VEGAS. **
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Announcer: LIVE, IT'S "AMERICA'S GOT TALENT."
HERE'S YOUR HOST, TERRY CREWS. Terry: I SEE YOU.
I SEE YOU ALL. YES!
AMERICA, WELCOME TO THE GREATEST STAGE IN THE WORLD.
TONIGHT, THE JOURNEY CONTINUES FOR 11 MORE ACTS.
THEY MADE IT THROUGH THE AUDITIONS.
THEY MADE IT THROUGH THE JUDGES' CUT.
BUT NOW, FOR THE FIRST TIME, THEY FACE YOU AT HOME, THE BEST
AUDIENCE IN THE WORLD. ONLY YOU CAN DECIDE WHO GOES
THROUGH TO SEE IN THE FINALS. LET'S GET STRAIGHT INTO IT.
11 ACTS ARE COMING UP, ONLY TWO CAN SURVIVE.
ARE YOU READY TO MEET THE TALENT?
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: OKAY, CHECK THIS OUT.
LUCKILY, OUR FIRST ACT CAN DO MORE WITH ONE FOOT THAN I CAN DO
WITH TWO. HE'S HAD TO COME ALL THE WAY
FROM NEW ZEALAND TO PURSUE HIS DREAM IN AMERICA.
HE'S BAYLEY GRAHAM. I WAS 6 YEARS OLD WHEN I
STARTED TAP DANCING. MY STAGE WAS IN THE LIVING ROOM
DANCING WITH MY SISTER. IN NEW ZEALAND IT'S HARD FOR A
DANCER, ESPECIALLY A TAP DANCER. THE COOL THING ABOUT THE USA IS
THAT IT'S ONE OF THE BIRTH PLACES OF TAP DANCE.
FRED ASTAIR, SAMMY DAVIS JR. THAT'S WHY "AGT" IS MY CHANCE TO
MY MAKE DREAM A REALITY. TO HEADLINE A SHOW IN LAS VEGAS,
THAT'S THE DREAM. OFF THE STAGE I'M A MORE QUIET
PERSON. ONCE THAT MUSIC STARTS I JUST
GET GOING. Sofia: YOU REALLY UNDERSOLD
YOURSELF. Howie: YOU ARE AN
ENTERTAINER. I'VE BEEN WORKING NONSTOP,
MANY, MANY HOURS, A LOT OF SLEEPLESS NIGHT, A LOT OF FAST
FOOTWORK, REALLY GETTING INTO IT.
MY LEGS WILL BE SORE BY THE END, BUT HOPEFULLY YOU GUYS WILL
ENJOY IT. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
HOW'S IT GOING "AGT"? [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
NOW!
** HEY!
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] ALL RIGHT, LADIES AND
GENTLEMEN. CLAP WITH ME.
CLAP! YEAH.
** **
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: BAYLEY GRAHAM.
HEIDI? Heidi: I REALLY LIKED THIS.
YOU DO HAVE GREAT CHARISMA. YOU HAVE GREAT SHOWMANSHIP.
TO BE HONEST ANY BROADWAY STAGE OR ANY VEGAS STAGE WOULD BE
LUCKY TO HAVE YOU. THANK YOU.
Terry: HOWIE? Howie: I AGREE WITH WHAT
SHE'S SAYING. I THINK THIS STAGE IS LUCKY TO
HAVE YOU. YOU MAKE IT LOOK SO EASY AND I
KNOW THE SKILL SET. THERE'S A REASON WHY FRED ASTAIR
AND GENE KELLY WERE BIG STARS. YOU'RE BRINGING IT BACK TO THIS
GENERATION WITH A GREAT MODERN SOUND.
VOTE, AMERICA. Terry: SOFIA?
Sofia: THERE'S NOTHING OLD FASHIONED ABOUT YOUR TAP
DANCING. IT WAS SPECTACULAR.
I CAN IMAGINE YOU'RE THE FIRST PERSON IN THE WORLD TO TAP DANCE
TO ED SHEERAN. FOR SURE.
