The teacher and full-time mum took to the stage with a rendition of Something Beautiful by – but within seconds, Simon put his hand in the air and stopped the performance.

He then asked the singer if she had a second song choice.

Simon said: If you're going to do this, then this obviously means a lot to you, then you've really got to stop overthinking this and just let go.

“That was kind of like a polite audition.”

She replied: “I will fight for this.”

Louise then belted out ‘s hit ballad And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going, which was met with cheers from the audience.

The judges were also equally chuffed with her second song choice.

But some fans were convinced it was a set-up.

One wrote: “These singing auditions on Britain’s Got Talent are so set up sometimes when Simon stops them mid song and ask them to sing something else and they sing again and they’re amazing.”

A second posted: “Ah this old chestnut.”

A third commented: “I couldn’t even hear her for the noisy audience, and it was a set up too, seen dozens like her before.”

This person said: “The fake audience screaming noise on always unnecessarily annoys me so much, especially when they cut to the crowd and you can literally see nobody doing anything. Is the original clapping from the audience not deemed worthy enough so they have to fake it?

After the audition, said she “loved the song”, saying it was “powerful”.

Alesha Dixon praised her audition saying: “I could feel you fighting your way through that song.”

admitted she was talented but said: “We have had better singers,” to which she said: “I'll take any advice.”

During her audition, Louise revealed she auditioned last year but didn't get through.

But luckily this time Louise was sent through to the next round.

“I understand why. Since then my singing has gone to the next level – I have been practising day in, day out to get back out there. It just shows how determined I have been to impress the judges,” she said.

She added to the Mirror: “This year is my moment, it was my time, and the stars all aligned. I came back unrecognisable and I wanted to audition in my new happy era. I was not the same person back then. This time, it's my time to shine.”
