Season 19 of America’s Got Talent had many talented acts bless the stage for America. Unfortunately, not everyone can make it through to the live shows. The reality competition series is due to return on August 13 after the Olympics, and when it does, it will dive straight to the live shows. TV Line reports that only 44 of the many acts that auditioned will go through to the live shows.
This season saw the rules surrounding the Golden Buzzer change. Each judge – Simon Cowell, Sofía Vergara, Heidi Klum, and Howie Mandel – each received two Golden Buzzers. Terry Crews, the host, still only has one. Before the hiatus, it was revealed that the judges get one more Golden Buzzer each to send an act to the finals. This season is definitely the season of the Golden Buzzer.
Nine acts instead of the usual five were guaranteed a spot in the live shows after receiving a Golden Buzzer for their stunning auditions. Cowell pressed the Golden Buzzer for singer Liv Warfield and drone group Sky Elements, so they will be going straight through to the live shows. Klum pressed the buzzer for singers Richard Goodall and 9-year-old Pranysqa Mishra, who stunned the judges with her cover of Tina Turner’s “River Deep, Mountain High”. Vergara’s golden Buzzer pick was the Japanese group Schumacher and the dance group Legion. Mandel sent dance group Brent Street and 14-year-old singer Reid Wilson straight to the live shows after impressing him with their auditions. Crews gave his Golden Buzzer to comedian Learnmore Jonasi.
