The Naked Magicians were magicians from Season 12 of America's Got Talent. It was eliminated in the Judge Cuts.
Background[]
The "Naked Magicians" show features magic, mirth and more than a touch of mayhem. Left without sleeves or pockets, The Naked Magicians' saucy magic is baffling, bringing a new meaning to "now you see it".
This boisterous R-rated magic show, strips away the top hats and capes, promising full frontal illusions. Good magicians don't need sleeves and great magicians don't need pants. This show proves just that. [1]
As co-star of The Naked Magicians, Christopher Wayne is proud owner of a long tongue and an entertainment résumé. Originally known as the "clothed" magician on Channel 10’s long-running kids TV program, Christopher then became the first Australian magician in TV history to have his own TV series, "More Than Magic" which aired in Australia, New Zealand, England, and USA. Christopher also spent 4 years as the head comedy writer for Queensland’s favorite breakfast radio show “B105” and continues regular guest spots on several radio stations in Australia.
Getting his gear off has always come naturally to Mike Tyler, who was a competitive swimmer competing at the National Championships and Pan Pacific Games. After attending school under scholarship, he completed a university degree but soon realized his dream of becoming an entertainer with a quick wit, modest ego, and sleight-of-hand skill. Mike is in a full time relationship with his career, adventure, and travel. He is considered one of Australia’s favourite and most successful entertainers performing over 250 "clothed" shows for the biggest companies and sporting teams in the country. He has performed countless times to millions of people on TV in Australia, New Zealand, and USA while performing magic in 10 countries around the world. [2]
Audition[]
The Naked Magicians' audition was never televised. It is unknown whether or not they were buzzed. At least three judges voted "Yes," sending the duo to the Judge Cuts.
Judge Cuts[]
The Naked Magicians' Judge Cuts performance in Episode 1209 consisted of having host Tyra Banks select a random card from a deck of cards with activities on them. The duo then stripped off their shirts and revealed the chosen activity ("Eat") written in ink on both their arms and Tyra's arms. The duo's performance was not strong enough for the judges to send it to the Quarterfinals, eliminating it from the competition along with Jeki Yoo and Tony and Jordan.
