Canadian entertainer Alexandra Burgio wowed with her card tricks which saw her tape up Ant McPartlin's face and entirely cover Declan Donnelly's so that he couldn't see.
Alexandra looked stunning in an all-white ensemble as she expressed her desire to be the "Rihanna of magic".
Bruno Tonioli even told her she was "smoking hot" as he lauded praise upon the star.
Fans of the programme were left bowled over by her good looks as she managed to impress the panel with her tricks.
Simon Cowell even suggested that she could become Las Vegas' next big act.
Reacting to her performance, one ecstatic viewers said online: "Sexiest act ever in the history of BGT I'd say."
Another added: "She's a bit of hot stuff."
A third went on to say: "She's hot tbh."
Before a fourth penned: "Oh my god i fancy her so f***ing much it's insane."
But whilst one fan was impressed with Alexandra's good looks, they took a more critical approach of her magic.
BGT's Simon baffled fans as he SLAMS semi-final act - despite putting them through
They said: "She may be hot but this is too dragged out."
Ahead of her appearance on the semi-final, Alexandra spoke to The Sun in which she confessed she was desperate to show her act to King Charles.
She said: 'I would love to show my act to the King. However, I wouldn't dream of taping up His Majesty — unless, of course, that was his dream.'
But she is keen to point out her sexy performances are not solely for the fellas.
She explained: 'I'm not just for men, I'm for anyone who enjoys confidence and strength.
'You would think the older, stuffier type would shy away from that kind of energy — but usually, they are the ones who need the most discipline.'
Of the blokes who have been sliding into her DMs, Alexandra added: 'Sure, I got plenty of messages from men, but I don't pay them much attention.
'I'm doing this one for the ladies.'
BGT's Best Golden Buzzer Moments
BGT have handed out many Golden Buzzer's over the years, can you remember some of the most famous Loren Allred - Loren Allred, 32, from Brooklyn, New York jetted to London to audition after recording the vocals for The Greatest Showman. The stunning singer got a standing ovation and a Golden Buzzer from the judges as she delivered a stirring rendition of Never Enough from the popular film. Loren came out on stage and revealed to the judges they would have heard her voice many times before that moment. "I was hired to record the vocals for The Greatest Showman as a guide for the actors to know how to sing the songs," she explained. Loren then revealed actress Rebecca Ferguson was so stunned by her singing that she decided to let her vocals be heard in the movie. "So she lip-synced," Loren said.

Amanda Holden was so impressed with Paddy that she gave her the Golden Buzzer, which sent them straight through to the semi-finals. But things took a worrying turn when Paddy cracked a rib while rehearsing a new move and her place on the show was under doubt. She was given the all-clear to perform in the end but didn't quite live up to expectations.

Bars and Melody were first seen on the 2014 series of Britain's Got Talent, getting shuttled into the semi-finals when Simon Cowell pressed his Golden Buzzer. They made it to the final thanks to a performance of I'll Be Missing You but lost out on the crown to Collabro. These days Charlie Lenehan - known as Melody - is covered in tattoos, with inkings on his neck, arms and chest. But he is as close as ever to co-star Leondre Devries - who is Bars - with the pair seen enjoying themselves in exotic locations all over the world.

Coronation Street fans rumble what really happened to Becky in sad Swain twist

Coronation Street fans are convinced they know what really happened to Becky - DS Lisa Swain's former partner - after Betsy learned some truths about Becky in tonight's episode Coronation Street fans have worked out what really happened to Becky. The character has never appeared on screen but she was a huge part of Lisa Swain's life before she arrived on the Cobbles. Lisa lost her partner Becky in the line of duty and has struggled with that since, unable to cope with the effect it had on their daughter Betsy and has feared her own danger whilst out on the beat after what happened to her late partner. ‌ Tonight, there was a shock twist as some truths came out about Becky, with more to come. Betsy found some files about Becky and whilst Swain tried to pass it off, Betsy continued her investigation with it looking like there was some corruption involved. ‌ We know Becky died in the line of duty after being run over by Mason's evil brothers during a robbery but now fans of the ITV soap have come up with a whole new theory about what happened to Becky. One fan wrote: "Becky Swain has either faked her own death or is in witness protection. Likely to next be seen alive at Carla & Lisa's wedding day when the guy asks if anyone has any objections." "So when Becky finally arrives, I need someone to make a joke about Lisa having a type. I'll even accept Becky saying it too," another added, with a third sharing: "Okay so Becky is either in whiteness protection or was a bent copper and idk what I'd love more #Corrie." There has been much talk about how well things are going for Carla and Lisa - affectionately named Swarla by fans - with Sydney Martin recently telling The Mirror that Betsy is rooting for them too. "I think secretly she would love it. Sydney would absolutely love it, but Betsy I think internally she would too. She knows the dynamic really works and she does truly see Carla as a stepmother and as family. But I think she would still be Betsy wouldn't she, and she would probably be embarrassed by them both," she told us. Vicky Myers - who plays Lisa - also shared her own hopes about the future for her character and Carla. She said: "I think a backstory would be great, but I think in time. There are so many other things that I think should be explored with the two of them and their extended family, and how they navigate life all together in their flat." Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX.

