Hollie, the most sensational performer on Britain’s Got Talent. Hollie Steel Beats Susan Boyle and Shaheen Jafargholi

For those who have already crowned Susan Boyle champion of this year’s Britain’s Got Talent, there could be a shock in store.

Despite the Scottish singer’s explosion on to the music scene, with 100 million hits on YouTube, a new contender for the talent show title has emerged.

Sources close to the series believe that ten-year-old Hollie Steel, who will be shown auditioning on tonight’s programme, is the only performer who can challenge Boyle for the £100,000 top prize.

The budding ballerina, billed by Piers Morgan, one of the show’s judges, as a “tiny young girl singer . . . who will melt your heart”, will be shown performing a rendition of I Could Have Danced All Night, from the musical My Fair Lady. Although her dance moves do not excite Simon Cowell, viewers will see the music mogul’s jaw drop when Hollie, from Accrington, Lancashire, begins to sing.
