12-Year-Old Boy Performs Classic Ballad “Because Of You” And The Judges Have Goosebumps

Although this young star didn’t go on to win the show, his still scored a deal of a lifetime. Shortly after his appearance on “Britain’s Got Talent,” he signed a record deal with Sony Music and continued to sing. Apart from gaining fame and a record deal off the show, Ronan was also stuck in a little controversy.

I think it’s fair to assume that no reality show is complete without a little bit of controversy right? So, it was only a matter of time when someone started something in season 5 of “Britain’s Got Talent.”
It just so happened that someone spread a rumor about Ronan and BGT judge Simon Cowell. The story goes that Simon had conditioned and trained Ronan for two years before he entered the show. Of course, these allegations were baseless and Simon cleared the air on the show one night. He mentioned that Ronan got into the show on his own merit and there was no connection or contact between himself and the child star prior to him entering the show. Simon admits that the first time the two met was on the sets of the show.

We hope that this was enough to stop anyone else from spreading baseless rumors!

 

And now, let’s move on to the ballad that had everyone gushing over the then 12-year-old.

In the video shared below, Ronan chose the song “Because of You,” an interesting musical choice considering that the original singer was Kelly Clarkson. Kelly appeared on “American Idol,” judged by Simon. He was also judging “Britain’s Got Talent” when Ronan took the stage.

 

Simon is a notoriously critical and difficult-to-please judge, but Ronan’s risky song choice paid off. He blew everyone away with his rendition of the song and delivered a poised and unforgettable performance. He was calm and collective, hitting all the notes in just the right way. As an audience, you can tell that the motive for this young man was to advance to the next round and he knew his voice would be his only ticket through!