Terry: SIMON? Simon: BAYLEY, I REALLY LIKE
YOU. WE LOVE THE FACT YOU COME FROM
ALL OVER THE WORLD, FROM NEW ZEALAND TO COME HERE.
YOU DID A GREAT FIRST AUDITION. I FELT THAT WAS SLIGHTLY
UNDERWHELMING IF YOU WANT MY OPINION.
I DO. Sofia: WHAT?
Simon: FOR ME IT'S -- OH, SHUT UP.
WHAT IT LACKED I THOUGHT WAS A SPECTACULAR ENDING.
I THINK YOUR STAIRCASE WAS TOO SMALL AS WELL.
Terry: BAYLEY, HOW DO YOU WANT TO RESPOND TO SIMON RIGHT
NOW? HONESTLY YOUR OPINION
MATTERS. ANY CRITICISM IS GOOD CRITICISM.
THANK YOU FOR THAT. Terry: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT,
BAYLEY. THE FINALS ARE IN TWO WEEKS.
ONLY TWO ACTS CAN GO THROUGH. IT ALL DEPENDS ON HOW YOU VOTE
TONIGHT. VOTING IS OPEN UNTIL 7:00 A.M.
EASTERN TOMORROW. SO GET ONLINE AT NBC.COM OR VOTE
ON THE "AGT" APP. YOUR VOTES CHANGE LIVES.
SO GET BUSY. MORE ACTS ARE WAITING TO SHOW
YOU WHAT THEY'VE GOT. STAY RIGHT THERE.
** [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: COMING UP -- Sofia: THAT WAS SO MUCH FUN.
THIS IS WHAT YOU GUYS ARE MEANT TO DO.
* OUR LOVE WAS MEANT TO BE * Simon: IT IS EASY TO FALL IN
LOVE WITH A CONTESTANT. Heidi: IMMEDIATELY I FELL IN
** [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: TWO THINGS, AS WE GO THROUGH THE SHOW TONIGHT.
ONE, YOU GOTTA KEEP VOTING. AND TWO, YOU CAN GET DIRECTLY
INVOLVED BY FOLLOWING THE ACTS ON TWITTER, INSTAGRAM OR
FACEBOOK @AGT AS THEY PUT THEMSELVES ON THE LINE FOR A
SPOT IN THE FINALS. IT'S MAKE OR BREAK FOR THEM
TONIGHT. SO SHOW THEM SOME LOVE.
OKAY. HERE'S A GROUP OF KIDS WHO HAVE
COME TOGETHER TO PURSUE THE PASSION THEY ALL SHARE, SINGING
A CAPPELLA. HERE'S ACAPOP.
WE'RE A GROUP OF KIDS FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY.
WE ALL HAVE THE SAME PASSION FOR SINGING AYE CAPELA.
NOW WE'RE ON THIS HUGE STAGE SINGING FOR A BUNCH OF PEOPLE.
IT'S JUST OUR VOICES. WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT HOPEFULLY.
WE'RE ON "AMERICA'S GOT TALENT" BECAUSE OUR DREAM IS TO
HOPEFULLY DO STUFF LIKE THIS EVERY NIGHT.
* LEMME GO * Heidi: THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL.
YOU MELD BEAUTIFULLY TOGETHER. Simon: IT WAS WHAT I CALL A
MOMENT. I LOVE YOU GUYS.
SEEING THE AUDIENCE STAND UP, IT WAS LIKE WOW.
PEOPLE CONNECT TO THIS. I'M GETTING CHILLS JUST
THINKING ABOUT IT. THERE ARE SO MANY TALENTED
SINGERS IN THE LIVE SHOWS. WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE THIS
PERFORMANCE TOPS OUR LAST ONE. THE RANGE IS MORE COMPLEX.
THERE'S MORE CHOREOGRAPHY. MAN DOWN.
MAYBE WE WON'T DO THAT. WE'RE SINGING ANOTHER
ORIGINAL. WE ALL CONTRIBUTED TO THIS SONG.
IT'S ABOUT NOT BEING AFRAID OF WHO YOU ARE.
