Clownvis Presley, King of Clowns, Pisses Off Sharon Osbourne, Mocks Howie Mandel on America's Got Talent

•  don't call british people assholes and the reason they are on shows like that is because they were made by simon cowel a BRITISH person. but i agree with the other stuff

• Sceptic - Clownvis discusses that in the interview he did with the RFT's Diana Benanti. Check out the link below. http://blogs.riverfronttimes.com/atoz/2010/09/clownvis_presley_michael_grimm_interview_americas_got_talent_all-star_nbc_winner_goo_goo_dolls.php

• Well, I don't know. What I don't know is, whether this whole Clownvis thing was a set-up. Look, Letterman knew about the entire Joaquin Phoenix shtick on his show from the beginning, and the old "Gong Show" used to **deliberately** schedule terrible acts to be gonged -- all rehearsed in advance. I'm remembering how Susan Boyle had already made a name for herself in local operatic circles long before being "discovered" by Britain's Got Talent (even though the three judges looked slack-jawed from their "surprise" when she began singing). I'm just saying, I'm suspicious. It was all just a little too pat a bit of theater for me to believe it was out of the blue. Just my opinion.

• Great act........

• Ok weird Elvis as a Clown ok great for a birthday party or other parties I would not go to vegas to see him. Also he was disrespectful! I do not like an asshole in a person. Insulting Sharons husband who just happens to be the great Ozzy Osbourne! (I'm not even really a fan but I know he's great) Then insulting my Canadian countryman Howie! He's awesome and funny. Next time don't be an ass.

• CLOWNVIS RULES!!!

• F- off B---- (ha,ha)

• Tune into Culture Shock from 4-6pm to hear mine and Karen Killowatt's interview with Clownvis Presley !!! Streaming online! www.rsu.edu/rsuradio/live.asp

• word of advice clownvis, dont disrespect the god father of metal.

• Ok, here's my take... -I know Clownvis. Or, I should say that I know the man who is Clownvis. He is charming, polite, and fun to talk to. Very likeable! - The band that the man who is Clownvis fronts, I have seen around 20 times. My own band has opened for them. I'm a BIG fan! - I have seen 1 Clownvis show, I loved it. I have hired Clownvis for a telagram. It was awesome! My wife still talks about it. As far as I'm concerned, he doesn't charge enough. Ok, all of that being said, I think that Clownvis gave a terrible audition. I'm not at all suprised that it earned him 3 X's and a room full of boos. You have 90 seconds to bring the WOW. He didn't bring it. Obviosuly Clownvis had a plan B. Which he executed beautifully. If you think that he was treated unfairly, or that the judges "didn't get him," yall be trippin. Clownvis didn't give them anything to "get."

• Good to see so much positive energy on this thread!! In multiplication the product of 2 negatives numbers make a positive*. So time to crack my knuckles and do my unofficial job. @He sucked balls*: I am sorry your parents did not love you. Realist will not be having children perhaps you can get adopted. @Jeremy*: "I don't get it." Your words not mine. Don't blame yourself it's not something that cannot be taught. I'd write more but chances are your headache will get worst and really, you won't get it. @Realist*: Seriously you are too dumb to get it please do not have children especially with Dmwinsd. You may want to adopt "He Sucked balls" as he/she has an affinity with genitals. Your lack of comprehension is not your fault. Your aunt/mother had a twinkle in her eye that night in the hay loft. In your parts I�m sure this happens all too often. @Dmwinsd*: I'm sorry that production of synthetic protoplasm has not yet been successful as your protoplasm has way too many negatively charged ions. And you have way too much gram-negative bacteria in your periplasm. @mixed nuts*: Don�t hate! He's a clown that impersonates Elvis, "Show Me" what you got. *I understand an opinion can�t be wrong and that you have the right to say what ever but really how did you get the computer started and type all those words without help?

