Paul Potts

Emilio Fina Dept: I hate to be derivative, but it was hard not to be reminded of the former cellphone salesman who won Britain s Got Talent in 2007 when Emilio Fina performed in Winnipeg, according to The Star. That included his orange vest, protective headset and aircraft marshalling wands and we ve had a Paul Potts moment on Canada s Got Talent. For starters, he sang Nessun dorma, the opera aria that put Potts on the path to fame. For another, although he s better looking than Potts, Fina certainly didn t put you in mind of an opera singer: he took the stage dressed in his work clothes for guiding planes to takeoffs and landings.
