Britain’s Got Talent Fans Criticize Excessive Use of ‘The Greatest Showman’ Music
Fans of the popular talent show Britain’s Got Talent have taken to social media to express their annoyance at the excessive use of music from the musical ‘The Greatest Showman’ in the show’s auditions. The repetitive usage of songs like ‘Never Enough’ and ‘This Is Me’ has been met with criticism, with viewers arguing that it detracts from the performances of the contestants.
One viewer commented, ‘Perhaps somebody should let BGT know that they don’t need to use The Greatest Showman music in every episode.’ Another agreed, stating, ‘I imagine at this point it must be a contractual obligation or something.’
Back in 2022, fans raised similar concerns when contestant Loren Allred, who had provided vocals for the ‘The Greatest Showman’ soundtrack, auditioned for the show. Some viewers felt that it was unfair for her to compete, as she already had a connection to the popular film.
While the producers of Britain’s Got Talent have not yet responded to the criticism, the excessive use of ‘The Greatest Showman’ music continues to be a topic of discussion among fans. It remains to be seen whether the producers will address the concerns of viewers or continue with the current practice.
