BGT’s Amanda Holden wasn’t too happy with her co-judge Simon Cowell during the latest live semi-final.
The ITV show was back on screens on Wednesday (May 29) for the third semi-final. The likes of dance group Troll Dancers and sword swallower Heather Holiday all battled it out to bag a place in the final.
But things took an awkward turn just minutes in as Amanda and Simon clashed. Talking about her Golden Buzzer act, Sydnie Christmas, Amanda shared her excitement at seeing her on the stage.

But Simon appeared to disagree. He said: “She was my golden buzzer.” Amanda fired back: “No, you wish she was yours.” Even Ant McPartlin chimed in to shut Simon down, as he said: “No she was Amanda’s.”
Simon replied: “She was mine, I pressed it!” Talking about Sydnie, Amanda then gushed: “She is absolutely phenomenal. I don’t know what she’s singing, I want to be surprised. But I know she’s going to smash it.”
But Simon wasn’t done as he attempted to mimic Amanda, causing her to shove him. Host Ant then had to step in to move things along. He said: “I’m sorry judges, we don’t have time.”
Amanda handed out the first Golden Buzzer of the 17th season earlier this year. She gave it to singer and gym receptionist Sydnie who wowed judges Simon Cowell, Bruno Tonioli and Alesha Dixon with her performance of Tomorrow from the iconic musical Annie.
The 28-year-old was thrilled to be put straight through to the final of the ITV talent show. She also opened up about her difficult journey to success as a singer.
Sydnie explained there had been times when she questioned if she had made the right career choice. She said: “I was pinching myself.
“I thought this couldn’t be real… this doesn’t happen to people like me. I have wanted to do this forever. To be on stage, entertain, perform and sing… singing is my thing. I have been trying to make that happen my entire career”.
