Simon Cowell Stunned by Ballerina-Contortionist Marina Mazepa’s Jaw-Dropping AGT Performance
Simon Cowell was left speechless by the mind-bending performance of ballerina and contortionist Marina Mazepa on America’s Got Talent. Comparing her routine to one of the most shocking horror films of all time, he declared that her act was “crazier” than The Exorcist.
Before Marina took the stage, Cowell mentioned that he is good friends with Linda Blair, the star of the 1973 supernatural thriller. He also called the director’s cut of the film one of the most unsettling things he’s ever seen—setting the bar high for what was about to unfold.
At just 21 years old, Marina wowed the judges with her unique fusion of ballet and contortion, earning a resounding four “yes” votes. Her daring performance marked a major step forward in her journey to Los Angeles, where she’s chasing her dream of becoming a professional dancer.
