Amanda Holden was out of her chair to hit the Golden Buzzer after the 'hidden star,' of The Greatest Showman stunned the Britain's Got Talent panel by auditioning for the show and she's back for more as she aims for a place in Sunday's final.
Right after the judges had seen another singer give a not so impressive version of Never Enough, one of the stand out songs from the smash hit movie, American singer Loren stepped out onto the stage to be the final auditionee of Britain's Got Talent' s launch show on Saturday night. While her name wasn't instantly recognisable to them, as soon as she mentioned the song she lent her vocals to, the judges put two and two together, with Simon gobsmacked she had tried out for the show.
While it's Loren's voice heard in The Greatest Showman and its accompanying soundtrack, it's actress Rebecca Ferguson who is seen performing the song in the role of Jenny Lind, miming to Loren's vocals. Loren earned one of the fastest standing ovations in Britain's Got Talent history, when the entire audience were on their feet by the time she'd finished the first chorus, before she delivered high note after high note to finish an absolutely superb performance.

As the judges too rose to their feet and Loren took in all the applause, Amanda reached down to hit her Golden Buzzer, as gold confetti rained down on Loren who became visibly moved on stage.
Amanda then stepped out from the panel and onto the stage, telling Loren: "Congratulations, that was unbelievable." Getting back in her seat , Amanda added: "I'm shaking. I can't believe I've had this incredible opportunity to give you your moment to shine," with an audience member overheard saying: "She's got the recognition she deserves."
