round a month since her successful spooky performance on America’s Got Talent, that has attracted more than 8.2 million views, Indonesian magician The Sacred Riana returned to the show with another terrifying act.
Published on the reality show’s YouTube channel on Friday, the performance saw her summoning an imaginary friend to play with Mel B, who clearly appeared even more scared than before as she was once again chosen by Riana to participate in her act.

Now donning a black dress, though still refusing to utter a response to whatever questions asked by the judges, Riana actually performed a quite similar act during the semifinal stage of Asia’s Got Talent 2017, as pointed out by some YouTube users on the comment section of the channel. Nevertheless, the judges and audience, as well as the other participants watching from backstage, could be seen enjoying the show, with Simon Cowell commenting, “I actually want this to end, right now”, to which Mel B replied, “Me too”, followed by a scared Howie Mandel telling Riana, “Well thank you; go away now, go away now”.
The "Leak"-titled video did not reveal any decision being made about whether the magician would go through to the next round – only showing Mel B walking off the stage, clearly frightened, and even more scared when she realized she was being followed by her “new friend”.
