Former Britain’s Got Talent judge set to rejoin Simon Cowell in surprise appearance at Saturday’s semi-final
KSI is set to come back as a judge on Britain’s Got Talent this week.
He will return to join Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli on this Saturday’s live semi-final show on ITV.
The Sun revealed he would also be appearing on the show’s live final on May 31, at the Hammersmith Apollo in West London.
KSI will be taking to the stage to perform his new single, Catch Me If You Can.
A TV insider said: “KSI was a huge hit when he appeared as a judge in the audition rounds.
“And fans have been calling for him to make another appearance on the show – so now they’ll get two chances to see him again.”
KSI took part in BGT last year during the audition stage of the show which were held at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool.
He stood in for Bruno Tonioli when he was briefly filming Dancing with the Stars in the US and for Simon Cowell who had to leave following the tragic death of One Direction star, Liam Payne.
KSI is also expected to be signed up as a judge on next year’s show as well after he proved so popular with viewers – and brought with him a huge social media platform too.
“KSI was a breath of fresh air, so bosses are thrilled to be inviting him back. Fans will be equally overjoyed,” explained the insider.
Earlier in the month, The Sun revealed that BGT viewers made a furious demand that Bruno be AXED from the programme and replaced with KSI.
Whilst it does not appear that Bruno will be going anywhere, fans of KSI look set to be in for a treat later in the series.
Aside from keeping busy on BGT, people were hoping KSI would make his boxing return this weekend at Misfits 21 after he pulled out of his fight with Dillon Danis in late March. was set to be his first in-ring appearance for over a year.
He has not fought since he lost to Tommy Fury in October 2023 and won his last won a boxing match, a bout against Thomas Oliveira in January 2023.
