After wowing the judges of "Britain's Got
Talent" Series 7, an 11-year-old Filipina girl has advanced to the live finals
round of the popular singing show on Monday.
Arisxandra Libantino from Aspley, Nottingham,

David Walliams and Alesha Dixon during her audition when she sang Jennifer
Hudson’s "One Night Only" from the Broadway show-turned-movie Dreamgirls.
The UK’s Daily Mirror
quoted one judge as saying Arisxandra’s talent should be shared with the
world.
"You blew the roof off the joint. Simon made
a point earlier about kids being on the show but if you have a talent like
yours, you've got to share that with the world!" Williams said, after giving the
singing sensation a standing ovation.
Holden agreed, telling Arisxandra, "You tore the place up."
