The pair performed an ABBA medley in order to kick off the night's show, with Simon saying he was "giving the people what they want" when they chose them to respond.
After that were Danish group Ping Pong Pang, a unique, neon-loving dance troupe who performed a routine dancing with paddles.
Simon told the group: "If you won, it would be an F You to a certain group of people to deserve it.'
Stacey Leadbetter, who secured KSI's golden buzzer, then took to the stage, singing a version of Robbie Williams' iconic track, Angels.
Comedian Joseph Charm then took to the stage, waxing lyrical on relationships, his family, and racism in the UK.
"You made everybody feel a part of your act, you weren't afraid to go to the uncomfortable places - we need to go there more," said Alesha Dixon.
"I praise you, I'm proud of you. Congratulations, my friend."

Simon was critical of the performance, telling him: "If I'm being honest with you, I did prefer the song you sung in the first semi."
He then quickly added: "But it doesn't matter, you did brilliant." as boos rung out among the audience.
Drag Queen Jasmine Rice then dazzled with a performance of Nessun Dorma – breaking down in tears as Amanda declared that "she thought she had just seen the winner of Britain's Got Talent".
Nine-year-old gymnast Binita Chetry was cheered on by her parents as she took to the stage next - with Simon calling her "one of the most talented contestants they'd ever had" after their audition.
Performing a daring routine to Everybody Wants to Rule The World, the youngest finalist left the judges staggered by her performance.
The Blackouts – whose semi-final run was dogged with a technical error – took to the stage with a nearly flawless performance starting with the Robbie Williams song, 'Let Me Entertain You'.
Bruno told them: "Absolutely dazzling, you blew my mind! I thought I was at the Royal Variety already!"
Harry Moulding was next up, taking inspiration from Tom Cruise by jumping out of a plane as part of his latest trick - completing a skydive from 12,000 feet as he correctly guessed judges' cards.
"All I can say is Mission Accomplished!" joked Bruno at the impressive feat.
Finishing the night's final performances was 11-year-old rocker Olly Pearson, who was given a special message from Kaiser Chiefs' Ricky Wilson ahead of their guitar-shredding set.
However, Ant and Dec were forced to stall after a technical hitch meant the youngster's staging wasn't ready.
As the voting lines opened, viewers were treated to an appearance from KSI, who appeared as a replacement judge throughout the series, and Tom Grennan.
Britain's Got Talent is available to watch in full on ITVX.
