Britain’s Got Talent viewers want Italian judge Bruno Tonioli to be replaced by YouTube star KSI.
After taking over from comedian David Walliams, Bruno joined the BGT family in 2023 for Series 16 and has remained on the panel ever since, alongside his fellow judges Alesha Dixon, Amanda Holden, and Simon Cowell.
However, ever since series 18 kicked off last month, Bruno, 69 has been absent from some of the auditions after already committing to film for Dancing With the Stars in the US. As a result, viewers have watched him be temporarily replaced by KSI, 31, for a few episodes so far.