EVERYBODY IS GONNA LOVE THIS BECAUSE WE'RE TRULY BEING
OURSELVES. PEOPLE THINK ACAPELLA ISN'T
COOL. WE'RE READY TO PUT OUR OWN TWIST
ON IT. WE OTHER GONNA CRUSH IT.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] * TELL ME WHAT'S ON YOUR MIND *
* REMEMBER WHEN YOU USED TO LAUGH SO HARD YOU CRIED *
* OH, HOW I MISS THAT SIDE * * YOU ARE IN THERE SOMEWHERE *
* IT ISN'T SOMETHING YOU'VE GOT TO HIDE *
* YOU ARE IN THERE SOMEWHERE * * WHEN I LOOK AT YOU I SEE
LIGHT * * EVEN WITH YOUR BROKEN PIECES *
* EVEN WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE YOU CAN'T TAKE NO MORE *
* EVEN IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE IT NOW JUST GO *
* YOU GLOW * * YOU GLOW *
* DON'T YOU KNOW THAT YOU GLOW * * GLOW *
* YOU'RE NOT BROKEN * * YOU'RE NOT FADED *
* KEEP YOUR HEART OPEN * * YOU'RE NOT FOOLISH *
* YOU ARE WORTH IT * * AND WE'RE GOING YOU'LL BE
GLOWING * * YOU'RE NOT BROKEN *
* YOU'RE NOT FADED * * KEEP YOUR HEART OPEN *
* YOU'RE NOT FOOLISH * * WHEN YOU DO IT YOU'LL BE
GLOWING * * EVEN WHEN YOU CAN'T TAKE NO
MORE * * EVEN IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE IT
NOW * * JUST GLOW *
* YOU GLOW * * YOU GLOW *
* DON'T YOU KNOW THAT YOU GLOW * * GLOW *
* WHOA * * OH *
* YOU GLOW * [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: ACAPOP. HOWIE, WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM,
MAN? Howie: THE ONLY THING THAT
WAS GLOWING FOR ME WAS THE RED X.
TO ME YOU HARMONIZE. YOU HAVE NICE VOICES.
I FELT LIKE I WAS AT A SCHOOL ASSEMBLY.
I DIDN'T DO GREAT IN SCHOOL. I DIDN'T DO GREAT DURING THAT
ACT. I'M SORRY.
IT DOESN'T RISE TO THE LEVEL OF "AGT" IN MY MIND.
Terry: HEIDI? Heidi: I DON'T AGREE WITH
HOWIE. I DON'T.
YOU CREATED SUCH A BEAUTIFUL SOUND TOGETHER.
I HAVE TO HIGHLIGHT THE SOLO PERFORMANCES.
I REALLY LIKED IT. I DON'T WANT TO POINT SOMEONE
OUT, BUT YOU IN THE PURPLE. SO GOOD.
I REALLY LIKED IT. I ALSO LIKED THE MESSAGE FOR
YOUNG PEOPLE OUT THERE. I REALLY LIKED IT.
Terry: SOFIA? Sofia: I HAVE TO SAY THAT I
PERSONALLY LIKED YOUR AUDITION MUCH MORE THAN TONIGHT, BUT THEN
I HAVE TO REMIND MYSELF THAT YOU GUYS ARE SINGING WITHOUT
INSTRUMENTS. IT'S ONLY YOUR VOICES.
Howie: HOW ELSE DO YOU SING? Sofia: THEY'RE PERFORMING
ACAPELLA. I THINK IT'S GREAT.
I THINK YOU GUYS DID A VERY GOOD JOB AND IT'S A RISK TO USE AGAIN
AN ORIGINAL SONG. Terry: SIMON?
Simon: THE GREAT PART ABOUT THE AUDITION WAS ONCE YOU GOT
BUZZED YOU GOT BETTER. IT WAS LIKE -- I WON'T SAY WHAT
I WAS GOING TO SAY. Howie: YOU'RE WELCOME.
Simon: IT'S TRUE. I UNDERSTAND WHY YOU DIDN'T LIKE
IT BECAUSE IT WASN'T A GREAT SONG.
