Simon Cowell left fuming as he gets awkwardly heckled by audience member on Britain’s Got Talent
A BRAVE audience member dared to take on media mogul Simon Cowell as he heckled the star during the latest round of Britain’s Got Talent auditions.
The incident occurred just minuets into the show when the first act took to the stage to perform for the judges.
As Accordion Ryan was introducing himself to the judges, he told them he was a US native.
He went onto explain that he was now living in Vienna where he worked as an English teaching assistant.
Ryan had jetted to the UK purely to take on the BGT judges and to show off his skill.
Questioning the act, Simon said: “So how did you get from there to there to here?”
Spotting a moment to knock Simon down a peg or two, one audience member decided to abruptly shout out to heckle the judge.
He shouted: “On a plane.”
This sent the audience into disarray as they burst into laughter as show judge Amanda could be heard cackling loudly beside Simon.
Ryan did not know where to look as he was left open-mouthed by the audience member.
Simon attempted to quickly shrug the disruption off as he said into his microphone: “I know by plane!”
Moving on from the interruption, Simon carried on chatting to Ryan as though nothing had happened in a tense moment.
The incident kicked off the third round of auditions on the popular ITV programme.
Alongside Simon on the panel are mainstay judges Amanda Holden and Alesha Dixon as well as new judge, ex-Strictly star Bruno Tonioli.
