Britain’s Got Talent star Magical Bones slammed ITV’s “fix” claims and says it’s “completely authentic”.
The former contestant exclusively spoke to the Daily Star and said he “doesn’t believe” fans’ claims.
He told us: “I never believe any of the fix claims, no, I think the show is completely authentic and its audience voted, so I totally disagree with any of that. And I just love the show, I think it’s great and provided me with a great platform.”

This comes after BGT act Unity was caught up in a ‘fix’ row as fans claimed they had unfair advantages over other acts, as the group has trained at Brookside star Jennifer Ellison’s theatre school Jelli Studios, and some dancers even performed at Eurovision this year.

This came to light when TV star Jennifer shared online: “My fantastic students doing me proud today at Eurovision! Thank you to everyone who made it possible. What a day.”
“Wow wow wow!!! Words cannot express just how proud we are of our amazing students who OPENED THE GRAND FINAL of tonight’s Eurovision song contest performing to 130 MILLION people. Supporting last year’s winners from Ukraine, the legendary.”
“Never have I ever been so proud in all my life!” she added. “I’m so lucky that my incredible students were brave enough to tell their stories! Omg did it pay off?? Simon’s golden buzzer when there wasn’t any left!

“He listened to the audience, I said it on the day, the audience pressed that buzzer! We spoke they listened! Thank you so much it means the world! This is for anyone who has been made to feel they are not good enough or different! That golden buzzer was for you!”
On Saturday (20 May), TV judge Simon Cowell gave them a golden buzzer to them through to the final round.
Viewers took to social media to share their thoughts on the group’s big moment.
One said: “Guessed even before they performed that they would get a golden buzzer as they hadn’t used one during the whole episode and they were amazing #BGT”

A second added: “How hell did that get the golden buzzer is beyond me. Wasn’t moving want so ever far better acts than that .”
While a third penned: “That Unity performance on #BGT was by far the most cringe thing I have ever witnessed on terestrial television! Obvious forced agenda by #ITV! If they win, then that’s proof that #BritainsGotTalent is a fix! @ITV @BGT”
