Britain’s Got Talent fans ‘howling’ as KSI rages at ‘totally unexpected’ twist in scary act
Britain’s Got Talent judge KSI just went through a harrowing experience on screen. The star was tied to a chair and tormented with his worst nightmares – and viewers at home were just as scared as he was.
In the scary scene, a masked figure walked on stage in a cloak, with just a wooden chair behind him as a prop. “Hello judges, I am The Tormentor,” he growled, with a deep, distorted voice.
“I am here to inflict torment on one of you and make your nightmares a reality. But which one?” he asked, before pointing at the YouTube star and announcing: “You, join me on stage.”
The cloaked act started to tease him with private details of past loves before revealing he was going to torture him with his biggest fear – insects.
KSI started screaming and trying to pull himself out of his chair as the figure walked around him with a box of creepy crawlies, before a mask was pulled over his eyes.
The figure only used a feather duster to tickle KSI, who thought he had bugs crawling over him. KSI begged for mercy, vowing to get payback before the figure took his mask off – revealing it was Deji, KSI’s brother.
KSI had no idea that Deji was the one behind the mask before the grand reveal, while Ant and Dec were in stitches. On X, formerly known as Twitter, fans couldn’t believe the hilarious sibling betrayal.
“THAT WAS DEJI – IM HOWLING,” one person said, while another wrote: “That was great! KSI is hilarious.” Another thought that KSI should have gone up against a boxing foe, sharing: “Would have been better if it was Tommy Fury behind the mask.”
“Well that was totally unexpected. KSI is amazed,” said a fourth viewer at home, while another posted a string of laughing emojis and added: “How embarrassing screaming like a girl from your own brother.”
KSI opened up about the stunt during an exclusive chat with the Mirror, and the terrified star admitted that he had no idea it was about to happen. “I was blind to it all,” he insisted.
“When I got pulled up on stage, I just thought, ‘Here we go. How is he going to torment me?’ He gets me up on stage and he mentions a girl I was involved with years ago, no one really knows about her, only a specific few people do.”
KSI could already predict what fans would say about his wild reaction to his biggest fear, and shared: “I already know I’m gonna get clowned on memes. That is going viral and is what it is, I just have to take it! I will get payback on The Tormentor!”
