[Smells Like News] Jamie Pugh: Britain's Got More Talent
Wow. Britain truly does got talent.
The entire world knows about Susan Boyle by now, but a couple other contenders have emgered for this season's Britain's Got Talent title: Hollie Steel and Shaheen Jafargholi.
We can now add Jamie Pugh to that list.
Appearing visibly nervous on stage, Pugh is the male version of Boyle: he's older, normal looking and even belted out a song from Les Miserables. Listen to him sounds like a regular Jean Valjean during this rendition of "Bring Him Home."
Tragically, Pugh's wife Tracey passed away from a brain tumor 10 years ago. The aspiring singer was left to raise their young son Callum on his own.
Reportedly, Jamie refused to mention this sad fact in his original bio for Britain's Got Talent because he didn't want to receive any sympathy votes. Gotta hand it to the guy for that.
