What in the world is going on Down Under?!
A contestant (?!) named Erik The Dog might be about to win Australia’s Got Talent — which, hey, whatever… until you learn Erik is a freakin’ ROBOTIC DOG!
That’s right! The AGT hosts love the flirty, cheeky metallic fake dog, but viewers of the show are now up in arms — because the K-9 could actually win a quarter of a million dollars!

Hosts Sophie Monk and Kelly Osbourne have been smitten with the sharp-tongued, quick-witted robot for some time.
The dog is actually pretty charming… in a weird way.
During the semifinals, he twerked to I’m Too Sexy, which got the judges all hot and bothered, even causing Kelly to call the pup her “boyfriend.”
Ch-ch-check it out (below):
Obviously this would be a first for the show if Erik can actually win, which would be a strange choice, even for reality TV!

You’d be pissed if you were on #gottalentau and the judges decided a dog-shaped remote control car was better than you. #ludicrous
