Afronita and Abigail, two talented Ghanaian dancers, have secured a spot in the highly anticipated finale of Britain's Got Talent (BGT) 2024, following a show-stopping semi-final performance that captivated both the judges and the audience, leaving them in a state of wonder and admiration.
The duo delivered an electrifying routine that showcased their extraordinary talent and Ghanaian heritage. They performed a medley of popular hits, including Fuse ODG's "Azonto," Beyoncé's "Run The World," and Toofan's "Gweta" among others. Their performance earned them a standing ovation, with the crowd showering them with praise even during the judges' evaluation statements.
Judge Amanda Holden described their performance as "unbelievable." Judge Bruno Tonioli praised their unique style of dancing, musicality, and personality, saying, "Looking at you makes me happy, you really are a tonic for the spirit." Even the notoriously tough judge Simon Cowell was impressed, stating, "When you've got it, you've got it." He noted that the Ghanaian dancers left him stumped and, although he was certain who would win the competition a day before, their mesmerizing routine had him questioning his prediction.
Afronita expressed her gratitude, saying, "This is a big testimony for me, for Abigail, for Ghana, and for everyone that supports us. We are so grateful. It's been so emotional... thanks to God and everyone." Ghanaians took to social media to celebrate the achievements of Afronita and Abigail, aged 20 and 7 respectively. Many are rooting for the two young girls to win the competition.
Afronita and Abigail will meet 10 other contestants in the finale on Sunday, June 2, 2024. They have made Ghana proud and are hoping to make history as the first Ghanaians to win the BGT Golden Buzzer. The duo's performance has been described as "out of this world," and they are expected to deliver another electrifying routine in the finale.
