Final auditions - Recap

Tonight is the end of the auditions and the talent has one more chance to impress the judges. As the judges enter, the crowd cheers. Howie uses a stunt double to walk through the crowd and hug everyone while he sneaks out front. They take their seats to await the first of the last auditions.

First up is “Avery and the Calico Hearts”, a trio of young girls who want to sing. They start and sing “Baby” by Justin Beiber. They are sweet and get the crowd cheering. Sharon says that it so darn cute. Howie says that it was like someone playing the song a little fast. Piers says that it may not be the right year for them. Howie says yes, Piers says no and Sharon puts the girls through to Vegas to give them another chance to impress.

Next up is Kevin Shelly and he says that he is going to break boards with his forehead. Nick comes out to help him. His head starts to bleeding after the 35th board. Kevin says that it happens. Howie tells that he wants to see more of him hurting himself. Sharon says that it is for the martial arts shows and not Vegas. Piers says that he liked it and agrees with Howie on this one. Kevin gets sent to Vegas.

This sets off a montage of great acts that impress the judges including a great singer, a juggler, and a singing group that impresses the audience and judges and get their ticket to the next round.

J. Chris Newberg is next and he says that he is a singing comedian. He starts and after the first quick song and joke, Piers buzzes. He finishes his a skit and Howie tells that Chris doesn’t have to worry when Piers doesn’t get his humor and says yes to Vegas. Sharon agrees and Kevin gets his ticket intot he next round on to Vegas.

Next act is King Diamond. The judges buzz him the moment he starts singing and they vote quickly. Howie says that his singing was not good at all and he gets a quick rejection. However, Nick comes out and says that he just needed another Temptation on stage and gets the crowd laughing and tries to get him to do some choreography. They escort him off the stage.

Next up is “Chicago’s Ultimate Tumblers”, a tumbling act. They come out and start their act and it is flawless until one of the guys knock the girl off. However, the girl gets back up without any problem and they finish their act. Howie says that he liked it and says that it needed to be slick and it is hard to do. Piers says that he liked the rawness of it and they vote and put them through.

Next is Manchego, a guy in a robe. His act is taking off layers and layers of underwear. All three buzz when he takes off the final layer and shows off his “stuff”. They all tell that it is a no for them. Manchego leaves his underwear on the stage and they take a sweeper broom and get them off the stage.

This sets off a montage of bad acts that include a bad opera singer, a crazy balloon artist and a 55-year-old Shakira wannabe. All acts get the quick rejection and no ticket to Vegas this time around.

The last group to perform is “Meet Me At Fairfax and 3rd”, a duo act of an 81-year-old and a 67-year old man. They come out on stage and the singing is horrible, but the 67-year-old makes the crowd laugh when he stands on his head on the chair. Piers says that it was ludicrous and entertaining. Howie says that he loved it and thought it was funny. They get through to Vegas. Nick comes out and tries to stand on his head.
