9-year-old Malakai Paul breaks down during Britain's Got Talent 2012 audition

Malakai - Britain's Got Talent 2012

9-year-old singer Malakai Paul is seen ending his audition in tears on Britain’s Got Talent tonight.

The school child is by far one of the youngest contestants to ever audition for the show, but takes on a huge song in the form of Listen by Beyonce.

Before going on stage, he explains: “I’ve been singing for about three years and I really enjoy it. I really like Alicia keys and Beyonce songs and Michael Jackson as well.”

Asked what he would do with the £500,000 prize money if he won, Malakai replies: “If I won half a million pounds I’d probably give my family £200 each, I’d still go to school and I’d probably have quite a good birthday as it’s in two months.”

Malakai mum is worried about his nerves.

She confides in the camera: “The one thing I’m afraid about is Malakai getting stage fright. He gets a bit nervous. Usually I’m there with him, but now he’s got to face the music on his own, and that’s what I’m worried about. Hopefully he’ll just sail through it.”

But as he performs, the nerves get to young Malakai, as he begins to cry.

See if he can recover on Britain’s Got Talent 2012 at 8:30PM tonight.
