Musician Sirine Jahangir, who is blind, took to the stage tonight as she competed for a place in the grand final.

Sirine, from London, sang the beautiful ballad while playing on a piano adorned with butterflies and the words “You’re not alone”.
The magical effect was compounded by a smoke machine filling the stage with mist as well as CGI butterflies flying around Sirine as she performed.

Sirine recently opened up to Metro.co.uk about losing her sight at the age of 10.
She explained: “I didn’t realise that I was going blind. I mean I didn’t even know what the word was, I was so unaware of the fact that I could potentially lose all my vision and then it happened when I was around like nine or 10.”
“It was definitely a life-changing moment and I am proud of myself for being able to deal with that.
“And it is my parents who really helped me to get through it and my brother.”
Other acts were performed tonight were Myra Dubois, X1X Crew, Magical Bones, Ember Trio and Sign Along With Us, Dario the Dinosaur and Bhim Nirolua.
Comedian Steve Royle and dancers Aaron and Jasmine are already through to the final after impressing the judges during the first two semi-final shows.
The finalists will compete for the £250,000 prize and the chance to perform at the Royal Variety Show, and the acts who do not get through on the judges’ vote in each semi-final still have a chance to win a slot on the public vote instead.
