The audience of America’s Got Talent was stunned to see judge Simon Cowell passionately belting out a song on stage but the performance got a standing ovation.
Leaked from the auditions from Episode Two of Season 17, the YouTube video sees Chris Ume and Thomas Graham from a company called Metaphysic introduce themselves to the judges. They are joined by former contestant Daniel Emmet. A large camera then is wheeled on stage and then the hyperreal, deep fake technology kicks in.
The episode, which is airing this week, will be a first for the talent show not least because, if the team goes through, who knows who will appear on stage.
Ume rose to fame after creating a Fake Tom Cruise TikTok account using Deep Fake technology and the talents of Tom Cruise impersonator Miles Fisher. The account has 3.4 million followers.