I TELL YOU WHAT, I DON'T LIKE THE FACT THAT SOMEONE STYLED
YOU. YOU NEED TO STYLE YOURSELF.
YOU NEED TO BE IN CONTROL OF EVERYTHING WHEN YOU'RE IN A
GROUP. HOWEVER, YOUR RAW TALENT IS
UNBELIEVABLE I BELIEVE. I REALLY DO THINK SO.
IF YOU DO GET A CHANCE TO PERFORM AGAIN, I WOULD COME AND
DO AN INCREDIBLE COVER VERSION IN YOUR STYLE.
WEAR YOUR OWN CLOTHES. HAVE FUN AND BE WHO YOU ARE.
YOU'RE HUGELY TALENTED. Terry: ACAPOP, AFTER FOUR
YEARS OF SINGING AND PURSUING THIS DREAM, WHAT DID IT FEEL
LIKE FOR YOU GUYS TONIGHT? IT HONESTLY FELT SO AMAZING.
TRULY THIS HAS BEEN ONE OF THE BEST EXPERIENCES OF OUR LIVES.
WE'RE SO GRATEFUL TO BE HERE. Terry: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT,
EVERYBODY. LISTEN, THEY WANT TO BE IN THE
FINALS FIGHTING FOR $1 MILLION. SO VOTE FOR THEM.
IF YOU DON'T ALREADY HAVE THE "AGT" APP, YOU CAN DOWNLOAD IT
FROM THE APP STORE OR GOOGLE PLAY.
AFTER THE BREAK, A UNIQUE MAGICIAN HOPES HE CAN DANCE HIS
WAY INTO THE FINALS. IT'S JANNICK HOLSTE WHEN WE COME
BACK. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: EVERY PERFORMER DREAMS OF STARRING IN VEGAS, THE
ENTERTAINMENT CAPITAL OF THE WORLD AND THAT DREAM WILL COME
TRUE FOR THIS SEASON'S WINNER OF "AGT."
WHOEVER IT IS, THEY'LL BE STARRING IN OUR AMAZING SHOW,
"AGT LAS VEGAS LIVE." IT'S AT LUXOR.
IT'S ALREADY A BIG HIT AND YOU CAN GO SEE IT NOW.
GO TO NBC.COM/AGTVEGASLIVE FOR INFO AND TICKETS.
IT IS A MUST-SEE SHOW. VEGAS IS THE ULTIMATE DREAM FOR
THIS NEXT ACT. HE'S DANCING MATH STUDENT.
DON'T Y'ALL WISH YOU'D HAD ONE OF THEM WHEN YOU WERE IN SCHOOL?
BUT HIS REAL PASSION IS COMBINING DANCE WITH MAGIC.
HE'S FROM GERMANY. HE'S HEIDI'S BIGGEST FAN.
HE'S JANNICK HOLSTE. FOR MY AUDITION TO SEE HEIDI
IN PERSON IN REAL LIFE WAS A PRECIOUS MOMENT FOR ME.
HER CATWALK. HER PERSONALITY.
SHE'S NO PRETTY. SHE'S A QUEEN.
HEIDI WAS SINGING AND DANCING WITH US.
IT WAS SO GOOD. I WAS DREAMING ABOUT BEING A
PART OF "AMERICA'S GOT TALENT" SINCE I WAS A SMALL BOY.
I'M FROM A SMALL TOWN IN GERMANY.
I STARTED DANCING WHEN I WAS 6 YEARS OLD AND MAGIC AT 9 YEARS
OLD. I WANT TO BE DIFFERENT FROM
OTHER MAGICIANS. SO I DO MAGIC AND DANCE.
I TEACH ZUMBA, TRAMPOLINE AND HIP-HOP.
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. I'M A LITTLE CELEBRITY NOW.
THIS PERFORMANCE IS SO IMPORTANT FOR ME.
MAGICIANS HAVE DONE VERY WELL ON "AGT."
