DJ, drag act attempt to win 'Talent'
A drag act and a DJ are among the performers aiming to impress on this week's Britain's Got Talent.

46-year-old Daniel Kahn is a former fork lift truck driver who now performs as Tia Anna. Khan says that he wants to follow in the footsteps of Danny La Rue, Dame Edna Everage and Lilly Savage by playing the Royal Variety Show.

"I have put in hours and hours of work for what will be just three or four minutes, every hour is going to count," he says.

However, Kahn's performance of Mariah Carey's 'Without You' divides the panel. Kelly and Piers back the singer, but Amanda and Simon describe him as "pants".

Meanwhile, Anthony Ghosh attempts to win the panel's approval as DJ Talent. Ghost, who works at his dad's engineering firm, claims to have spent £7,000 on 28 gold teeth.

His performance, which features the chorus hook "You say Britain, I say Talent, Britain's Got Talent, its DJ Talent", impresses the judges. Piers jokes: "I was feeling you, bro."

Cowell agrees that the DJ has potential with the track. "I thought it was horrific but I got to know the chorus in about 30 seconds, and it could in its own horrible way become a hit," he comments.

Before he leaves the stage, Ghosh also secures a dinner date with judge Kelly Brook after promising to take her out for "salad and a bit of chicken". Cowell accepts the invitation on her behalf.

Britain's Got Talent continues at 8pm on ITV1 on Saturday.
