Ah! So cheating and illegal deception is all OK as long as you like the act and are an animal lover?
People really need to disconnect their feelings for real legal issues. People were deliberately misled and money was involve in the voting. That is a serious law break. |

I dont see what the problem was if Matisse wasnt good with heights and they swapped to Chase just for the tightrope bit. Its not as if they used CGI to show the dog walking or something.
![]() Unless it wasnt known at the start Chase would be used as well.

Why?
It's their fault for paying to vote and not using the free votes on the app. |

It is not their fault as some voters were happy to pay to use a phone, to vote, but being taken for a ride in this scam is different.

When she put one dog in the bottom one side, acted like the same dog had crawled up and along the ropes and taking out the original dog from the other side. I don't know how more simple it can be put. She deliberately went out of her way to make it look like the same, just one, dog. It also clearly shows her intentions by not bringing on the extra dog at the end to carry on the deception.

I agree i don't think there can be any argument that she wanted the viewers and judges to think Matisse had walked the tightrope you could tell from the way the routine was set up plus as you have said not bringing the 2nd dog on stage. I am not as annoyed as some about the whole thing but I was a bit disappointed as I felt it was unnecessary. To argue that there wasn't some deceit going on as some seem to be doing is ridiculous as there clearly was.

Of course, should a losing competitor wish to sue for the prize money, that would be an entirely different thing. |

But is that the same as "led to believe"? I think it's arguable. Maybe she didn't feel she needed to say there were two dogs, in what is simply a piece of entertainment. The important questions are did she present it well, and were we entertained, and I think the answer to both is "yes".

Not at all, even went to see Johnathan and Charlotte in concert last year, good luck to anyone who won BGT fair and square, but if I found out Johnathan was miming to a record well.....
There are a few acts, usually bands who don't mime, but most solo/duo singers do to a certain extent |

No it wasn't a troupe of dogs! There was three and two you saw and still decided to vote! You have no proof whatsoever that there were more dogs!
You spent £1- is that really worth getting hysterical about? |

I watch the show and it doesn't cost me a penny ... It's only the dumbo's that actually put their money up front to vote for this stuff that enables Cowell to pay out the winner .... That's why he's a zillionaire and you're begging for your £2 back ... Wise up for God's sake ...!!! |

No, because the competitor who signed the BGT contract was Jules, not Matisse. And that competitor won with her act, fair and square.

You are an idiot. I will probably get banned for saying but I don't care. You are ridiculous.
Some people on here are making it up as they go along. One user said the act was cruel then claimed to have voted twice and wants a refund!!

Simon takes the blame
Simon has said he and the show take the blame, we shouldn't blame Jules.
Everything he said is here http://goo.gl/yCbkHi |
