Simon Cowell is facing a ban on chewing gum on the set of Britain’s Got Talent due to his habit of leaving gum residue under his desk. Producers are making efforts to curb his gum-chewing behavior by asking him to chew elsewhere, but given Simon’s influence on the show, it may be challenging to enforce the ban. Recent reports revealed that Simon was unaware of gum stuck to his trousers during filming, highlighting the need for stricter measures.
According to sources, dealing with Simon’s gum-chewing has been a headache for producers, as he is known for chewing loudly and causing annoyance. The ban on gum extends to other Britain’s Got Talent personalities, including Amanda Holden, Alesha Dixon, and KSI. The ongoing season of the show, which premiered on February 21st, featured a daring act that left judges and the audience stunned.
During the performance, one of the acts involved using hooks in various body parts to perform aerial stunts, including suspending a performer with hooks through nipples and earlobes. Co-host Declan Donnelly issued a warning about the dangerous nature of the act, urging viewers not to attempt similar stunts at home. Despite the shocking display, the act received a standing ovation from the audience, showcasing the diversity of talent on the show.
Judges Alesha Dixon and Amanda Holden provided contrasting feedback on the act, with Alesha describing it as difficult to watch yet brilliant, while Amanda praised its uniqueness. The act received mixed votes from the judges, ultimately leaving the decision to the audience, who enthusiastically supported the performers, securing their spot in the next round.
