SIMON Cowell has hit back on Britain’s Got Talent ‘fix’ fears.
Following backlash as Trixy performed a mesmerising magic trick for the semi-final.
One viewer said: “What are the chances all the acts are backstage? If the answer is no way then the outcome was obviously fixed.
“The calculator number trick is one of those things that can be done with numbers. It’s not magic however, Trixy was enjoyable.”
Another insisted: “That magic trick ain’t fooling me that calculator trick was pre-planned asking the Judges why didn’t he ask the audience to keep it transparent and fair.”
However, Simon was adamant he wanted to tell fans the judges don’t get involved in any of the contestant’s acts.
Simon said: “No one ever believes that we’re not in on it.
“That’s the truth, we hadn’t got a clue. I swear to god.”
Amanda Holden also added that: “It felt like we were here to see your own show.”