Coronation Street star reacts to major show change and teases 'exciting' twists

Coronation Street's Amy Barlow actress Elle Mulvaney has had her say on the schedule shake-up set to come into effect on the ITV soap in 2026, and she also teased the 65th anniversary One Coronation Street favourite has revealed all on a major change coming for the ITV soap. She also teased some "exciting" moments ahead, a possible romance for her character and hinted at the soap's 65th anniversary later this year. Amy Barlow actress Elle Mulvaney spoke exclusively to The Mirror about what was coming on the show for her character and others. ‌ She addressed hopes from fans for Amy and close pal Aadi Alahan to finally get together, after a near romance months earlier. When asked about the Emmerdale crossover, she promised fans it would be "unreal" while she also teased "exciting" 65th anniversary episodes later in the year. ‌ While Elle is yet to find out much of what's ahead, the stuff she does know will be kept under wraps for the time being. But it's safe to say there's good stuff ahead for Amy, while the actress did have her say on the news that from January 2026, the show will be on every night and will transmit shorter episodes. Some viewers had been worried about the news, but Elle says it's a good change-up as she recalled it was this way not too long ago. She told us: "I think it's exciting. Obviously we used to be five episodes not massively long ago so I don't think it is gonna be that different. "I almost feel like viewers will be getting more in a way because it will be on every single night. It's just a big change isn't it." Elle also shared her thoughts on the crossover, hoping to be involved as Corrie and Emmerdale unite. She said: "Oh my God, we are absolutely ecstatic about it. We cannot wait to know about it all, it's gonna be unreal. If you are a fan of both shows then this is a dream come true. "I mean hopefully I'll be involved. We will have to wait and see! You have got to remember that we both have got such massive casts so it will be a case of how many people can you fit into one episode, but we'll see! Hopefully I'm in it." ‌ She also remained coy about what she did or didn't know about the looming celebrations for the show's 65th, while one cast member teased the focus would mainly be on the crossover. Elle told us: "I'm excited to find out the details but I can't say anything!" Finally, Elle teased that things may be revisited for Amy and Aadi after their near-romance and their clear feelings for one another. She hinted: "For Amy we will definitely see more family things going on ahead, with the dynamics changing with both her parents having split again. "There is all of that going on and in Amy's love life, we might see some changes there so there's definitely a lot to come up." She added when asked about Aadi: "That's it, I think it will be a will they won't they situation but you will have to watch and see!"

Huge ITV show in chaos as host quits and EastEnders star joins line-up

ITV and production company TriForce Productions have announced this week that Jimmy Akingbola will be replaced by Chizzy Akudolu as the host of Sorry, I Didn't Know ITV has announced a change to the line-up of a panel show that is set to film another series later this year. It's been revealed this week that the host won't be returning and that a former soap star will be joining the on-screen teams. Sorry, I Didn't Know, described as the first ever quiz show centred around Black history, launched as a pilot on ITV2 in 2016, before its first series aired in 2020. It returned for its fifth series last year, and it has now been renewed once again. ‌ The show had been hosted by Jimmy Akingbola, 47, who is also an executive producer, since it began. His former Holby City co-star Chizzy Akudolu, 51, had been a team captain, with her having appeared in her role since the pilot episode too. ‌ It's been announced that Jimmy won't host the upcoming sixth series of Sorry, I Didn't Know, though. His departure from the role is attributed to filming commitments in the US for the final season of Peacock 's Bel-Air. Chizzy will instead take over as host for the upcoming series, as announced this week. It's teased that she will be "hoping to keep a tight rein" of returning team captain Eddie Kadi, 42, and her own replacement on the panel show. It's been announced Richard Blackwood, 53, will replace Chizzy as a team captain in the new series. The actor, who is known for roles like playing Vincent Hubbard on EastEnders, has previously appeared as a guest on the show. The news about the sixth series, set to be filmed over the summer, has been announced by ITV and production company TriForce Productions. It's been said that the renewal means Sorry, I Didn't Know has broken its own record for the longest-running show from a Black-led production company. Executive producer for TriForce, Fraser Ayres said: "Chizzy has been part of the SIDK family since our pilot in 2016 and was amazing when she hosted an episode last series, so it's great to see her in the hosting seat. And in Richard we have the perfect sparring partner for Eddie. ‌ "They're long-time friends and he has already shown he's a brilliant and hilarious guest, so we are thrilled he will be joining the team on the regular. Chizzy will have her work cut out keeping them both in line but we have full faith in her to keep things on track and with her particular brand of chaos in the mix as well, what could possibly go wrong?!" Katie Rawcliffe, Director of Entertainment & Daytime Commissioning at ITV, added: "Sorry, I Didn't Know is infectiously funny and that is testament to the series returning for an impressive sixth series. This season, Chizzy is stepping into Jimmy's hot seat, and I can't wait to see her take the helm." ‌ Richard will be the latest team captain on the panel. Jo Martin had been one of the team captains for the pilot, with Judi Love then taking over from her in the first two series. Eddie has been in the role since the third series in 2022. The team captains oversee a panel of guests each episode who have their knowledge tested. Guests in the last series of Sorry, I Didn't Know included Bridgerton 's Adjoa Andoh and comedian Munya Chawawa.
