Ugandans will always remember the 16th season of Britain’s Got Talent thanks to the Triplets Ghetto Kids. After being taken straight to the semifinals during auditions by Italian choreographer, ballroom and Latin dancer, and television personality, Bruno Tonioli when he hit the Golden Buzzer, the dance group didn’t disappoint last night during their second performance.
The Ghetto Kids have once again brought pride to Uganda as they secured a well-deserved spot in Britain’s Got Talent final. The energetic performers are set to showcase their incredible skills in an eagerly anticipated final performance.
During their mesmerizing performance on Wednesday, the Ghetto Kids put on African attire, dancing on a customized stage. They showcased a typical local Ugandan village homestead and the group put on a memorable performance.
The joy on their faces was evident when they were announced as the winners of that stage.
