Jasper was one of just 60 contestants asked to appear in the show featuring winners, finalists and the fans' favourites from across the Got Talent franchise.

And his star performance has given Jasper, who will be 17 next month, a taste for a career either in front of the camera or behind the scenes.

His proud mum Clare said: "It sounds like a cliche but this is the kind of stuff that dreams are made of. This was a fantastic opportunity for Jasper and we still can't quite believe it has happened."

And Jasper said his American debut was ‘the most exciting thing I’ve done’ adding: “I can’t wait for everyone to see my performance. The talent was incredible and I can’t believe I was asked to be part of a competition involving the best talent from around the world. And Simon Cowell was really nice again, he isn’t as scary as people think.”,

Jasper and his mum and little sister, Izzy (11) were flown over to LA for the show which featured several other UK Britain's Got Talent favourites including BGT 2022 winner Axel Blake and runner up, the young ventriloquist Jamie Leahy and Chuck.
