BRITAIN’S Got Talent fans have hit out at the show for a ‘huge issue’ during an audition that got the golden buzzer from Amanda.
Before his audition, eleven-year-old Oliver said on stage that he wanted to become the best guitarist in the world.
The young lad had Simon Cowell slightly surprised when he said that he admired Angus Young from AC/DC.
When he started his performance, he had the audience singing along to a medley of hits on Britain’s Got Talent.
He had the judges on their feet as he left the stage to showcase his incredible skills by the desk.
After a standing ovation, former This Morning presenter Amanda Holden was the first to speak, claiming: “A star is born,”
“I have never seen anything like that before in my life.”
The crowd in the theatre started to chant in unison as they pressured one of the judges to press the golden buzzer after they gave the young lad a standing ovation.
After a few seconds Amanda stood back up as she firmly put both hands on the giant button on the judges desk.
He looked absolutely shocked as his parents embraced as they watched in the audience.
This was whilst his grandfather celebrated with hosts, Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly.
It seems the audience in attendance were not in agreement with the viewers at home.

One viewer raged: “Why are they not letting us hear what he’s playing for the stupid song.”

As a third asked: “Why couldn’t we hear the guitar?”
And an additional viewer commented: “You can’t even hear the guitar.”
However, not all viewers were even in agreement as many claimed they were blown away by the act.
A fifth user wrote on X: “That kid with the guitar was brilliant … well deserved gold buzzer.”
While someone else gushed: “Some golden buzzers this year have been horrendous. But that 11 year old kid on the guitar deserved it. Absolutely class.”

As such, Oliver will go straight through to one of the highly anticipated semi-final live shows.
After Amanda hit the buzzer, Simon also couldn’t help but gush about the young act.
He remarked: “You already have your own distinct sound which others spend decades trying to do.
“You’re that good, seriously good. That was BRILLIANT. Good for you!
