Audition
Kevin Johnson's audition consisted of controlling through ventriloquism two bird puppets and then performing a skit called "Godzilla Theater" in which the birds and he appeared to have had their mouths moving out-of-sync with his audio. Piers Morgan buzzed the act, but he later retracted his buzz after watching the act. Piers, Brandy Norwood, and David Hasselhoff all voted "Yes," sending the act to the Semifinals.
