PASADENA, CALIFORNIA: In May 2023, the new season of 'America's Got Talent' began its journey with Season 18. A bunch of eager performers gathered, dreaming of winning the huge $1 million prize. With Simon Cowell as a judge and executive producer, along with Sofia Vergara, Heidi Klum, and Howie Mandel, the show was full of excitement and thrill. Hosting the show once again is the energetic Terry Crews, who always brings his own special charm to the stage.
To pass the auditions, an act needed at least three "yes" votes from the judges. But if two or more judges pressed the buzzers to show their disapproval, the act would be instantly out of the competition. To make things more thrilling, each judge and Terry Crews had the power to use the Golden Buzzer, which could directly send an act to the electrifying live performances. The competition has now become fierce, and the stakes had never been higher!
