Britain's Got Talent favourite Kathleen Jenkins has confessed she hopes to bag the talent show title - despite being booted out last night.

In The Sun's Online's exclusive video, the Welsh singing wonder revealed she had her "fingers crossed" she could win the show on Saturday night, perhaps suggesting she is keeping something under wraps.

Her huge hint, made as she entered the ITV studios on London's Southbank, will be welcome news for her legions of fans left outraged at her premature exit.

As the bubbly newlywed walked into the building, a cheery photographer asked: "How are you sweetheart? Are you going to win it?"

Kathleen has dropped a huge hint she will be the show's wildcard

Wearing a snazzy zebra print coat over a cute black and red dress, Kathleen could be heard replying: "Fingers crossed," before she burst into a giggle and mimicked the hand gesture.

Last night, choir 100 Voices of Gospel were crowned winners of the live semi final while mother-and-son act Mel and Jamie secured second place after claiming the public vote.

Kathleen was revealed to have the third highest number of public votes after BGT judges took the second place spot to a tie.

After her defeat, she fought back the tears as she thanked her fans and told presenters Ant and Dec: "I'm so grateful for this opportunity - thanks very much."

Yet Kathleen, who wowed during the audition rounds with her rendition of Wild Horses by The Rolling Stones, has now sparked speculation she has been given a second chance.

A Wildcard place for Saturday's final remains up for grabs and traders have made her the frontrunner with odds of 4/7.

After last night's action-packed episode, where she belted out One Day I'll Fly Away, Kathleen's army of fans took to Twitter to vent their fury.

One wrote: "Kathleen Jenkins was robbed! So much better than the mom and her son! Hope she comes back as a wildcard!," while another added: "Love Kathleen Jenkins gutted for her."

Another clearly backing Kathleen posted: "Gutted @katmjenkins isn't in the final of Britain's Got Talent. Definitely going to vote for her to be the wildcard."

The cleaner, who now works at a builders' merchant, also had the backing of her former colleagues at holiday venue Pontins with one writing: "Everybody at Pontins are so proud of you @katmjenkins you've shown the nation what a talent you have! Can't wait to see you!"

Kathleen was all smiles today as she chatted to This Morning co-host Rylan on the ITV daytime show.

Meanwhile cheeky chappie Wayne Woodward, who will sing on tonight's live BGT semi final, showed his flirty side on ITV show Lorraine.

The singer insisted on giving the host a kiss as he refused to divulge whether he was single.
