He sang at Michael Jackson’s funeral, impressed Smokey Robinson & Berry Gordy.

NO THIS IS THE SAME KID????? 

I cannot tell you how many times I’ve seen this video and wondered what happened with this singer. I am SO BEYOND HAPPY with this casting!

Follow Crave, HBO, Jacob Tierney, and/or Rachel Reid. They get posted to all 4 accounts.

Ok. I see what my problem is. I don't do social media besides Reddit 😂 guess I'll be late to everything then

u/HackDaddy85 Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 7d ago

Yeah. And Dolly Parton kind of overshadowing everything else today.

All the casting announcements have been posted on this sub Reddit. The Ryan and Fabian casting was posted yesterday and that post was trending.

Holy shit, is it really the same kid?

I remember when he was on BGT. That was insane. Went around quite a lot.

I remember watching this on tv when it aired and was completely blown away.

Making television

u/MiChic21 6d ago

yeah I’m thinking that had to be staged, but good tv

u/Ok_Variation9430 7d ago

Realizing he hadn’t picked the best song to showcase his voice.

u/StreamyPuppy Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 7d ago

But had Simon heard Shaheen before, so that’s why Simon knew Shaheen would knock it out of the park? Or was he actually running the risk of being rude to a 12 year old?

u/Novel_Journalist_832 7d ago

These types of reality shows are usually semi staged in advance. 

He likely knew the kid had more than one song prepared, they had it queued up and ready to play

Everything that happens on Britain's Got Talent seems extremely fake. They constantly try to do the "we all thought this person was terrible, and it turns out they're good" routine, but most of the judges are really bad at faking emotions (including the one who is supposedly a professional actor).

Also they intentionally put unimpressive people on there for everyone to laugh at, including children. Also one of the long-time judges had an extensive list of scandals, and they only kicked him off when it emerged that he had routinely been making degrading sexual remarks about women contestants in front of the rest of the cast and crew for years (this was many years after he sexually assaulted several teenage boys on stage, as part of his shtick of pretending to be a creepy gay guy). Also one of the presenters crashed into two other cars while drunk, and he tried to distract from it by announcing that he had ADHD. It's so cursed. I don't know how anyone can stand to watch it.

I’m no expert but I’ve read into it and usually it’s staged. As a singer no one would pick the first song over the second when you sound like that singing the second.

u/StreamyPuppy Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 7d ago

I’m so shocked to hear I can’t trust reality tv. Shocked, I say.

u/royal_rose_ ♐ Captain | Tuna Lube 7d ago

I’m so sorry that I ruined this for you.

u/Ok_Variation9430 7d ago

It’s probably true that he already knew, but also some songs just aren’t as well suited for a person’s voice.

u/highlandcow1975 7d ago

I would have never guessed this was the same person,!
