History
Before forming Flawless, Marlon Wallen was a member of street dance group Kruel Intentions (also known as just K.I.). Kruel Intentions took part in the London Jump Off in 2004 and 2005. During the 2005 Jump Off, K.I. battled Swift Moves, the members of which would later go on to form Diversity.

2009: Britain's Got Talent
In 2009, Flawless took part in the third series of Britain's Got Talent. They auditioned in London shortly before Diversity. Amanda Holden stated they were 'jaw droppingly outstanding', while Piers Morgan called the group 'electrifying'. They received three yeses from the judges.

In the Semi-finals(flawless), they were the last act of heat 2 to perform. They won the public vote and went straight through to the final, where they would face fellow street dance group Diversity and Susan Boyle, both of whom had gone through in the previous heat.

By the time of the final, Susan Boyle was believed to be the favorite to win. Flawless and Diversity saw each other as their main competition. Piers Morgan described it as the ultimate dance-off between the two best dance groups he had seen to that date on Britain's Got Talent.

Flawless started the final with Diversity as the second to last act. Diversity won on the night, with the voting summary later revealing that Flawless had come 8th.
