Britain’s Got Talent 2009: A closer look at Shaun Smith
Well, I don’t know about you, but I think that Britain’s Got Talent 2009 is just getting better and better. After watching the show I have to say, it is going to be hard to pick a winner. In previous weeks, we have seen talent from Susan Boyle from Scotland to Shaheen Jafargholi from Wales.

Britain’s Got Talent 2009: A closer look at Shaun Smith

Now meet Shaun Smith, a 17 year old A level student and rugby player from Staffordshire. He came on stage and captivated the judges and the audience with his fantastic voice singing “Ain’t No Sunshine.” Shaun got praised by Simon Cowell, who compared him to the singer Mick Hucknall.

According to Right Celebrity, Simon said “I genuinely wasn’t expecting that.” He also impressed fellow judges Piers Morgan and Amanda Holden. Shaun was worried as he had his team mates with him for support. In an interview Shaun said “ I’ve been singing for as long as I can remember.” Have we found a new winner?

    Just stunning. The freshest and best singing performance in this series to date. Captivating and relaxed, Shaun Smith is a natural star.

    P.S. Simon was right about about the hand in the pocket – part of this young man’s appeal.
