BRITAIN’s Got Talent star Henry Gallagher was 12 when he appeared on the show back in 2015 – and he looks very different seven years later.

The cute kid from Wigan took the talent show by storm in 2015 – but narrowly missed out on a place in the final.

During series nine he sang and played guitar along to his own song in front of the judges.

‘Lightning’ was about a girl that he was scared to ask out, and David Walliams remarked: “She’s gonna have to go out with him now!”

Alesha Dixon said: “I think the song could be a massive hit for him.”

He sang the upbeat ballad again in the next round, but Amanda Holden said she’d “quite like to hear (him) sing something else as well”.

He lost out on competing in the final after failing to win the judges’ vote – despite getting more public votes than their golden buzzer act, Entity Allstars.

Calum, Boyband and Entity Allstars were the buzzer acts to make the final that year – and they lost out to a dog.

Series nine was won by dog act Jules O’Dwyer and Matisse.
