For his first audition on America's Got Talent, he came dressed as Sethward - the caterpillar who later transitioned into a Butterfly. The audience and the judges looked confused throughout the act.

When he switched to the Butterfly costume, the judges noticed a hole in his stockings and immediately buzzed him, sending him out of the competition.


2. Season 14 - The Giraffe and the Walrus

In season 14, Seth Allison came to the audience twice. He first came dressed as a giraffe who complained about how he wanted a long neck like the other giraffes.

While he was still in the middle of his act, he got buzzed by all the judges and booed by the audience. As he continued, Simon Cowell asked Terry Crews to drag the comedia off the stage.

In the second act, Seth came dressed as a Walrus. He played with balls on the stage just like a walrus would and even rolled down from the stage.

While Simon and Howie voted yes, Julianne and Gabrielle didn't, which sent him back home.

On the first episode of America's Got Talent, season 16, Seth came dressed as a Peacock. He was selected to go into the next round after getting four out of the six votes from the judges.

His AGT journey came to an end in episode 10, Quaterfinals, where he continued with his Peacock act and transformed into a Pheonix.
