The last performance episode of “America’s Got Talent” Season 18 aired on Tuesday, September 26 with the 11 finalists taking the stage for America’s votes. Everything seemed to be going according to plan until it came to the second act of the night, Mzansi Youth Choir. Following their high-energy performance of “My Universe” by BTS and Coldplay, Howie Mandel was booed by the live studio audience when he declared it “wasn’t [his] favorite.” Do You agree with Howie? Or were you more in the camp of Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum and Sofia Vergara, who had nothing but praises for the South African chorale group? Watch the “AGT” video above.
Howie started out his critic by telling them, “I love you,” and that they’re one of his “favorite choirs ever in the history of ‘AGT.'” He went on to say, “I was so moved when you first came on. [But] if this was the album,...

On Wednesday night we will find out who America voted the next champion of “America’s Got Talent,” earning the chance to see their name in the big lights of Vegas. Before that happens, there are predictions and opinions to discuss about who we think Should be the winner. Eleven acts will perform one last time on Tuesday, but if you ask me, there is only one that America should send straight through to Vegas and that’s the Ramadhani Brothers.
As of this writing, the sibling danger act is not being predicted by Gold Derby as the winner and have long shot odds of 100/1. Instead, most users believe the French dance troupe Murmuration or Indonesian vocalist Putri Ariani will win. Still, I insist that the Ramadhani Brothers are the best prepared to add value to the Vegas strip with their incredible talent Below, see my personal power rankings for all...

On May 30, “America’s Got Talent” season 18 premiered with the first installment of audition episodes. In this initial stage of the competition, each judge is given one “golden buzzer” decision to make where they can send an act straight through to the live shows. In addition to those individual decisions, there has been in recent seasons an opportunity for a group decision where they all anoint their favorite act of the night together. This week, none of those came to pass. Instead, Simon Cowell surprised Mzansi Youth Choir with the first ever audience Golden Buzzer. Watch the full performance in the video above.
Ahead of their performance, the group explained the start of their choir through the sad story of their founders being carjacked by young people. They saw it as an opportunity to “change young lives” by creating the youth choir. The group continued by saying that AGT is the...

Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum and Sofia Vergara watched as the 40-year-old cowboy cracked his whips with ace precision on the big stage. “I make a living traveling around the country and we do Renaissance festivals,” he explained before beginning his act. “My hope is to do it for as long as I can do it, hopefully into my 60s and maybe into my 70s.”
When Adam mentioned that he would need a volunteer for his act, Simon immediately started chanting, “Sofia! Sofia! Sofia!” Heidi soon followed along, and so the “Modern Family” actress begrudgingly walked up on stage. The fourth judge, Howie Mandel, was out sick.

“There was something really special about Jane. I adored her,” declared “America’s Got Talent” judge Simon Cowell during the July 5 episode that looked back at the Top 15 “AGT” Golden Buzzers of all time. He was referring to Jane Marczewski, known professionally as Nightbirde, who earned the #1 spot on his list.

The singer-songwriter later withdrew from the competition due to health complications and passed away six months later at age 31.
