In an appearance on ITV’s Lorraine, the singing sensation told stand-in host Christine Lampard: "I find it so interesting - my first controversy. I've only been in the limelight for two minutes. "This is a weird thing that I'm some famous actor.
I've got to set the record straight. I've never been trained as an actor or a singer. I had no clue what I was doing when I got on that stage - trust me, I didn't." He continued: "Britain's Got Talent had no idea about my very small amount of acting before I went on it.
I had to tell them before I got the opportunity. "That's how famous I am, they didn't even know. I haven't been educated in the arts." This isn't the first time this series that the popular ITV show has accused of being "fixed", with fans previously left annoyed after judge Amanda Holden invited a young girl named Olivia Lynes to audition, only to then press the golden buzzer for her.
