Return of Mr Nasty: Simon Cowell makes 19-year-old singer cry on Britain's Got Talent as singer Jai and dancer Steven go through

By JODY THOMPSON


Down and out: Jessica, who was comforted by co-host Declan McDonnelly, was then voted out of the competition


He started off on British television screens as being the ruthless baddie we all loved to hate before toning his cutting remarks down.

But Simon Cowell was back all guns blazing as Mr Nasty tonight, reducing a pretty 19-year-old singer to tears on Britain's Got Talent with his harsh words, despite putting in a sterling effort with her singing.

Jessica Hobley was then voted off the show, and big-voiced singer Jai McDowall and comedy dancer Steven Hall were put through to Saturday's grand final.


Devastated: Jessica Hobson was left so upset she couldn't speak tonight on the Britain's Got Talent live semi-final after a tongue lashing from Simon Cowell


In her audition, Sheffield girl Jessica had sat behind a piano to do an acoustic version of Michael Jackson's Billie Jean, but tonight, did a big song and dance number of Beyoncé's Single Ladies - and Simon hated it.

Although the audience appeared to enjoy her performance in a sparkly dress, and after positive comments from judges Michael McIntyre - who deemed it 'excellent' and Amanda Holden 'great' - Simon laid into her.

As the audience booed loudly, he snarled: 'I thought it started fine, with you on the keyboards, but then it got increasingly worse.


Keyboard queen: Jessica had started off as she did for her audition behind the piano but then got up to sing with a host of backing dancers


The verdicts: Despite thumbs up from three judges head judge Simon Cowell laid into her - even criticising her dress


Tears: The 19-year-old was left in a flood of tears as millions of viewers watched her being comforted by host Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly


'You're 19 years old, whoever came up with the idea of you with the two dancers was really dated, and I didn't like the version of the song.

'You should have been on your own at the piano and not you in the silly dress. I think the show did you wrong tonight.'

As tears started springing to her eyes and she was comforted by show co-hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly, she attempted to explain that her performance hadn't been her idea.


Making his point: Head judge Simon Cowell slated Jessica's performance of Beyoncé's Single Ladies as well as her outfit


She managed to get as far as stuttering: 'I didn't choose what I wanted to sing.

Apparently, it was somebody...' before choking up and dissolving in tears.

Judge David Hasselhoff however tried to comfort her, saying: 'You don't have to come out with a whole big production, stay intimate with your audience.

'You did a great job though but go back to what you do best.'

But it was too late and Jessica was bereft.

The show had opened with a Welsh all-girl dance outfit called Dance Angels Elite who dazzled with a colourful routine, and received all round praise, despite some reservations from Simon.

However, there were literally some howlers on the show.



Doggone: Canine act Mexican Mayhem, consisting of madcap Melanie and her brace of chihuahuas, were out of the show


Melanie with Tucker and Twizzle the chihuahuas were Mexican Mayhem - but the dogs failed to perform, to hilarity from the crowd.

However, judges Amanda and Michael were so embarrassed by the act and the fact that they'd put them through to the semis that they ran away from the desk.

After being made to rejoin the panel, Amanda confessed: 'It was absolutely rubbish. I found it endearing and funny first time round, tonight I was excrutiatingly embarrassed. I'm sorry.'

David was left tickled though, enthusing: 'I thought it was the most hysterical act I've ever seeen in my life. You're trying to get them drunk on tequila and you're doing the splits. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Simon was less than impressed, interjecting: 'Really, I love dogs, but that was without question the worst dog act I've seen in my life. I don't know who's directing this show tonight, it's completely mad.'

The last Britain's Got Talent live semi final is on Friday on ITV1 at 7.30pm and 9.30pm where the last two acts will win through to Saturday's final - and the chance to win £100,000 and to play for The Queen at the Royal Variety Performance in December.

Co-host Declan Donnelly has another go at Simon Cowell over axing of Cheryl Cole from the X Factor too


She'd hoped that flashing the flesh would help her win through to the finals - but Bangkok-born stripper Wachiraporn Tirpak was sent packing by the bemused judges on Britain's Got Talent tonight.

The 28-year-old exotic dancer had hoped she'd impress by simply stripping to her bikini then changing into a series of costumes - but the judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Michael McIntyre saw sense and buzzed her off.


Need a lift? The wannabe will need a taxi rather than a couple of hunky backing dancers to get back to her home in King's Lynn now she's been voted off


Only David Hasselhoff let her see her act through to the end, probably as he was still trying to work out what it was actually about. However, she was soon sent packing home to King's Lynn.