THERE'S A LOT OF PRESSURE. THIS PERFORMANCE I HAVE MORE
DANCERS, BIGGER PROPS, BIG DANCE PARTY, ALL OF IT IS BIGGER AND
BIGGER. MY DREAM IS TO WIN THE SHOW AND
TO WRITE MY OWN SONG WITH HEIDI AND THEN WE GO AROUND THE WORLD
ON OUR TOUR CALLED JANNICK'S WORLD WITH HEIDI.
TONIGHT I GIVE EVERYTHING I HAVE SO I CAN GO TO THE FINALS.
WE CAN DO THIS. LET'S GO.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
** **
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: JANNICK HOLSTE. THE JUDGES ARE ON THEIR FEET
NOW. YOU LIKE THAT HUH?
HEIDI? Heidi: I MEAN YOU REALLY ARE
EVERYTHING. YOU BRING EVERYTHING.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH. I SIT HERE AND THINK TO MYSELF
IS THIS THE BEST MAGIC ACT I'VE EVER SEEN?
I GO NO. IS IT THE BEST DANCE ACT I'VE
EVER SEEN? NO.
BUT IT'S SO FUN. Terry: SIMON, HOW IS YOUR
GERMAN? Simon: NOT VERY GOOD.
JANNICK, YOU'RE LIKE A CREAM CAKE.
YOUR MAGIC IS THE CAKE. YOUR DANCING IS THE CREAM.
THERE'S WAY TOO MUCH CREAM IN THE CAKE.
Heidi: THERE CAN NEVER BE ENOUGH CREAM IN THE CAKE.
Simon: A LITTLE LESS DANCING. MORE MAGIC.
FOR ME THAT WOULD HAVE GUARANTEED YOUR PLACE IN THE
FINALS BECAUSE OUR AUDIENCE LOVES MAGIC.
YOU'RE 20 YEARS OLD, REALLY TALENTED, ARE CHARISMATIC.
I JUST THINK THE DANCING IS HORRIBLE.
Terry: HOWIE, YOU WERE ON YOUR FEET.
Howie: I WAS. SIMON, YOU GOT TO LEAN INTO IT.
THIS IS THE CHEESIEST, CAMPIEST, MOST FUN MAGIC ACT I'VE EVER
SEEN IN MY LIFE. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: SOFIA, DO YOU AGREE? Sofia: I DON'T KNOW WHAT GOES
ON WHEN HE GETS ON THAT STAGE. IS IT BAD?
IS IT GOOD? I DON'T EVEN KNOW, BUT I ENJOY
IT. YOU ARE GREAT.
Terry: JANNICK, YOU GOT A CHANCE TO PERFORM FOR YOUR IDOL,
HEIDI KLUM. HOW DO YOU FEEL?
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. WE LOVE YOU, HEIDI.
Terry: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT, JANNICK.
LISTEN, THE FINALS ARE IN TWO WEEKS.
JANNICK WANTS TO BE THERE FIGHTING FOR $1 MILLION AND A
VEGAS SHOW. SO VOTE FOR HIM.
COMING UP, A YOUNG BREAK-OUT SINGER ALL THE WAY FROM ENGLAND
AND LATER, AN INCREDIBLE SINGING IMPRESSIONIST, IT'S
LEE COLLINSON AND MERISSA BEDDOWS.
STAY RIGHT TH **
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: THIS SINGER'S
MOTIVATION TO COME TO AMERICA TO CHANGE HIS LIFE COMES FROM THE
BEST POSSIBLE SOURCE, HIS MOM. HE IS LEE COLLINSON.
I'M FROM SOUTH HAMPTON IN ENGLAND.
I COME HERE BECAUSE "AGT" IS A BIG STAGE.
IT'S THE BIGGEST IN THE WORLD. IT'S WHAT I WANT TO BE DOING.
GETTING A STANDING OVATION, I CAN'T EXPLAIN IT.
IT WAS NUTS. TO HEAR THE WORDS SIMON SAID --
Simon: YOU PROBABLY DON'T KNOW HOW GOOD YOU ARE.
I WAS A BIT SHOCKED. THAT'S THE BIGGEST PERFORMANCE
I'VE DONE SO FAR. Simon: CAN WE CALL YOUR MUM
WITH YOU? OH MY GOODNESS.
