BGT fans divided over Tiktok star Jane who failed to impress Simon Cowell

Britain’s Got Talent fans were left divided on Saturday night’s debut return of the popular talent show, as TikTok sensation Jane Mckenna failed to impress veteran judge Simon Cowell with her performance.

The 64 year old social media star, performed a unique movement routine, where she impersonated images that were flashed on screen, including everything from a stapler through to a brioche bun!

The quirky act went down a treat with members of the studio audience, but sadly it failed to impress Simon, who felt it was too niche for the show, and sadly refused to put Jane through to the next round – although he did thank her for coming out to audition.

Fans at home were left divided by the result, as many viewers at home were loving the performance – and couldn’t understand why Simon wasn’t impressed by the unique and tongue-in-cheek act.

“Jane is a tiktok queen! Gutted for her,” commented one fan as Simon sent the star packing.

A second viewer also agreed as they wrote: “I’ve sat bored through the whole show, at least Jane the dancing object woman made me laugh for a few minutes”

A third fan also weighed in as they wrote: “How dare they give Jane from TikTok 4 red X’s!”

Before a fourth added: “Not Jane being a stapler and sharpener ICONIC”

Not everyone was a fan however, with several viewers also not holding back as they slated her act.

“Oh Jane I’m sorry love but no that is not dancing only if you work in a stationery and a bakers,” remarked one fan.

While a second fan didn’t mince words as they wrote: “It's acts like this 'dancer' Jane where you wonder how they've made it through life, let alone to the audition stages of #BGT!”

Before a third viewer added: “Why would they put such rubbish as that on. Hasn’t Jane got anything better to do. Mind you I’m wondering if I’ve got anything better to do?”

Meanwhile, a few fans remained firmly on the fence, with one viewer soon commenting: “Jane was weirdly entertaining, but I also would've buzzed. Sorry, Jane!”

Away from Britain's Got Talent, Jane has made a name for herself on the UK TikTok scene, where she performs her unique dances under the name @The_DevonMaid.

Although Simon may not be a fan of her performance, her impressive following of 660 thousand people shows she clearly has an avid fan following.

Jane, who hails from Plymouth, accidentally became a viral sensation two years ago, after posting “silly videos” about how various household items would walk.

Posting her first TikTok video in March 2021, the childminder of 30 years couldn’t quite believe how quickly her fame had skyrocketed, and ahead of her BGT performance, had previously joked about appearing on the show.

“Imagine watching Simon Cowell’s face if he saw me walking like a Mars bar or something,” she laughed, during a chat with DevonLive.

Jane, who is happily single, worked as a childminder until July 2022 when two families she worked for relocated.

Since then she has focused her attention on her booming social media career, which continues to impress fans.
