On tonight’s America’s Got Talent episode, yesterday may have been the start of the Semifinals, but tonight was its following blood bath. Or conclusion for the nicer kind. There was no night two. This was it before the Finale. It helps that no one got buzzed by the judges last night.
Only that won’t be enough if the audience doesn’t save them. The TT Boys had popularity backed up by great skill and even Howie regrets not giving them the Golden Buzzer when he had the chance. There were also Zak Mirz who Simon felt wasn’t as good as the last time.
Simon did find himself bored during certain parts. He got bored with Unreal Crew. Many thought that was unfair because they creeped out everyone else and it should have scared Simon too. Howie defended that dance crew until he got bored himself with another act. It was all great yesterday. Don’t know why anyone was bored! Simon laughed the loudest at the last line of Chris Turner’s performance. He loves that freestyling rapper. Sofia loved Jessica Sanchez. It was her favorite up against one of Simon’s picks.
Jessica was paired off against Birmingham Youth Fellowship Choir. Both acts gave great performances. This was a tough battle and it was Jessica that won it. Tonight was the last night for the Birmingham Youth Fellowship Choir. The kids really gave it all. This won’t be the end for them. Jessica came back after nearly twenty years. Those kids can all do the same. The choir continue to inspire with the kind parting words. Jessica for one didn’t think she could beat them and seemed genuinely left surprised when she did.
In other news, the AGT Music Room has taken off. It was announced tonight that they didn’t just show music from the show. It offered unseen footage and advance showing of other music the artists were producing. Those that love Chris Turner could get to see his other music. Chris went and won his round against the Unreal Crew. Simon seemed to have his finger on the pulse with that one. He thought Unreal Crew could have done more. America agreed with him because they had never seen anyone quite as versatile as Chris.
The next battle was a three way. It was between Light Wire, Sirca Marea, and Zak Mirz. Two of these acts went through to the Finale. The first one to make it was Light Wire. Their light dance was truly jaw-dropping. They put on a Las Vegas worthy show. They all did and its sad that one of them get eliminated. Between Sirca Marea and Zak, there was only one true winner because Simon was far too often right. Sirca Marea won that battle. They will be going to the Finale. Zak was sadly eliminated and hopefully his magic continues to bring joy in the world.
This was NBC. They were going to promote their other shows and that included the new one filling in for AGT once the fall season kicked in. There was this new show with Jimmy Fallon hosting. It was about everyday Americans making real ads for real companies. It was promised to be a buddle of laughs, but back to the show. There was a performance from Solange Kardinaly. She was the quick change artist from a previous season and she came back to show that she still got it. And she thanked the show for help launching her career.
Terry also took the time to show off the new IKEA lounge. Yes, it was checked and those colorful chairs can be found on their website for those interested. Terry played a trivia game based on AGT history with the judges. Simon and Mel won it. Simon made sure to walk away with the trophy though. There were two spots left afterwards and it was time to fill it. Jourdan Blue was paired off against his buddy, Bay Melnick Virgolino. Both sang. Bay also added his amazing guitar skills and it wasn’t enough to save him. Jourdan won this round. He has a voice that stays with people.
Again, this won’t be the end for young Bay. Bay was too good to not keep rocking on. Now the last battle. The battle was between the TT Boys and Leo High School Choir. The winner was an upset because Leo High School Choir managed to beat out the TT Boys. No one saw that coming. Not even the boys from the choir. They were all so shocked when they heard they were going to the Finale.
THE END!
