They attended an audition held in the Lowry Theatre in MediaCity Salford where they performed a routine dressed as 1950s cleaning women dancing to Queen's "I Want to Break Free".〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=YouTube: Britain's Got Talent - The Ruby Red want to get something off their chests )〕 Early on into their routine, Simon Cowell pressed his buzzer to indicate that he did not like the act, but shortly afterwards there was a tempo change in the routine and the women stripped down to large pairs of underwear, much to the delight of the audience and judges. After their performance, Cowell admitted that he had pressed his buzzer too early and suggested that the British Royal Family might like to see the act perform. The act also appealed to the female judges with Amanda Holden saying it made her proud to be a woman and Alesha Dixon declaring that the group were giving confidence to women and that what they were doing was "powerful". They were given four 'yes' votes by the panel, allowing them to progress in the competition. On 25 May 2015, The Ruby Red Performers performed live in the first semi final along with eight other acts but came in last place in the public vote, therefore not advancing to the final.〔 〕 The group began their routine dressed as lollipop ladies before stripping down to black underwear and exploding bras.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title=Hull Daily Mail: Britain's Got Talent 2015 - Ruby Red Performers miss out on final ) 〕 Their routine received favourable comments from the judges but they were criticised for their physical appearance on Twitter by columnist Kate Hopkins and former Strictly Come Dancing dancer James Jordan, with these comments being picked up by the national press. Jordan described the Ruby Reds as "fat old birds" whilst Hopkins, who is famous for her outspoken vitriolic comments, said their act was about women "being confident about their bodies and eating pork pies".〔 〕 The group responded by tweeting a photograph of them all on the bus back to Withernsea eating pork pies. 〔 (【引用サイトリンク】 title= Jennifer Dees on Twitter: image of Ruby Red Performers with Pork Pies ) 〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ruby Red Performers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
