At his first audition on Britain\u2019s Got Talent, he was described as a \u2018mini Michael Buble\u2019 after wowing the judges with his rendition of \u201cYou Make Me Feel so Young\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>David Walliams even compared Ellis to a \u2018little version of him\u2019 and Alesha said she felt \u2018relaxed watching someone so young perform\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight, Ellis returned to the BGT stage with a performance of &#8216;Cry Me A River&#8217; that he hopes will not just win over the judges once more, but also connect with the British voting public in order to book his place in the Britain&#8217;s Got Talent live final.<\/p>\n<p>These are the judges comments:<\/p>\n<p>David Walliams: Very hard to judge a member of your own family. I think we witnessed the birth of a star tonight. You are going to be a huge star Ellis so well done!<\/p>\n<p>Alesha Dixon: That was such a confident performance from someone so small. I think you need to work a little bit on your mic control and bring light and shade to the performance. You are on your way to becoming a star.<\/p>\n<p>Amanda Holden: It was such a big entrance and I loved it. Your audition and tonight\u2019s performance hand in hand were fantastic.<\/p>\n<p>Simon Cowell: For a 12 year old\u2026.I think you are a born little entertainer. You loved every minute of that. Other than this horrible resemblance to David\u2026which is so weird\u2026I think you came from the auditions with a better song. You are going to do great tonight.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/bgt\/files\/2014\/05\/ellis.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/bgt\/files\/2014\/05\/ellis.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"ellis chick\" width=\"570\" height=\"349\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7324\" srcset=\"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/bgt\/files\/2014\/05\/ellis.png 570w, http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/bgt\/files\/2014\/05\/ellis-300x183.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-0466605792016836\";\n\/* auditions 300x250, created 9\/6\/10 *\/\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"7469702309\";\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\n\/\/-->\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div class=\"linkwithin_hook\" id=\"http:\/\/thetalentzone.co.uk\/musictv\/bgt\/7306\/ellis-chick-sings-cry-me-a-river-on-wednesdays-semifinals-of-britains-got-talent-2014\/\"><\/div><script>\n<!-- \/\/LinkWithinCodeStart\nvar linkwithin_site_id = 1805371;\nvar linkwithin_div_class = \"linkwithin_hook\";\n\/\/LinkWithinCodeEnd -->\n<\/script>\n<script src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/widget.js\"><\/script>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/pixel.png\" alt=\"Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...\" style=\"border: 0\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>12 year-old Ellis Chick is currently studying at a performing arts school in Bristol.