MUM, LOOK. MY MUM'S MY BIGGEST SUPPORTER.
EVERY TIME I TALK TO MY MUM ABOUT SINGING, SHE CRIES.
SHE KNOWS I LOVE IT. I JUST WANT TO BE OUT THERE
MAKING MUSIC ALL THE TIME. I WANT TO BE IN THE STUDIO.
I WANT TO BE SINGING ON STAGE. "AGT" 100% CAN HELP ME REACH
THAT DREAM. TONIGHT I'M SINGING LAUREN
SPENCER SMITH'S "FLOWERS." THE SONG TAKES ME BACK.
IT WAS ME, MY MUM AND SIBLINGS. SHE STRUGGLED.
I WANT HER TO KNOW HOW STRONG SHE IS.
SHE'S SO ON THE GO ALL THE TIME. I DON'T THINK SHE GETS TOLD
ENOUGH. I OWE THIS WHOLE THING TO MY
MUM. SHE BELIEVES IN ME A LOT.
I WANT HER TO KNOW THIS SONG IS FOR HER.
I LOVE HER FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART.
SHE MEANS THE WORLD TO ME. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
* TOOK ME OVER TO YOUR HOUSE TO MEET YOUR FAMILY *
* INTRODUCED ME TO THEM SAYING YOU WOULD MARRY ME *
* THEN YOU LOOKED ME IN THE EYES AND SAID IT'S A JOKE *
* THEN YOU KISSED ME AND I SMILED *
* WHEN YOU SAY THE KINDEST THING I WOULD BE EXCITED *
* GOT ME HOPING ONE DAY BABY YOU WOULD MEAN IT *
* ALWAYS THOUGHT YOU WOULD MAKE A FOOL OF SOMEONE ELSE *
* NOW YOU'VE MADE ME MAKE ONE OF MYSELF *
* I KISS THE FLOWERS * * I'M USED TO BIG APOLOGIES *
* I GUESS I SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE CONSCIOUS HOW YOU SPOKE TO
ME * * FOR A WHILE I THOUGHT IT'S
WHAT I SHOULD APPRECIATE * * MAYBE I WAS HOLDING ON TO WHAT
I THOUGHT YOU WERE * * WHEN YOU THINK TOO HARD IT'S
GOT TO HURT * * PEOPLE FALL FOR THE WRONG
PEOPLE * * GUESS I WAS WRONG ABOUT YOU *
* I WAS GETTING ANY FLIGHT SO WE COULD MAKE IT WORK *
* YOU IGNORED ME * * I HATE MYSELF FOR JUSTIFYING
YOUR MISTAKES * * IT TOOK A MINUTE BUT I LEARNED
THE HARD WAY * * WHO ARE YOU TO TELL ME I CAN'T
BE HEART BROKEN * * YOU HAD THE CHANCE *
* IF IT'S WHAT YOU NEED TO TELL YOURSELF TO SLEEP AT NIGHT *
* THAT I HAVEN'T FOUND SOMEONE THAT FINALLY TREATS ME RIGHT *

APOLOGIES * * I SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE
CONSCIOUS HOW YOU SPOKE TO ME * * FOR A WHILE I THOUGHT IT'S
WHAT I SHOULD APPRECIATE * * WHEN YOU THINK TOO HARD
EVENTUALLY IT STARTS TO HURT * * PEOPLE FALL FOR THE WRONG
PEOPLE * * GUESS I WAS WRONG ABOUT YOU *

YOURSELF * * IF IT HURTS YOU CAN LEAVE AND
GO AND GET SOME HELP * [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: LEE COLLINSON. SIMON?
Simon: LEE, THIS IS A BIG DEAL FOR YOU, ISN'T IT?
YOUR AUDITION WAS AMAZING. I REALLY LIKE YOU.
I LOVED YOUR VOICE. THIS I DIDN'T LIKE.
I DIDN'T LIKE -- I'LL TELL YOU WHY.
I UNDERSTAND THE SENTIMENT OF THE SONG.
HOWEVER, IT DIDN'T SOUND LIKE IT WAS THE RIGHT KEY FOR YOU.
