Stephen Wright (born 13 December 1962), better known by his stage name Stevie Starr,[1] is a Scottish performance artist who focuses on professional regurgitation.
In his act, he swallows various items, such as coins, lightbulbs, balloons, nails, billiard balls, dry sugar, lighter fluid and goldfish, and then regurgitates them.
The implausibility of some of his performances, such as regurgitating a "solved" Rubik's cube, have resulted in some observers believing that he is an illusionist.
In October 2011, he appeared on series 2 of the Czech-Slovak version of the show, Česko Slovensko má talent, where he progressed to the final.
[citation needed] In January 2015, he appeared on series 9 of the French version of the show, La France a un incroyable talent, where he progressed to the final.
In June 2015, he appeared as a season 10 contestant on NBC's America's Got Talent; he reached the final round, finishing in fourth place.
On 28 January 2019 Starr appeared on the fourth episodes of the Champions edition of America's Got Talent in Los Angeles.
[6] On 8 February 2019 Starr appeared on the Romanian version of the show, Românii au talent, in the first episode of its 9th season.
