Lotche himself thought it was a stunt set up by the show until he saw a member of the security team dive on one of the men protesting and tackle him.
The men, revealed to both be from the Los Angeles area, were wearing white t-shirts with Lotche’s name crossed out within a red circle. They were both removed from the building immediately.The unaired footage below shows the judges looking fearful and confused.
