The post Complete List Of Finalists Malta’s Got Talent 2020 appeared first on Entertainment in Malta.

We have to admit that Malta’s Got Talent deliberation night tonight was full of surprises. Some choices were great, yet some disappointing to say the least. In all there were over 100 acts, 72 which we actually get to see on this and the previous programs. Thanks to the Golden Buzzer pass, 5 of these go straight to the Malta Got Talent semi finals, leaving 67 at the table for deliberation.

Before that,  we get to see 5 more acts perform on stage. Four of these, get the judges’ approval before moving on to deliberation on who’s getting through to the live shows.

Let’s start with the last of the passing acts we get to see tonight before listing all the acts making it through to the live shows.

The Last Of The Acts We Get To See Tonight

A Solo Dancer

Tonight’s show opens with Francisco Antonio who’s from Venezuela but is living in Malta. Francesco, who is 27, dances his heart away to a variety of Latin and commercial songs earning him 4 Yesses. Watch his performance below.

The Young Rock Star

10 year old Geneve Dimech is up next with her own original song . On stage with an electric guitar, Geneve goes on to give us a great rock song, written and composed by herself. Her great strong voice, together with a fine tune and great lyrics earn her a standing ovation from all the judges and 4 Yesses.

Hip Hop and Break Dance

Street Elements are a dance team. The youngest member, Kayne, is just 3 years old! They go on to show the judges their dance routine combining hip hop and break dance. Their act earns them 4 Yesses giving them a chance to make it to the live shows.

The Violinist

22 Year old Maria Cini is up next with her violin. She goes on to show her talents with a great rendition on her violin. She gets 4 Yesses from the judges.

The Golden Buzzer Acts

During the past 6 episodes we saw all the Judges and the host Gordon give their Golden Buzzer to various acts. These acts go straight through to the semi finals. Here’s a quick reminder of these acts in the video below.

Malta’s Got Talent Deliberation

The judges must have a hard time deciding who is going through to the live shows and who is not with a vast choice in front of them. Out of 67 remaining acts with a YES pass, the judges actually need to pass just 25 acts into the live shows. In total there will be 30 acts in the semi final, 5 of which are already through with their Golden Buzzer pass.

In Malta’s Got Talent deliberation the judges discus all the kids’ acts, the dance acts and the variety acts before making a final decision. As one expects, the decisions are not easy and the judges have a tough call to make. However we are surprised with some of the acts the judges actually do choose. Here are all the acts making it through to the live shows during their video calls with the judges to pass on the good news.

A Final Note

So that was tonight’s show and the next episode will be the 1st ever Malta’s Got Talent Semi Finals. We may not agree with all the acts making it through to the live shows that the judges end up choosing. I guess many others will not agree as well as there may have been more deserving and talented acts. But hey, this is television and we guess the show needs some variety during the live shows.

We now look forward to seeing what all the acts are going to bring to the Malta’s Got Talent Semi Finals.

What do you think of the Judges’s choices? Do you think some acts that were not chosen deserved to be part of the semi finals instead of others? We would love to hear your views!

Judge Maxine, is the last to give her Golden Buzzer pass to a deserving act and we see her do this in Episode 6 of Malta’s Got Talent. Her Golden Buzzer goes to a young songwriter and singer Emma Cutajar who shows a lot of talent.

Emma who is just 14 years old, wins her golden pass with a brilliantly composed song. Her poetic lyrics are about her sister, who sadly passed away before Emma was ever born. The heartbreaking lyrics and her performance comes across very sincere, winning over the judges’ and viewers’ hearts.

Re-live the moment Emma Cutajar earns her Golden Buzzer that passes her straight into the semi finals.

You can watch Emma Cutajar’s full performance here.

The moment the show’s host Gordon Bonello showed some emotions during their act, we knew this was the act to receive his push of Golden Buzzer. Father and Son duo, Joemike and Layden were the receivers of this gateway into the semi finals.

