As for Simon, he took a slightly different approach, as the montage showed a man looking similar to the star climbing into a soapy bath filled with bubbles.
The music mogul could be seen with his sunglasses on and admiring a yellow rubber duck.
Speaking to the duck, Simon said: “I didn’t like it, I loved it.”
The latest series of BGT has already attracted hundreds of Ofcom complaints from angry viewers after an “inappropriate” fire stunt.

Contestant and stuntman Thomas Vu took to the stage in front of judges and challenged himself to try and solve a Rubik’s Cube whilst on fire.
The aspiring performer horrified the judges, but left them feeling impressed at the same time to go through to the next round.
However, fans of the ITV show called on Ofcom to step in after the TV hit broadcast footage of a man on fire during a Rubik’s Cube challenge.
After the controversial act made his appearance on the show, TV watchdog Ofcom reported that it received 334 complaints.

A spokesperson for the entertainment show insisted that the stunt was acceptable to audiences as the programme “showcases a mix of variety acts to engage audiences”.
They added: “In this case, it was made very clear on screen that this act should not be tried at home and the programme was subject to strict compliance rules.”
Hosts Ant and Dec gave prior warning for viewers to not try the stunt at home, many still took to Twitter to express their outrage.

One said: “No to people setting themselves on fire! That is not an act!
Another fan of the show said: “I cannot believe Britain’s Got Talent actually showed a man setting himself on fire in the name of entertainment.
“Even if the guy came out unharmed and he is a professional stunt man it is unbelievably irresponsible in my view.”
A third wrote: “I don’t want to sound alarmist but is that really suitable on a family show? I can imagine some stupid kids trying to emulate that stunt.”
