If you’ve been watching this season of the NBC talent show, "America’s Got Talent", you might have noticed a unique comedian, who goes by the name of Tape Face.
Tape Face’s first audition was unexpected. You didn’t know what he was going to do. He didn’t talk and he had this look of an “emo boy” with a striped shirt, a grey jacket, jeans, and converse. He did two act segments. The first one was with the song “Endless Love” by Lionel Richie and Diana Ross and he put on two oven mitts that lip-synch the song. Then, he did an act with the 80s song “Lady In Red” by Chris de Burgh. Just look at the video below it’s easier to watch than explain.
