Alexander Klaws and Maniac
Before the show, Alexander Klaws, representing Germany, said: "Ich will der Welt zeigen, was ich drauf habe und dass ich singen kann."
Alexander sang - and danced - Maniac in World Idol.
The Polish judge, Kuba Wojewodzski, said: "Because my English is not brilliant I have a note for you. It sounded like karaoke in the old pensioners' home." The audience booed. Kuba continued: "Sorry! You are looking like a caricature of Michael Jackson. I've got a symbol of losers from my country to you." He then held up a red and white striped tie.
The Australian judge then told Alexander: "I don't want anyone ever to tell me that Germans don't have a sense of humour. That was a comedy routine, I'm afraid."
The American judge, Simon Cowell, known as Mr Nasty did not like the performance either. He told Alexander: "You must have an amazing personality because people win these things on their personalities.
"Without being rude it was terrible. There is not a cat in hell's chance of you winning this based on that performance, because it was terrible."
