Ichikawa Koikuchi – Comedian – Team Howie Mandel – BRITAIN’S GOT TALENT S16
The BGT wikipedia entry describes the 42 year old Japanese native as a “Flatulist.” OK then. Weirdly, he advanced to the semi-finals where he was eliminated. According to the BGT wiki, Simon and Bruno Tonioli buzzed him, But then Simon retracted his buzzer. But alas, his farting shtick was buzzed off during the semi’s. He has auditioned for, and was buzzed off, various Got Talent shows, including from Spain, Italy, Asia and France.
Junior New System – Dance Group – Team Mel B. – AGT S13

Loren Allred – Singer – Team Simon Cowell – BRITAIN’S GOT TALENT S15
NBC dropped a preview of Loren’s audition last week. Watch it HERE. Loren recorded “Never Enough” from The Greatest Showman movie for the soundtrack. An actress lip-synced the song in the movie. So while the song became popular, Loren got little attention for it. Loren’s appearances on BGT and AGT are an attempt to remedy her relative anonymity. Loren also competed on The Voice season 3 in 2012.
