Viewers of Great Britain's "You've Got Talent" finale got a surprise when a member of the show's orchestra calmly walked on stage and began pelting Simon Cowell with fresh eggs.

The unidentified woman was dressed totally in black and was smiling all the while she directed her eggs at her target. The lady managed to hit Cowell directly several times, smashing the fresh eggs against his jacket, before members of the show's security force was able to get her under control and escort her off the premises.

The identity of Cowell's mystery attacker remains undisclosed and there was no reason given why one of the show's musicians should have a vendetta against the controversial judge on the popular series. Cowell looked plainly annoyed at what was happening, then later sent a tweet to his Twitter account fans, explaining that he never counted eggs among his favorite foods and now had reason to dislike them even more. One of Cowell's fellow judges helped him to remove his soiled coat and called the egg-thrower a "stupid cow."

Some fans suspected that the attack was in reality a publicity stunt to get more people talking about the show's finale. No word if the young woman faces criminal charges.
