finishers for tomorrow. Not sure the order but these will be at the top for sure.

[SpiritmanProductions]

Right acts, wrong line-up, IMO. ;)

[AjalonSays]

you called it -

[rejanegd]

Lets clarify it here.

I definitely think Susan Boyle should win.

This list is not in any particular order. If I was to line up, it would be that way:

1. Susan Boyle.

2. Aidan Davis

3. Julian Smith or Diversity

[Voldama]

nice :D

[mystique7777]

what are you nuts? Aidan was Amazing, the best one on the show tonight!

[bramati81]

too bad this kid gone throw, the guy was amazing!
