Matty Juniosa goes straight to "Britain’s Got Talent' finals with second Golden Buzzer

Filipino singer Matty Juniosa has made it to the finals of "Britain’s Got Talent" (BGT) after earning another Golden Buzzer in the semifinals.

On Sunday, April 26, Juniosa delivered his rendition of Aerosmith’s rock ballad “Dream On,” earning a big round of applause, a standing ovation, and positive feedback from both judges and the audience.

BGT host Anthony McPartlin said the performance felt like watching a superstar. Singer Alesha Dixon described it as “effortlessly sensational” and a “stellar masterclass” in delivering top-tier vocals.

Following Dixon's remarks, Amanda Holden said she had already decided not to leave the decision to the audience and pressed her Golden Buzzer, sending Juniosa straight to the grand finals.

As the Golden Buzzer moment continued, British musician and influencer KSI added a quick comment, calling Juniosa “absolutely incredible” and saying he was excited to see more.

Music producer and TV personality Simon Cowell echoed the praise, agreeing it was a masterclass performance highlighting Juniosa’s impressive vocal range and sweet personality.

Overwhelmed, Juniosa said the moment felt surreal. When asked how it might resonate back home, he joked, “Oh my God, more followers. Yeah.”

Host Declan Donnelly also teased him about finally watching “Star Wars.” Juniosa laughed and admitted he had only made it 15 minutes in, but promised to finish it after the show.

Later, the 27-year-old singer shared his excitement on Instagram, posting a photo of himself in tears. He captioned it, “Yes, I’m on the toilet crying—what about it,” before thanking everyone who supported him.

On March 29, Cowell gave Juniosa his first Golden Buzzer during his audition, sending him to the semifinals. That performance has since garnered over seven million views online.
