Hollie Steel’s Audition Wowed Simon Cowell, Preventing Him From Pressing The Red Buzzer
Hollie Steel won millions of hearts as a 10-year-old schoolgirl from Accrington, Lancashire, when she stepped onto the Britain’s Got Talent stage in 2009. Competing in Series 3, her extraordinary singing voice earned her a spot in the Final and left audiences across the nation in awe.
From that moment, she became a symbol of raw talent and youthful charm, inspiring many with her unforgettable performances.
Hollie Steel’s audition for Britain’s Got Talent was full of surprises. She started with a short ballet routine, but Simon interrupted, asking her to stop. Instead of faltering, Hollie confidently transitioned into a stunning rendition of “I Could Have Danced All Night” from My Fair Lady.
Prepare to be amazed by her incredible vocal in the video below, which has reached nearly 20 million views:
Her powerful voice left the judges in awe, with Amanda describing her reaction as “stunned” and Kelly marveling at how such a big voice could come from someone so tiny. Hollie’s performance is considered one of the most memorable moments of the season.
The video quickly went viral on social media. While several videos gained millions of views with the numbers climbing, all have received overwhelmingly positive feedback.
One viewer remarked, “Totally iconic! This never fails to please me and having us on about being a dancer was an absolute gas; stroke of genius even. I just wonder whose idea it was to pull this little bit of wool.” Meanwhile, many others admitted they’d watched it so many times they lost count.