Watch the moment that Gordon pounces all his weight on the Golden Buzzer hereunder:

 Joemike and Layden have been going at this for at least a year as we found some interesting footage from June 2019, when Layden was just 4 years old.

The traditional Maltese humorous song ‘Makjetta‘, goes back many years however it is a tradition that is loosing ground. This is the reason why Gordon is inspired to give that pass to this act, saying so himself. However we also think that this act deserves Gordon’s gift to them. You can watch the whole act and the other passing performances on last week’s show rundown here .

Do you like this traditional Maltese type of song and do you think Joemike  and Layden deserve Gordon’s Golden Buzzer?

This is the 5th episode in this season’s series. Tonight we get to see more entertaining acts ranging from a Strongman to a traditional Maltese Song act. Most of tonight’s acts are dominated by children ranging from 5 to 12 year olds.

However the highlight of the evening comes at the end of the show, by our host Gordon Bonello. His Golden Buzzer passes the deserving act straight through to the semi finals.  In all the judges let  8 acts through with their Yes votes, 1 act with the Golden Buzzer, leaving 2 acts that do not make it through. As usual here’s our run down of tonight’s acts making it through the next stage.

The Bubbly Singer

Next to go is 11 year old Thais Farrugia. Thais despite having to use a leg support for one of her legs and a heartwarming story, goes on to give the judges a bubbly interpretation of the song ‘All About The Bass’. Her rendition is presented in a Blues / Jazz style presentation. She earns the sympathy  of the judges for her story but the 4 Yesses for a her song.

The Dance Team

Southville Dancers are a dance team with ages ranging between 21-33 years old and they are next to go. On stage they present a sharp dance performance, showing great presence and precision. This earns them 4 Yesses fro our beloved Judges.

Another Young Singer

Tonight we are being treated with young talent. Next on stage is 10 year old Layla Pulis from Valletta. Layla impresses the judges with a powerful voice when she reaches the refrain of Lady Gaga’s ‘Into The Shallows‘. This in turn earns her the 4 Yesses she wants from the judges.

The Strongman Act

Paul Grima is 70 years old and he is standing on stage up next to show off his talents. Mr Cool, ‘Broken Bones’ as he wants to be called, has been training since he was 16 years old. He went on training to become a strong man act at 44 years. Paul entertainers the viewers and judges as he plays his pipe and then his assistant, breaks a stone on his head. Ok it’s a weird act but it did its job and got Paul the judges’ approval with 4 Yesses. Watch this below.

The Father And Son Owl Show

Up next are Lawrence and Carl and Nina. Lawernece is Carl’s father and Nina is their male owl. That’s right a male owl called Nina. They go on to show us and the judges Nina’s abilities with the host Gordon doing his bit too! Watch this to learn why this owl’s name is Nina!

The Cute Dancing Duo

Sy and Izaya are 9 years old each. They bring to the Malta’s Got Talent stage a sweet dramatic melody of different dance styles ranging from Cha Cha to Rock and Roll. Their energetic moves earns them the 4 Yesses they deserve, getting them through to the next stages of the competition.

A Traditional Father and Son Act

You may think that one father and son act for the night would be enough. But viewers are surprised with yet another father and son act when on stage there is 5 year old Layden and his father Joemike. They go on to present their act consisting of a traditional ‘Makjetti’. Makjetti is a style of a traditional Maltese humorous song that may be sung as a solo or as a duet. Watch this lovely act and why it earns Gordon’s Golden Buzzer Push!

Conclusion

So that is one more  episode of Malta’s Got Talent 2020 over. Tonight’s show did offer a variety of acts, each great in their own merits. Apart from the strongman and owl acts, we did not see any type of circus acts but that was not disappointing. We at Entertainmentmalta.com are happy with Gordon’s choice to give the Makjetti act his Golden Buzzer push as this is a dying tradition that needs to survive.

As usual we look forward to the next episode of this series with more surprises in store for us viewers.  Tune into this website as we sum up all the acts that are making it to the stage here on Entertainment Malta.
