Three years after Susan Boyle first stunned the world during the audition rounds for "Britain's Got Talent," it appears that the show may have found someone with the potential to take the world by storm in a similar sort of manner.
Speaking per the Daily Mail about some auditions that were held in London, music mogul (and returning judge) Simon Cowell had this to say about an overweight 17-year old auditioner named Jonathan Antoine:
"I think London may have the winner this year ... 'It was like Susan all over again."
Ironically, Antoine was actually joined during his audition by a partner in 16-year old Charlotte Jaconelli -- and it was someone who Cowell actually encouraged him to dump before moving on to the next phase of the competition. (However, this reportedly did not happen.)
We will have an opportunity to find out some of Antoine's talent for ourselves when "BGT" premieres on ITV later this year.
