A TikTok vlogger has shared a shocking revelation about her experience on Britain's Got Talent as a child - as she told viewers that the show is looks nothing like it appears on TV. 

Posting to the platform under her handle @chloecotterelll, the content creator recounted her 'insane' 'four-stage' auditioning process, which took place 'about ten years ago' when she was a keen young music fan.

The influencer claimed that the experience is 'literally nothing' as it appears in the broadcast, particularly when it comes to the waiting room where hopefuls are interviewed by excited presenters.

'You know that big waiting room where they do all the interviews for the live shows, that is just not what it's like in real life,' she told followers in a video from last year.

'The room is absolutely huge for one. It is ridiculously loud.'

A TikTok vlogger has shared a shocking revelation about her experience on Britain's Got Talent as a child - as she told viewers that the show is looks nothing like it appears on TV

She also unveiled that - unlike the TV-portrayed perception that contestants all chat with one another in the venue, 'you don't mix with anyone except someone who sits next to you'.

'It's just a weird, weird thing,' she added. 

Chloe said it started off with an 'online interview process' where applicants had to submit a video - where she opted for a rendition of the One Direction hit Live While We're Young.

Although the social media creator said she enjoyed singing, she admitted that she was far from an accomplished songstress - making the whole experience 'embarrassing'.

After her initial submission, Chloe had to make the trek to Emirates Stadium in north London - the home of Arsenal Football Club - for 'the next few stages'.

'And they in themselves were so long, a full day and a bit,' she added.

'Even the queue outside the Emirates stadium was ridiculously long and it's literally like noting what it looks on TV,' the TikToker revealed.

Posting to the platform under her handle @chloecotterelll , the content creator recounted her 'insane' 'four-stage' auditioning process, which took place 'about ten years ago' when she was a keen young music fan

'You go from room to room... it kind of depends what room you go into, but there's like three of four people sat on the other side of the table - a lot of them were men - and they have a box like in the center of the table.

'It was like a stereo box, you put your CD in and then sing. They barely talk to you, you walk in, they ask who you are...'

Although the reality behind the preliminary auditions came as a surprise to viewers, they were seemingly unsatisfied, as they were eager for Chloe to post the original video of her audition in response.

One user wrote: 'Video reveal please'. 

A second added: 'Can you show us the audition?'

A third user - who said they have worked on more recent editions of the show - wrote: 'Still the long process [and it is now held at ExCeL, in east London].'

A fourth remarked: 'Can I please see the video of you singing to One Direction?'

With a new instalment of Britain's Got Talent upon us, Britain's Got Talent head judge Simon Cowell has claimed that he's already 'worked out who will win' this series.

The English entrepreneur, 64, teased there is 'one person everyone gravitated towards' but judges managed to keep it tight-lipped.

'This year, when we were discussing the finals, we went round the room and said who we think might win and there was one person everyone gravitated towards,' he reveals,' he told The Mirror. 

But as the judge wisely remarked 'You can just never predict who the public will love,' - he didn't shy away from admitting his excitement and curiosity to see who the crowd will pick as their winner.
