YouTuber KSI - who's a member of the Sidemen - is set to join the panel on Britain's Got Talent as a guest judge in the new series, which is expected to launch early next year

KSI said: “I’m so excited to be a guest judge for Britain’s Got Talent. When I got the call up, I couldn’t believe it. I remember watching old BGT episodes and going from being amazed to laughing my arse off. I’m buzzing to see all the fresh new talent, and I’ll be sure to leave a mark!”

The judging panel for 2025 remains unchanged, with Simon Cowell again joined by Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon and Bruno Tonioli - although KSI will step in for Tonioli for a handful of Blackpool audition dates while he is in the US filming Dancing With The Stars.