• I thought Clownvis was just another untouchable superstar but when I saw Clownvis in "Clownvis Goes to the Zoo," you get to see Clownvis 4 who he is. He is -4- the people. He mixes it up with the public despite what his handlers say. Clownvis is humble, too. On the �Americas Got Bleeding Hearts� he had himself identified as a �Grocer,� Clownvis would wash your feet before his show. Totally upset on how Clownvis was trying to have a civil conversation and he was threatened, bullied, and verbally abused. Back to �Clownvis Goes to the Zoo,� he saved 10�s to 20�s of lives by catching an escaped gorilla. Not with physical force or use of weapons but with love. Yes amongst many things Clownvis is a gorilla whisperer. Right now my 10 and 12 year old are in �time out� because they believe a viscous rumor started by some British lobster back that in fact it was a man in a gorilla suite. Before I would have beaten my kids and be put into jail but I have taken some of Clownvis�s parental advice,� There is no room for physical abuse; isolation is the key because the mind processes loneliness as pain.� I want to clear one more rumor about the gorilla. The rumor is the gorilla was a guerilla, reported by a globally know internet only tabloid. While national security is much more than a hobby to Clownvis this was not a terrorist act rather just another gorilla escape from a zoo. You and I can sleep well knowing we will not be molested in any way by a gorilla or guerilla while Clownvis is on watch.

• I have mixed feeling on this. 1. reality tv sucks balls 2. he was a plant - they asked him to come on, then tied his hands so he couldn't do his normal thing. 3. that said his normal thing is kinda dumb 4. He could have been funnier when they tried to diss him. It wasn't even really funny. 5. Whenever a Saint Louis entertainer gets on National TV, I just wish they'd be the 'better man' and not stoop to retarded insults and making it look like only jackasses come from here

• Clownvis should change his stage name to Ass Clown. People would know what they were getting. What a waste of protoplasm.

• Think about it, Clownvis didn't do an Elvis song because NBC didn't want to pay royalties to anyone. "Old McDonald" is a public domain song which Elvis did a version of in one of his many bad films. If you knew anything about Elvis you wouldn't be bitching about it.

• This guy was very funny! he told a joke or three, and did a magic trick. But then he did the mostest dumbest thing possible!! If singing "Old McDonald" is your definition of talent, the you must simply be AMAZED IF/WHEN YOU VISIT KINDERGARTEN!!!!!!!!!!!!! As for insulting the three people who say whether or not you continue on AGT (and you want to continue on AGT): That is the dumbest thing since sliced water!!!!!!!!!!! If I ever hear/see this clownvis again, it will be too soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll opt for my local clownvis impersonator, and only if he channels a mime!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

• I don't see how anyone can defend Sharon Osbourne after she screwed over members of Ozzy's original band by having their performances re-recorded for the reissues of Blizzard Of Oz and Diary Of A Madman. Especially the bass parts by Robert Trujillo. They suck ass.

• Love how half of you seem to think taking low blows at someone constitutes talent.

• People either fear clowns or don't get clown humour . The " twelve clowns un a volkswagen " just doesn't tickle some peoples fancy . I give this one a high - clown ---five. Or a clown's thumb up !

• Holy shit, that was way more entertaining than expected. I liked how Piers started clapping when he disses Howie Mandel. And when the crowd boos, he is genuinely surprised that people like Howie Mandel.

• Clownvis rocked - he takes all the elements of God awful cheesy American plastic showbiz schlock and jams it up their collective annular passage. The only thing that could have been better would be if Nick Cannon had actually come on the stage and got his ass kicked by Clownvis's body guard - I'd have paid good money to see that! Rock on Clownvis - you're too good for Vegas baby!

• I am now officially a Clownvis fan. That was ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT.

• Clownvis has a pretty good set-up. Act like an a-hole under makeup and wig and getup, and nobody recognizes you in public.

• Would Sharon Osbourne have cursed out Don Rickles if he had said that to her? (For those of you who may not know, Don Rickles is a comedian from the 60s and 70s who had an incredibly successful career that consisted of insult humor... even with racial insults.) I loved Clownvis.

• In case you didn't know!!!!! Come See Clownvis this Sunday, and celebrate our nations founding the way our founding fathers intended. By getting drunk and listening to the cool, mellow stylings of Clownvis Presley. Clownvis will be performing an All-American Spectacular this Sunday (JULY 4th) at Atomic Cowboy!!! Be there.

• its nice to see a board full of positive comments (minus the two trolls of course) Also, how is it possible that these two guys disliked his performance so much that they jumped on RFT to write such scathing reviews? Me thinks something is up.

