BRITAIN’S Got Talent viewers have criticised Bruno Tonioli’s latest Golden Buzzer act after her telly past was unearthed.
Maya Giotea, 14, wowed Bruno and his fellow judges with her incredible rendition of Beyoncé’s Listen in the latest episode.
Bruno in particular was so impressed with Maya’s performance that he awarded her the Golden Buzzer within a second of her finishing her final note.
It is the fasted Golden Buzzer awarded this series.
But fed up fans have now realised Maya has already had success on another Got Talent show.
Last year the school girl got a standing ovation when she auditioned for Romania‘s Got Talent in her home country.
Maya was given a standing ovation after belting out another power ballad, this time Whitney Houston‘s I Have Nothing, and it has even been claimed she was awarded the Golden Buzzer.
Taking to X following her audition, one viewer said: “Maya Giotea who got the golden buzzer on #bgt tonight was on Romania Got Talent & got through to the live show.”
Another added: “Yet again been on Romania’s got talent and got the golden buzzer even though there is none left!!”
However, others were thrilled to see the teen sail straight through to this year’s Britain’s Got Talent live shows.
“Mia Giotea is the sort of act that deserves a golden buzzer,” one fan said.

I remember seeing her singing Whitney Houston’s I Have Nothing on Romania’s Got Talent. Outstanding.”
And someone else wrote: “Another well deserved Golden Buzzer! So happy for her!”
Maya introduced herself to Bruno, Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden and KSI as her parents looked on from the audience on Saturday night’s show.
She told them: “It has been a big dream for such a long time and I’m here. I’m here!”

He then slammed his hand down on the Golden Buzzer and Maya collapsed to her knees as she was showered in golden confetti.
Bruno joined Maya on stage and told her: “This was the most mature, accomplished version of this song I’ve heard from someone so young.
“The depth of tone, the control of your voice but the feeling was totally real. You killed it! I’m still blown away.”
Alesha added: “You are 14. The runs, the power, I felt every word. Congratulations.”
KSI, who was standing in for Simon Cowell, said he was “blown away”.
Amanda, meanwhile, said: “Your parents must be so proud.
“Grab some of that golden dust and put it in your pocket, as you’re not going to forget this moment.”
Amanda added: “That must be the quickest Golden Buzzer in Britain’s Got Talent history.”
Meanwhile, Maya was not the only act on Saturday night that had previously appeared on a Got Talent show.
Strongman Victor Tang opened the show by showing off his muscles and singing. He openly told the judges he had already auditioned for Australia‘s Got Talent.
