Audition[]
Wes Barker's audition was never televised, but all four judges voted "Yes," sending Wes to the Judge Cuts round.
Judge Cuts[]
Wes Barker's Judge Cuts performance in Episode 1009 consisted of attempting to escape from a straitjacket while a screen behind him, which showed a censored photo of Wes nude, showed a timer which, when run out, would slowly remove the censor bar on the nude on-screen Wes. Wes successfully escaped from the jacket with just a few seconds remaining. Wes' performance was not strong enough for the judges to send him to the Quarterfinals, eliminating him from the competition along with Chris Jones, instead of Uzeyer Novruzov.
After the Show[]
In 2024, Wes Barker appeared on an episode of the tenth season of Penn & Teller: Fool Us but did not fool the duo this time.
