Britain may have dancing dogs and quick footed kids, but when it comes to cross-dressing Britney Spears impersonators, America's got it covered.
Sharon Osbourne was left gob smacked after a rather convincing lookalike of the pop star revealed he was in fact a man named Derrick Barry.
Shocked: Sharon Osbourne was lost for words during the latest episode of America's Got Talent
The America's Got Talent hopeful, complete with long blonde tresses, polished make up and PVC costume, performed a dance routine to Britney's hit Toxic.
Fellow judge Piers Morgan was the first to buzz out the act, adding later: 'I did actually think you were very like Britney Spears... a complete and utter train wreck.'
But the performer did manage to impress David Hasslehoff, who voted him through after a standing ovation.
The former Baywatch star declared: 'Oh my god, you're hot!'
Sharon agreed, putting the 24-year-old through to the next round.
She concluded: 'I'm in shock, I think Derrick is sensational.'

He is a dead ringer for Britney with that hat on! He is Gorgeous. Yeah, I said "he" is gorgeous, he is the best impersonator that I have ever seen. If he has her height and body type he may as well go ahead and change his name to "Britney"!
