Britain’s Got Talent judge ‘QUITS’ show – with major star ‘lined up’ as their replacement

Bruno Tonioli is said to have left his role as a judge on Britain’s Got Talent after serving for two seasons on the ITV program.

As reported by The Sun, it’s being proposed that both a singer (KSI) and boxing star might be engaged in talks for assuming the role.

In the year 2023, Bruno, aged 69, who had been a judge on Strictly Come Dancing, stepped into the role left vacant by David Walliam’s departure, and joined Britain’s Got Talent instead.

In spite of attempts by showrunner Simon Cowell, aged 65, to persuade him otherwise, it seems his prior engagements for “Dancing with the Stars” in the United States have left him unable to carry on with the show.

According to a source, Bruno has formally resigned from Britain’s Got Talent, and there is optimism that KSI could step in as his replacement.

He adored participating on the panel alongside Simon, Alesha Dixon, and Amanda Holden, but unfortunately, Bruno found it difficult to coordinate his schedule with filming commitments.

‘There is no bad blood and Bruno is leaving with a smile on his face.’

1) TopMob has reached out to Bruno’s team for a response. It’s important to note that the lineup for next year remains only guesswork, as per sources familiar with the matter.

In the latest series, it was KSI who captivated viewers’ hearts as a guest judge.

Previously addressing chatter about KSI to become a permanent judge, Bruno showed he wasn’t phased.

He said: ‘We’re both young, attractive, multi-talented stars known the world over.

Setting jesting aside, let me say that KSI is terrific – he’s a genuinely charismatic individual brimming with enthusiasm. Notably, we both were at the BRIT Awards, an unforgettable night filled with delight.

Putting jokes on hold for a moment, I must express my admiration for KSI – he’s an engaging, vivacious man. To make it more interesting, we happened to be at the BRITs together, making it a splendid evening indeed!

The upcoming series of Britain’s Got Talent will only hold auditions in Blackpool, starting from October.

This year in February, viewers first caught a glimpse of the show’s premiere. Since then, new episodes have been broadcast every Saturday evening, taking over from the usual daily episodes.

On Saturdays, just like every other day during that week, I had the privilege of tuning in to the captivating semi-final rounds that were being broadcast.

During the series, Bruno raised eyebrows after swearing live on air in the final.

Host Declan Donnelly had to apologize to ITV audiences when an Italian choreographer used inappropriate language prior to the 9 pm family-friendly hour.

During comedian Joseph Charm’s performance, the former Strictly star paused momentarily and then remarked, “I was about to say we were laughing…” Before completing his sentence, he realized his mistake and promptly apologized.

‘I apologize if Bruno’s unintentional mistake offended anyone.’

The comment was made during a live show, and since it’s aired prior to 9 pm, there are stringent guidelines that prohibit profanity due to decency regulations.

Two years after joining the ITV talent show, Bruno eventually made it clear that he and the other judges found the performance incredibly amusing.

Some supporters reacted to Bruno’s explicit language on X by expressing various opinions. Some threatened his dismissal, while others considered it the highlight of the entire event. They wrote:

(Alternatively)

#BritainsGotTalent #BGT I’m not taking offense to Bruno using that word, but I find his constant shouting and jumping around quite annoying!

‘Bruno nearly saying p*****g themselves laughing at what we don’t know #BGT’;

Bruno let out a small exclamation that could be considered mildly inappropriate! #bgt”; or alternatively, “A bit of colorful language from Bruno. #BGTFinal #BGT #BritainsGotTalent

“Apologies, but Bruno’s swearing on Britain’s Got Talent still has me laughing 15 minutes later – it was just too hilarious! #BGT

‘Sack Bruno he just said p*ssing on live daytime television!! #bgt’;
