Britain's Got Talent TikTok stars who got engaged during live semifinals hit back at ‘fix' rumours
TIKTOK stars who got engaged during Britain's Got Talent's live semifinals have hit back at 'fix' rumours. It came as the last remaining semi-finalists performed for a place in next week's final. 4 4 4 Viewers called out a "fix" as Harry Moulding pulled off an elaborate wedding proposal - resulting in a Golden Buzzer from KSI. Not all viewers were convinced of the moment's authenticity - and shared their thoughts online. Jess, who was proposed to, is a TikTok star with more than 80,000 followers on the platform. A fan wrote under one of her recent posts: "Hope you're ok after the backlash. "Hope you both know the general public just hate on everything." To which Jess replied: "Some comments have really made me laugh. I was in on my own proposal apparently, madness. "I'm in a complete bubble of shock and happiness and nothing can bring me down from cloud 9." A pre-recorded VT in Paris saw Harry Moulding predict a proposal - and he met another lad named Harry. Jess - the other Harry's girlfriend - was sat in the BGT audience and was "randomly" chosen to get up on stage and play the pre-recorded video. Her partner then appeared on stage in the Hammersmith auditorium andgot down on one knee. Britain's Got Talent fix row erupts as magic act is called 'biggest set up ever' after live marriage proposal Jess was left in tears as she said 'yes', leaving the judges and the presenters on their feet. But people at home were very suspicious over the "trick" and branded it a "set up". One said: "It was very obvious that the fiancee was in on the trick. He did not bring in an engagement ring randomly. So this seat number was forced. "Was Jessie also in on it? I'd like to believe she was set up for a romantic surprise, but she specified Paris, so I think she was a plant. The other seat numbers appear to also be plants." Another wrote: "There were no tricks in that performance, every single aspect was clearly staged, no talent or skill involved in any of it. "It was a complete set up by the show pretending to be an original act from a magician. Britain's Got Talent's biggest 'fix' rows Britain's Got Talent has been plagued with 'fix' rows over the years.

Britain's Got Talent fans ‘work out' how semi-final magician did his trick – did you spot it?
BRITAIN's Got Talent fans have delivered brutal feedback to semi-final magician Harry Moulding - insisting they worked out his trick. He pulled off an elaborate wedding proposal on Saturday night, resulting in a Golden Buzzer from KSI. 4 4 4 The live studio audience erupted into cheers and Harry got a standing ovation. But those at home were harder to please, and took to Reddit to moan about the performance. Harry proved himself to be quite the matchmaker and psychic - having appeared in a pre-recorded VT filmed in Paris predicting a proposal. He met a lad also called Harry in the VT, and his girlfriend Jess was sat in the BGT audience. She was then 'randomly' chosen to get up on stage and play the pre-recorded video. Her partner Harry then appeared on the stage in the Hammersmith auditorium and chose to get down on one knee. Jess was left in tears as she said 'yes', leaving the judges and the presenters on their feet. But people at home were very suspicous over the "trick", with one sharing a theory on how it played out. They said: "It was very obvious that the fiancee was in on the trick. He did not bring in an engagement ring randomly. So this seat number was forced. "Was Jessie also in on it? I'd like to believe she was set up for a romantic surprise, but she specified Paris, so I think she was a plant. The other seat numbers appear to also be plants." One wrote: "There were no tricks in that performance, every single aspect was clearly staged, no talent or skill involved in any of it. Max Fox golden buzzer moment "It was a complete set up by the show pretending to be an original act from a magician. "I know the show takes the p*** a lot but come on, that was complete b******s." Another said: "His only trick was ensuring the judges read the desired card information. Everything else followed that." A third said: "I mean. That literally is the act. All those types of magic acts are done that way. "It wasn't a very good example of that type of act. Very obviously fake, especially the 'proposal'" One more raged: "Yeah I was routing for Harry for lots of reasons but that was horrendous. He made a massive mistake and thought a woman was called concert." It comes as another act says they were told what to perform. Max Fox has taken to Instagram to hint he was given advice on what to sing, after losing out on a place in the final. In a text post, he wrote: "I took the advice ... but haven't shown you the best of me yet. "After 19 years of trying I finally had my moment. I got the Golden Buzzer, the public rallied behind me, and I had stepped into the semi final ready to show something new. "And of course, I took their expert advice. "After all, they've shaped careers and know what works on a stage like that. But deep down I knew I had much more to give. I still do."
