Simon's shock
The music mogul was left absolutely stunned when a hundred of his look-a-likes took to the stage this weekend.
At first, the group - who donned white shirts, jet-black wigs and sunglasses - started off with one member singing a rendition of Tina Turner's Simply the Best.
Yet the situation escalated as a 100-strong group of Simon lookalikes then poured onto the stage.
The camera captured him putting his hands to his head as he gasped: “Oh my God."
An audience member then exclaimed: “They keep coming!” as the enormous group continued to arrive on stage.
Backstage, Ant cheekily swiped: “It’s like a nightmare I had once."
