The group's very first audition left a lasting impression on Italian choreographer, ballroom and Latin dancer, and television personality Bruno Tonioli. In a show of admiration, he bestowed upon them the Golden Buzzer, propelling them forward in the competition.

Dancing on a stage specially designed to resemble a traditional Ugandan village, the Ghetto Kids delivered a performance that will be etched in viewers' memories during the semi-finals.

In the end, Viggo Venn claimed the coveted title of Britain's Got Talent 2023 champion, taking home a substantial cash prize of PS250,000 (approximately Sh43,000,000).

13-year-old dancer Lilliana Clifton secured second place with her astounding talent, while 14-year-old magician Cillian O'Connor earned the third spot on the podium.

Founded in 2014 by Daouda Kavuma, Ghetto Kids is a music group composed of children hailing from the Katwe slums in Kampala, Uganda.

The group rose to prominence after their mesmerizing appearance in Eddy Kenzo's captivating music video for 'Sitya Loss', capturing the hearts of viewers worldwide.

Embracing their roots and proudly acknowledging their upbringing in the Kampala ghettos, this talented ensemble adopted the name 'The Ghetto Kids', symbolizing their authenticity and honoring their background.
