Saturday was Britain's Got Talent judge Bruno Tonioli's first day on the job and he has already had to apologise to Simon Cowell for making a hilarious blunder.
Bruno got a bit excited and despite having good intentions, did not follow the usual Britain's Got Talent rules.
Bruno was wowed by a dance group called Ghetto Kids, who were aged between five and 13 years old.
They danced their hearts out to a medley of songs, but before they were only half way through their routine, Bruno hit the golden buzzer, sending them through to the live shows.
Bruno did not realise that this was an error, as the buzzers are meant to be pressed after the performance is finished and judges give their feedback.
As he pressed it half way through, the golden confetti fell from the ceiling but the group carried on dancing surrounded by confetti, before jumping around with joy at the end.

Simon Cowell explained the rules to him after his mistake.
Simon explained that this had "never happened before".
Bruno responded: "Oh I'm sorry, I got it wrong."

Alesha Dixon looked shocked when Bruno pressed the buzzer at the wrong time and could be seen gazing over to see Simon's reaction.

Show host Ant McPartlin was heard shouting: "Someone didn't explain the rules of Britain's Got Talent to him."
Bruno further defended himself after the blunder by saying: "I had no idea!"
Tonight's instalment of the show was Bruno's big debut as he replaced former judge David Walliams, who quit the series.
David's exit was revealed in November 2022, ahead of auditions being filmed from January onwards.
