SINGER Linda Mudzenda last night stopped the BGT judges in their tracks with an emotional performance that earned her the show's seventh golden buzzer.

Zimbabwe-born Linda blew everyone away as she belted out You Say by Lauren Daigle.

Judge Alesha Dixon - who frequently hit the Top 10 in the noughties with girl group Mis-Teeq was so moved she sent Linda straight into the finals.

The 21-year-old children's support worker dedicated the performance to mum Susan, saying she wants to win so she can give her a better life.

She said: "The reason I'm here, working so hard, is because of my mum. She sacrificed a lot for me to live my passion of music.

"So she's the first person I'd thank with the prize money. A lot would go to making sure she can relax for the rest of her life."
