The group Improv Everywhere has applied for the ongoing edition of “”. At the beginning of the casting, only a man appeared on the stage claiming to be Wesley Plumber, who announced that he would play the piano. The 36-year-old looked clearly nervous, he admitted in an interview with the jurors that he does not deal with music professionally. The participant announced that he professionally works for a small hotel chain, which he supports in finding technological solutions. Wesley admitted that if he won the top prize on “Got Talent” he would quit his job and take up acting full-time.
Howie Mandel mocked the ‘Got Talent’ contestants
The artist performed a cover of the group ABBA. He played a romantic version of “Take a Chance on Me”, but the audience didn’t like it and they booed. Howie Mandel also reacted negatively – he pressed the red button, which was supposed to stop Plumber from playing further. Suddenly, a discussion broke out among the audience.
One of the viewers grabbed the microphone and sang: “give him one more chance”. It turned out that the audience’s reactions were part of the performance, and there are other members of Improv Everywhere sitting on the chairs. Even one of the “cameramen” present in the studio turned out to be a participant.
Simon Cowell was persuaded by the group, as was Heidi Klum, but Sofia Vergara was adamant. She noted that she had guessed that something was wrong and the performance was not too surprising for her. However, Howie Mandel’s reaction caused the greatest controversy.
“I have to be honest with you. It reminds me of a party gag. What can you do in the next episodes? You can’t surprise us anymore,” he said. The group protested and stated that they could not tell about plans for the next stages today, because it would spoil the surprise.
The viewers of “Got Talent” were furious with the juror. “You should replace him”
“Okay, then I will surprise you. I will say … no” – replied the malicious juror. The way Mandel mocked the participants outraged the viewers of the show. Critical voices towards the star appeared on Twitter.
“Howie Mandel, what’s wrong with you?”, “I lost a lot of respect for Mandel after this show,” the comments read. Fans of “Got Talent” emphasize that the juror’s words were very rude. Why does Howie Mandel have to be such an asshole? There were even voices that the juror should be replaced, and some of the viewers decided that they would no longer watch the program with the celebrity on the screen.