Instead, talent won out and 11-year-old autistic ballet dancer James Hobley and Liverpudlian impressionist Les Gibson were put through to the grand final on Saturday - and the chance to win £100,000 and perform before the Queen.


Window dressing: The Bangkok born dancer didn't really do much apart from walk around the stage in different outfits


After Wachiraporn's act, which saw her emerge from giant giftwrapped boxes to the tune of Rihanna's Only Girl In The World wearing a selection of outfits as backing dancers cavorted around her, former Baywatch star David said: 'Your act the first time was like an LSD trip and this time around it was more of the same, but I don’t think it was up to the par to present to the Queen.'


Inspirational: All four judges said James Hobley showed people what could happen if they followed their dreams - then Amanda voted to put the bell ringers through


Michael was even harsher, saying: 'I just felt really embarrassed, Simon kept looking at me like I was in a lot of trouble. I felt a little like I was on a stag night to be honest!'

And Amanda waded in too, saying: 'It wasn’t very good; I have a five-year-old daughter at home who does shows for me most evenings and those are better.'


Tense: Les Gibson (L), James as well as Gay and Alan (R) wait to hear who the judges want to put through to the live final



Shock: Neither James nor Les can believe they've got through to Saturday's grand final


But Simon took it out instead on his three fellow judges, who'd put her through in the first place when he hadn't been there.

He chided: 'I just don’t know what you three (David, Amanda and Michael) were on that day. Was this the same day as the poodle (referring to dog act Angela and elderly poodle Teddy)? I said yesterday the show was bonkers, today this has gone to a new la-la level.'

Nevertheless, the public were not swayed by Wachiraporn's saucy but surreal routine and instead voted through James, with his stunning routine to Leona Lewis's Happy, and Les, after his uncanny impressions which even included show hosts Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.


Hot stuff: The show, the third semi-final was opened by freak show Circus Of Horrors


Don't try this at home: The act featured a sword swallower who had sparks flying from his dagger


Throwing shapes: Street dance act Abyss failed to get put through too


In fact, Les's performance was so spot on, it even sparked a jovial spat between Ant and Dec and Simon, where Ant once again brought up Simon's part in the sacking of Cheryl Cole from the U.S. version of The X Factor.

Les had done a sketch which was set around The Apprentice, and featured him doing the voices of Lord Alan Sugar, Louis Walsh, Gordon Ramsay and Ross Kemp before sequeing into Ant and Dec and getting their Geordie accents spot on.

The audience gave Les a standing ovation and as the applause died down, Ant and Dec went straight to Simon to ask him his opinion.


On song: Michael Buble-alike Jay Worley won fans with his swing-style cover of Kings Of Leon Use Somebody - but not enough to win



Doggone: Angela & Teddy were cute but poor old Teddy wasn't feeling up to performing all his tricks on the night


Going like the clappers: Handbell ringers Gay And Alan did a version of tunes from Phantom Of The Opera but didn't quite hit the right note


With a smirk, he hinted he could replace Dec with the contestant instead, saying: 'Ant and Les has a nice ring to it don't you thing? As we know, that's showbiz....'

But Dec hit right back, chiding: 'He's got it right in for the Geordies this week hasn't he!'

He then made a jokey aside to the camera about Les as they went to the break saying: 'I think he's rubbish.'


Tough call: The four judges had some big decisions to make tonight when deciding who to put through


Feeling green: Avril Lavigne, sporting lime-coloured streaks in her hair, performed live on the results show


Looking swish: Judge Amanda Holden had another 'Timotei' moment when she arrived at the studios before the show on motorbike and shook her hair after taking her helmet off


BGT king: Head judge Simon and ex-girlfriend Jackie St Claire arriving at the studios in north London ahead of the third semi-final


However, he proved to be the outright winner of the show, the third live semi-final, winning the biggest number of public votes, after Avril Lavigne had performed live on the results show.

It was then down to the judges to decide between the other two in the top three, dancer James and handbell ringers Gay and Alan.

But only Amanda plumped to put Gay and Alan through after their ringing rendition of songs from Phantom Of The Opera, so it was James who went through to the final.

Other acts battling it out on the show tonight but failing to win through to the finals were freak show The Circus of Horror, dog act Angela & Teddy, swing-style singer Jay Worley and street dance crew Abyss.

Britain's Got Talent is on every day this week on ITV1 at 7.30pm and 9.30pm, as the further acts are whittled down to qualify for Saturday's final - and the chance to win £100,000 and play for The Queen at the Royal Variety Performance in December.
