SAGT: The Final Six

The SA's Got Talent Top 6 were finalised on Wednesday night (11 November) when the last two places were filled - by a young dancer and an opera-singing duo.

Twelve-year-old hip hop/contemporary dancer Kalon Badenhorst from Johannesburg and singers Willem and Louis van der Merwe from Stellenbosch were voted through to the grand finale in the last semi-final of the contest, on Wednesday night.

They join beatboxer George Avakian, guitarist Louwtjie Rothman, hip hop dancer Darren Rajbal and singer Cleo Filander in the final on Thursday night, where they stand a chance of winning the R250,000 grand prize.

Kalon Badenhorst received the most public votes and automatically went through to the final. The next two contestants with the highest votes were brothers Willem and Louis van der Merwe and "keke" horn player Gregory Mabusela.

The judges ultimately chose the singing duo. The gig was up for the remainder of the semi-finalists: all-girl hip hop dance crew Cadence; Ingrid & Yvonne and their ridiculously bad dancing dogs Ruby and Dezi (no bones for them tonight); singer Julian Hepburn; and juggler Louis Cason.

The Top 6 is thus as follows:

George Avakian (beatboxer)
Louwtjie Rothman (guitar maestro)
Darren Rajbal (hip hop dancer)
Cleo Filander (singer)
Kalon Badenhorst (dancer)
Willem and Louis van der Merwe (singers)

In Thursday night's final the Top 6 will perform for the public vote only - the judges have no say in who the ultimate winner is.

The SA's Got Talent Grand Finale will be broadcast live on SABC2 on Thursday 12 November from 19h30 - 20h30. The winner will be announced in the results show, from 21h30 - 22h00.

Get your predictions in now - who's going to win SA's Got Talent?

That kid was awesome. But the rest... Why have such an uneven set of semi-finals. Last night largely sucked.

Last night was pretty sucky compared to Monday and Tuesday (how many bad double entendres can one make about balls?!?!?!) but the right acts ended up going through. Let's hope they get Cleo's mike on for the final! What was up with the guest act tho' ??? Big time rubbish IMHO.

This opera guy, William, looks like he wants to cry when he sings, shame, he looks like a good guy. I hope the beat boxer wins or Darren.

The competition is really between Cleo, Kalon, Darren and George. They are really good and so entertaining

I think Darren will win, a part of me now really wishes that he was not deaf, and Cleo was not a child. In that way it woul be a "normal" competition, with pure fauvorites winning and no sympathy or adoration. But I guess being who they are, are what makes them to be part of this competition.
