The Ruby Red Performers, a group of 12 women aged 25 to 64 from the quaint village of Withernsea, delivered an unforgettable audition on Britain’s Got Talent.
Initially, their performance seemed unremarkable, with the women dressed in washerwomen costumes performing a dull introduction that prompted Simon Cowell to buzz them off.
However, the act quickly took a surprising turn as the women stripped off their costumes to reveal silk nightgowns and began a sultry dance routine.
Dancing to “I Like the Way You Move” by BodyRockers, the women progressively shed more garments, embracing their daring side. The audience, initially quiet, erupted in cheers as the performance gained momentum.
The Ruby Red Performers ended their routine adorned in British flag tassels and undergarments, delivering a bold and triumphant finale.
Their unique and captivating audition seemed destined for YouTube fame, amassing 16.7 million views and becoming one of the most-watched dance group performances in the show’s history.
Viewers left comments like, “I don’t know exactly why, but this made me so happy and made my day!” praising the group’s energy and bravery.
After the audition, Simon Cowell admitted, “I may have pressed my button a little early.” David Walliams called the act “brilliantly original and really entertaining.”
Alesha Dixon added, “Ladies, that has made my day,” highlighting the act’s empowerment of women and its impressive nature.
Despite Cowell’s initial buzz, the Ruby Red Performers secured four yes votes from the judges, advancing to the next round.