• @Pancake Master: St. Elsewhere = a choice shout-out! Good call.

• It's funny that they lambasted him for insulting Ozzy Osbourne; from what I heard it sounded like he was actually complimenting Ozzy, just dissing Sharon. Nice one on calling out the entire audience for supporting Howie Mandel! I think Clownvis was being generous, though, Howie's last worthwhile pursuit was ST. ELSEWHERE (that doesn't mean I don't love LITTLE MONSTERS, though). My favorite was calling British dude out for being a nobody, because I was thinking the same thing, "who is this BOZO and what qualifications does he have for...anything, let alone television air-time?" We got 'em to switch TV to this show at the bowling alley so we could watch it (sadly without sound), thanks for the lead on the YouTube upload. Like another commenter above, it got me to watch a show of which I have never even seen one second before, and on league night at the bowling alley, no less. Good on ya, Clownvis.

• America has Clownvis. The show blew up until Clownvis got on stage. Speaking of no talent--- Great dig at the prince of darknesses groupie- Mrs Osbourn

• Clownvis is my homeboy! How can anyone say he sucked when they didn't even give him a chance to do anything? That show is stupid and Craig has the best point of them all. I love Clownvis!!!

• @Daniel: Coal Chamber diss FTW

• Nice. I think Clownvis should have hit 'em a little more though. "My worst nightmare? I've seen scarier things after standing up from the toilet! HIYO HOW'S YOUR MOTHER!" "Sharon Osborn? Didn't she used to be a manager? Yeah, how's COAL CHAMBER doing, you hack! BADDA BING!" "Howie Mandel? Well, that shitty joke writes itself! THANK YOU AND GOODNIGHT!"

• He played my wedding and he got me to watch a show only fat tards watch . I guess he could have tap danced . But then I would not have watched the show . Clownvis. Is my home boy

• Clownvis is my homeboy. They wouldn't let him do Elvis songs (because of licensing I'm assuming). The bottom line is: do you think some kid with a kite or a dude with no experience and a guitar could carry a 90 minute Vegas show? Or do you think the King of Clowns could do it? He's already been doing it in STL and LA!

• I think that C's performance was hampered by the fact that they wouldn't let him do songs that E did. Just saying...

• I've been a fan of Clownvis for several years now and after this, I love him even more! He showed exactly how stupid that show (and "reality" TV in general) really is. I think it would have been even funnier if he had came out and said that he'd lived through some tragedy and then burst into tears and sobbed, "This is my dream!" Isn't that what that show's all about anyway? As for the post performace part, everything he said is true. Sharon only got "famous" because she's married to an idiot, Howie's only "talent" was that he could put a rubber glove on his head and host game shows and the British guy is only on there because he's the token "British a**hole" that all these shows HAVE to have. I think we should all be thanking Clownvis for giving us a reason to actually watch that show. Viva Clownvis!!!!

• Wow..."he sucked balls" and "jeremy", you guys sure are clueless. Go back to your reality TV and leave the true art to those who are creative enough to make real art...

• That was great.

• Punk as FUCK.

• Well, he was no Susan Boyle...

• Absolute garbage. I didn't enjoy his performance at all. I don't understand why anybody likes him, even his makeup was terrible. I don't understand why you would want to be a clown or an Elvis impersonator, let alone a combination of both. Clownvis, if you read this, don't quit your day job. I'm sure you're better suited to entertaining dumb kids at birthday parties.

• Clownvis was terrible! It wasted 5 minutes of my time just to see his absurdly horrid performance.Please, Clownvis, show some respect to the world and "fuck off"

• God bless Clownvis & all who sail with him. The genius was in the details, such as introducing "Old McDonald" as "a song about the working man". Or his occupation being listed as Grocier. Or a half-dozen other little subtle bits that killed the competition. Oh man. It was genius. My friends & I popped a bottle of champagne as soon as it was done. Seriously.

• Clownvis is the bomb!! The clown for the new millineum. He should have gone to Vegas fer sure...those dopes do not appreciate true talent whn they see it. His royal clown-ness shut em down impromptu...He's got my vote!! Break a nose we clowns say>>>>>>

• This is most epic thing in the history of everything.
