'AGT' Season 17 Live Show: Fans call Oleksandr Yenivatov's contortionist act 'too weird for America to vote'

With the live 'America's Got Talent' shows finally here, it all comes down to that one life-changing performance. With only two acts advancing each week, there is a lot on the line, as the artists have to give it all they've got, if they want to make it to the finals and stand a chance to win big.

Oleksandr and Aurélie Brua Yenivatov were all set to show the judges what they had to offer. Oleksandr noted that he is a proud Ukrainian. Inspired by Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee, he trained his body to move in "impossible ways". He never dreamed that his talent would bring him and his wife all the way to the 'AGT' stage. He also mentioned that when Simon took back his buzzer during the audition, he felt a sense of compassion. Now, he was all set to perform for "peace and Ukraine".

Oleksandr and Aurélie Brua Yenivatov's performance was all sorts of weird and wonderful with Oleksandr truly pushing the limits of the human body. The judges had nothing but praise for the pair, seeing that they definitely took it up a notch from what they displayed during the auditions. However, fans weren't too impressed with what they had to offer and took to Twitter to voice their opinions about the same. "Anyone else bored with Oleksandr's performance? #AGT" said a fan. "Not even lying that act literally almost put me to sleep #AGT" added another. "Weird as hell. He's good at contortions but it was a bit slow and a tad too weird for America to vote for I think. #AGT" said another. "What kind of insane bondage sex does this couple have??? #AGT #AmericasGotTalent" asked a fan. "That was boring and pointless. The freaks body bending isn’t talent. #AGT" tweeted another.
