What an amazing performance !
I managed to catch the last 20 minutes of the Michael Jackson memorial when it was shown live on CNN. Among the singers performing was Shaheen from Britain’s Got Talent ! For those who have never seen the show (shame on you !) Shaheen Jafargholi is a 12 year old kid from Wales with an unbelievably good voice. He got to the final of BGT and was very unlucky not to have finished in the top 3. I actually think he is a much bigger talent than Susan Boyle.
Anyway I couldn’t believe he was performing, then I remembered the song he famously performed on BGT was a Michael Jackson song. Also I found out that he was due to perform with MJ in those London concerts.
He performed the same song in front of 18,000 people last night and his performance was just incredible. He got a standing ovation at the end. Afterward they were interviewing Larry King and he kept asking who this kid was and that someone should sign him up. Larry, come on don’t you think Simon Cowell has already got him signed up on a long contract way before he performed in front of a world wide audience of millions ??
Enjoy the clip. Remember he is only 12 years old !!

Amazing performance! The fact that he had no time to even practice shows how naturally talented he is. Im sure Simon Cowell snapped him up straight away!
WOW! Amazing! Truly talented!
Za : I agree and I’m sure Simon had the idea of having him sing in such a high profile event !
Ansam : I know ! Such a powerful voice for such a small kid, and didn’t show any nerves singing in such a massive event!
