Fans were not pleased with an America’s Got Talent contestant’s nearly nude act, but it was supported by Simon for an unexpected reason

Tonikaku’s quirky performances include removing all of his clothes except his underwear.

From there, he performs a series of poses which make him appear to be naked, although actually still wearing the underwear.

After reaching last year’s Britain’s Got Talent final as the wildcard act, Tonikaku fell short of winning the grand prize, finishing 11th.

Fellow comedian Viggo Venn was crowned the winner and claimed a spot at the Royal Variety Performance.

Almost a year since last year’s BGT finale aired, however, Tonikaku has made a surprise return to screens – but in a brand new setting.

In keeping with his previous Got Talent attempt, the comedian has now tried his luck on America’s Got Talent.

Simon is a judge on the American counterpart as well, where he’s joined by Howie Mandel, Heidi Klum and Sofia Vergara.

Much like before, Tonikaku’s latest audition saw him do ‘naked poses’ in various guises.

This included an American football player, a basketball player and film character John Wick, famously played by Keanu Reeves.

Afterwards, Simon told the panel he “just had a feeling” that they “would love” Tonikaku.

Fellow judge Howie replied: “You know me and you know my sensibility. This is you, Toni, I’m going crazy for you.”

The act proved a hit with the America’s Got Talent judges and audience on the day, with Simon declaring Tonikaku had “4,000 yeses.”

Taking to X, formerly Twitter, a viewer shared: “So ridiculous it was brilliant! Tony had me at “Hellooooo, Hello America.”

Another added: “The end was so funny.”

Meanwhile, the current series of Britain’s Got Talent is nearing its endgame.

The live semi-final heats began on Monday, with a variety of acts already having qualified for Sunday’s final.

At present, the line-up includes singer Sydnie Christmas, magician Jack Rhodes and jump rope group Haribow, among others.

Britain’s Got Talent airs on ITV1 and is available on ITVX.
