George Sampson's winning routine was mine, claims show reject

Howard Fifer says he came up with the dance

Monday, 9 June 2008

A Britain’s Got Talent reject reckons he thought up the complex moves for George Sampson's winning routine.

Howard Fifer, 28, claims show producers pinched the Singin’ In The Rain dance he used in his audition 8 months ago.

‘My act was break-dancing in the rain,’ he moans. 'George’s routine was exactly the same as mine and I can’t believe it was a coincidence.

'I believe the producers saw me and thought it was a good concept, and wanted George to perform it on the show.’

And Howard reckons he’s got proof he was ripped off.

‘They still have my audition on tape and I’d like them to release it,’ he tells the News Of The World.

‘I know I can’t dance anywhere near as well as George, and I wish him well. But I feel I had my chance to shine taken away from me.’

A show spokesman insists there was no foul play: 'Any similarities in performances are purely coincidental.'
