Men with Pans

Men with Pans was a novelty act from Season 12 of America's Got Talent. It was likely eliminated before the Judge Cuts.

Background

What happens when seasoned performers Kevin Brooking and Colm O'Grady create a show after 2 years of improvising with hundreds of frying pans and a grain of popcorn? The result is their act "Naked Lunch".

Two gastronomically challenged characters Lloyd and Harold pretend to be French chefs from French France. These culinary wizards are ready with the recipes if they can only figure out how to light the oven. [1]

They're performed in 2015 at Das Supertalent. They were eliminated at the audition round.

Audition

Men with Pans' audition in Episode 1204 consisted of the men wearing just chef hats, socks, shoes and pans, which they strategically use to cover their genitals. At one point, one of the men ditched his pan while upside down in a lift, as his partner switched his cookware back and forth to cover their backsides as they spun in place. The song used in the act was Yma Sumac's "Gopher Mambo". Mel B and Simon Cowell buzzed the act. Although Simon voted "No", Howie Mandel, Mel B (reluctantly), and Heidi Klum voted "Yes", sending the duo to the Judge Cuts.


Judge Cuts

Men with Pans did not perform in the Judge Cuts round, meaning the act either withdrew or was cut by the judges before this stage of the competition.

After the Show

Men with Pans competed on Season 14 of La France a un incroyable talent, where they received two buzzes and were eliminated in the audition round. They also competed on the Italian competition series Tu Si Que Vales in 2020 under the name "Naked Lunch" in which they were eliminated in the preliminary round.
