Amanda SURPRISES 11-year-old with Audition and a GOLDEN BUZZER | Auditions | BGT 2023

Who knew someone so small could have a voice so BIG!

11-year-old Olivia Lynes blew the roof off with that performance of 'Defying Gravity'.

What a GOLDEN moment being surprised with an audition AND being given a Golden Buzzer by Amanda Holden.

This is a perfect example of parents raising their children with manners. She’s the most polite, sweetest little girl with the most incredible voice. Her parents must be SO proud

[GiftedVoicez]

She's 11 years old! That's a very powerful vocals for an 11 years old. She really deserves the Golden Buzzer.

THE WAY SHE JUMPS INTO AMANDA'S ARMS--

Honestly, I love how Bruno always stands up to deliver his critiques, something about it feels respectful.

Sat here in tears ..thank you Amanda for giving a young girl that obviously loves theatre and music the confidence to pursue her dreams. Olivia has raw talent and a gift ❤

[ScottLulu]

No sob story, just an amazing talent and such a sweet soul. Seeing her running into Amanda’s arms at the end is everything. Go get ‘‘em Olivia and win it all

Olivia has the voice out of a Disney movie. Absolutely beautiful. She’s going places. ♥️

I am a 75 yr old geezer and she moved me to tears…brilliant and adorable…well done …

[lungimasiza]

The moment she and Amanda ran to each other & Amanda lifted her up, that big beautiful hug tugged at all my hearts strings!! The most precious moment 🤍 Well done sweet girl Olivia, may all your dreams come true ✨

That 11 year old made the impossible vocals possible. More magic happened when the audience got up before she stopped singing. Loved it 100%!

[michaeloneil]

It was so nice to see her gaining confidence as she progressed in the song, turning it up. By the end, she owned the song and the stage. At the end, looking up in the auditorium was a special moment.

[aqua_fuschia]

That's a very powerful voice for an eleven year old. Can't wait to hear her sing as her voice becomes more mature. She's only gonna get better!

[rayl]

You just knew she had it the second she said to herself “Come On”. Then proceeds to lose herself when singing, what a star in the making. When she runs and hugs Amanda in the end, what a special connection. Soooo cute

[ellyboo]

Finally a golden buzzer that is based on PURE talent and no sob story!!! Amazing job Amanda giving the golden buzzer, and Olivia wow what a star a future west end legend in the making!!

[trombones]

06:17 THAT high note. Goosebumps. Unreal performance.

[JB-egtb]

The insights from the audience adds even more to the performers videos-- "I think I'm going to start crying" "Come On". Words of encouragement that will never be heard during the performance, adds another layer to the excitement of having a live audience. Great singer and great audience!

To hear her say "Come on" in the beginning and to hear her dad say "Come on" towards the end shows the connection between father and daughter. What a great edit!

[e.s.k]

That split moment between when she'd finshed singing and when the crowds started clapping for her amazing performance.... She just set every one of them in silent mode ❤️❤️❤️ bravo young lady well deserved 🔥🔥

[paradymelift]

She’s fantastic!! She KILLED that difficult ending and then just stood there like a little girl. There was something heart stopping about it.

[timweatherbee]

I have watched this video at least 30 times in the past 5 hours, this young lady is absolutely amazing and humble.
