Greg Pritchard Is Britain’s Got Talent
GREG PRITCHARD sings Nessun Dorma in the fashion of a ladies’ toilet attendant and Britain’s Got Talent goes wild.
There are familiar cutaway shots of the crowd nodding to each other; Amanda Holden hugging her face, perhaps to check it’s still on; Piers Morgan advertising his teeth; Simon Cowell offering his bon mots, for which Holden saves her really big applauses and wow-amazing face; and Greg Pritchard smiling.
Now the Sun takes up the Pritchard narrative and says he “wants to be seen as a FREAK like Michael Jackson”.
Says he:
“I was really scared of how I would be portrayed. While my singing is normal for me, it can be quite shocking. I thought people would see me as a freak of nature and just laugh. I don’t mind being seen as a freak — but a freak in a good way.
“I was hoping they’d see me like Michael Jackson, someone who is different but with a great talent.”
Michael Jackson is hoping for just such a billing, coming on from being known as Wacko Jacko the man with a moving target of a face with a fire crew on hand for when he’s with the nippers.
And so Greg Pritchard becomes “freaky soprano Greg”. And he has a sympathetic back story:
He revealed that fear of ridicule meant it took YEARS before he had the guts to show off his rare counter-tenor voice… Greg said he is desperate to be a star to honour the memory of his dad Spencer, killed by a heart attack three years ago aged 57.
It’s the Mirror’s:
AGONY OF HIGH VOICED GREG..
Then to put the tin lid on the madness and the pity:
“If I had to say someone I’d like to emulate it would be Sarah Brightman.”
He and Michael Jackson both…

Greg is awsome. Too bad he didn’t get through the final. Hopefully someone will be wise enough to sign him. Is there a way to find out what he is up to? Best wishes, Greg. Be true to yourself & God bless you & your family.

Greg you were robbed. The semi-final was a complete and utter joke. Rubbish kid way out of her depth goes through because she and her pushy parent threw tantrums. A total and utter farce. Don’t give up Greg, your many fans want to see more of you in the future. Do you have a website where we can follow your career?

With SuBo’s tourettic outbursts and Hollie’s tears we are in for a roller coaster of a final. First to produce a bottle of paracetamol, razor blade and a noose wins. It’s all they’ve ever wanted after all

I have just watched Greg and again he has shown a wonderful talent and has again captivated me, I sure hope someone signs him as I would love to watch him as a headliner. I feel that tonights show (semi finals - Britains Got Talent) was truly unjust (Greg did not get a second chance (not that he needed it in any case) as Holly did, i’m sure she is very sweet but this was not justifiable especially when you have such a professional to compare her to!!!!!!!; her time may well come later but it should not have been to night at the detrement of this very dedicated professional).
I am truly disappointed with Amanda and Piers who have allowed such a subjective incident to overrule rational thought, it seems that the competition is now about being brave not about the quality of original and inspiring talent! I think this should be allowed to happen again. I voted for you Greg and thought you were great, thank you for your hard work some of us really appreciate your talent. All the very best!!

Fair play to him for going on there but in my opinion it wasn’t very good…Now if after the song he ripped off his pants and declared that the only way he got the high notes was because of the fact he was a Eunuch then I’d have a bit more respect.
