Nkululeko Innocent Masuku, 33, is a South African opera singer, who is now based in London, and one of the first two finalists.
He is a former studio member of the Cape Town opera where he made his first public performance in a production of Porgy and Bess – which was set in Argentina and saw him play the part of Crabman.
He then played the role of Borsa in Rigoletto and has also played Tamino in The Magic Flute.
The tenor is currently working at Garsington Opera, based near Oxford, and has performed in classes led by Maestro Kamal Khan and Willard White.
Innocent has been recognised for his work in the field with a number of awards, including a Merit award in the 2019 SAMRO competition, a Drake Calleja trust award, and sponsorship by The Tillet Trust fund.
Although Innocent said opportunities in London were ‘vast’ at the time of his audition, he said he had faced rejection from a number of opera-based opportunities in the past.
However, he appeared to believe in his ability to make it to the final from the outset, when questioned about his talent by Simon Cowell.
His audition saw him perform a rendition of Caruso by Lucio Dalla, which saw fellow judge Alesha Dixon admit that she was ‘lost for words’.
Chosen by the judges as the second act to go through to Sunday’s final, Ssaulabi Performance Troupe are a Taekwondo group from South Korea.
Before their audition, the group stated that they were competing in order to showcase the impressiveness of the martial art to the judges
In their audition, the group performed a synchronised Taekwondo routine, which involved them breaking bricks, performing a series of flying kicks into the air whilst breaking wooden boards and having two group members spar with one another.
Commenting on the group’s prowess, Alesha said: ‘I can’t even imagine how much discipline, hard work and dedication that it’s taken for you to achieve what you just did there today’.
Alesha and Bruno Tonioli both voted for them to make the final, along with Amanda Holden – meaning that Simon Cowell was not required to vote.

However, he subsequently confirmed that he would have voted for the martial arts troupe as well should he have needed to do so.
The group thanked the judges for their show of faith in them, adding that they wanted to show ‘everything they had’ in Sunday’s final.
A further eight entrants will feature each night of the week before the final, with two acts from each evening making it through – one decided from a public vote and the second decided by the judges.
