This audition is an absolute masterclass in how to instantly win over a tough audience.
He took a song that absolutely everyone knows and turned it into an interactive comedy show.
Walking onto the stage, he gave the judges no indication of what he was about to do.
He simply let the suspense build during the long instrumental intro.
Then, with absolutely zero enthusiasm, he yelled his one-word lyric into the microphone.
The juxtaposition of the lively music and his robotic delivery was pure comedy.
The audience immediately caught on to the brilliant joke and joined in.
Soon, the entire auditorium was clapping and waiting for their turn to shout the lyrics.
The best part of the entire segment was watching the judges’ genuine reactions.
Simon Cowell, expecting a terrible vocal performance, was pleasantly surprised by the twist.
He couldn’t help but laugh and happily play along with the rest of the excited crowd.
Experience the hilarious performance for yourself below.
