If any contestant does not follow this rule, they will be automatically disqualified and will need to leave the stage immediately.
- As a rule for anyone in the room during the contest, the use of phones, cameras and any other recording devices is STRICTLY PROHIBITED. Security will be posted around the room and if they see any phones out, they will have the attendee removed immediately.
