Simon Cowell left stunned after mass walkout during BGT auditions

The head judge was cut off before he could slam them

It’s not very often that Simon Cowell is left speechless but that’s what happened during Britain’s Got Talent tryouts in Blackpool.

The head judge allegedly started criticizing a choir during an audition and the entire group just walked out.

Singing group Dale Divas sang Adele’s huge hit Rolling In The Deep, but Simon just didn’t like it at all.

After getting buzzed for singing a second song they stormed off and refused to listen to Mr Cowell.

He started to give them his thoughts, saying: “That was one of the worst things I’ve ever seen in my life.”

Simon was cut off mid-sentence though as choir leader Annie walked out and the entire group followed!

According to The Mirror, the 37 members of the choir marched off stage, leaving Simon open-mouthed.

Annie blamed the poor performance on producers, saying: “We wanted to show our fun-loving, creative spirit but it was changed by producers.”

However, it wasn’t only Simon that didn’t like the act.

Alesha Dixon said: “I understand what you stand for and I really do appreciate that, however, if you want to step on stage and be on TV, it’s brutal.

“The audience can’t lie, you didn’t set us on fire. It wasn’t good enough.”

Maybe next time ladies!
