‘The Voice' UK Final Inerrupted By An Activist After Judge Tom Jones Uttered Foul Language

"The Voice" UK final had some unexpected moments that were not planned by the producers to add hype to the show. When the two finalists were announced, the veteran musician Tom Jones out of excitement or surprise uttered "f**k me." Emma Willis wasted no time and apologized for the foul language.

The "Sex Bomb" singer was the mentor of Into The Ark, one of the finalists. The other one is Mo Adeniran who won and got the recording contract with Polydor. His mentor was actress-singer Jennifer Hudson whom he thanked after he was proclaimed the winner.

After which, a man wearing a baseball cap stormed up the stage holding a piece of paper. But before the audience got the chance to read what is written on it, he was taken down by security personnel. It was found out later that the intruder was Dr. A.C., an aspiring rapper as per BBC. He explained why he did it via a Periscope video.

According to Huffington Post, at first many speculated that he was comedian Lee Nelson because of his attire. Nelson was responsible in intruding the 2015 Glastonbury set during Kanye West's performance and another one at the "X Factor" stage. But an ITV source dismissed the assumption upon knowing that Simon Brodkin a.k.a. Lee Nelson has a gig at that time.

The intruder who was an activist saved the embarrassment of Jones because the attention was diverted to him. In his video, he wrote that he still suffered from the pain caused by the security choking him when he was forcefully taken from the stage.

"The Voice" UK finale has successfully declared a winner despite the "moments" that made the Sunday's show unforgettable. Right after the finals, "The Voice" Kids will follow later this year.