IT SOUNDED LIKE YOU WERE READING A LETTER.
YOU'VE GOT A GOOD VOICE. YOU KNOW, LAST WEEK WITH SARAH
WHEN SHE SANG "ROCKETMAN" THAT WAS A MOMENT.
FOR WHATEVER REASON YOU OVERTHOUGHT THE SONG CHOICE.
I'M NOT VOTING, BUT I DON'T THINK YOU GOT IT RIGHT TONIGHT,
LEE. Terry: HOWIE, WHAT DO YOU
THINK? Howie: I DON'T DISAGREE WITH
SIMON. YOU HAVE THE TOOL.
WE HEARD IT IN THE AUDITION. WHAT I THINK IS IMPORTANT IS ON
THIS SHOW BECAUSE ONLY TWO ARE GOING THROUGH IS TO STAND OUT.
YOU PICKED A SONG THAT -- THE SONG ITSELF NO RANGE.
IF I WAS LISTENING TO THAT ON THE RADIO, I WOULD HAVE TURNED
THE CHANNEL BECAUSE THE SONG BORED ME, NOT YOU.
I THINK YOU DIDN'T MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE.
Terry: HEIDI? Heidi: IT IS DEFINITELY
DIFFERENT WITH YOU. I THINK YOUR VOICE IS SWEET.
IT'S PURE. IT'S NOT AS POLISHED MAYBE AS
SOME OF THE SINGERS ARE. I ALSO THINK IT'S SWEET TO HEAR
YOUR ENGLISH ACCENT CREEP IN EVERY NOW AND THEN.
I HAVE A DIFFERENT CONNECTION WITH YOU WHEN YOU SING.
I LIKED IT. IT'S DIFFERENT.
IT WAS DIFFERENT. Terry: SOFIA?
Sofia: THERE'S SOMETHING SO ADORABLE ABOUT YOU.
YOU MAKE US LIKE I COULDN'T. WE WERE ROOTING FOR YOU.
YOU WERE SO SPECIAL AND SO AMAZING IN THE AUDITIONS.
MAYBE THIS WAS A LITTLE BIT OF DISAPPOINTMENT BECAUSE OF THE
SONG, BUT I THINK YOU'RE GREAT. Terry: LEE, NEVER MIND THE
JUDGES. DO YOU THINK YOU MADE YOUR
MOTHER PROUD WITH YOUR PERFORMANCE TONIGHT?
YEAH, 100%. I'M GOING TO GO BACK AND CALL
HER. THANKS VERY MUCH.
Terry: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT, LEE.
TONIGHT, YOU'VE GOT TO PICK TWO ACTS FROM 11 FOR THE FINALS.
GET ONLINE AT NBC.COM OR USE THE "AGT" APP AND MAKE SURE YOUR
FAVORITES GET THROUGH. DOES LEE DESERVE A SPOT?
IF YOU THINK HE DOES, VOTE FOR HIM.
IN A JUST A FEW MINUTES, VENTRILOQUIST JACK WILLIAMS
FACES THE TOUGHEST NIGHT OF HIS CAREER.
CAN HE GET YOU VOTING?
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: UP NEXT IS A
VENTRILOQUIST. IT'S ONLY THE SECOND TIME HE'S
PERFORMED IN FRONT OF AN AUDIENCE.
HE'S FROM INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA. HE'S JACK WILLIAMS.
I DEVOTED MY WHOLE LIFE TO THIS.
MAKING A LIVING AS A PERFORMER IS REALLY, REALLY HARD.
A YEAR AGO I WAS WORKING A RETAIL JOB AND TRYING TO AFFORD
MY RENT. THERE WAS A POINT WHERE I DIDN'T
THINK MY DREAM WAS GOING TO COME TRUE.
THAT'S WHEN I WAS LIKE, OKAY, I'LL DO SOCIAL MEDIA.
WITHIN TWO MONTHS I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT I HIT A MILLION
FOLLOWERS. IT WAS PRETTY CRAZY.
ALL THE GREAT VENTRILOQUISTS DO LIVE PERFORMANCES.
I ALWAYS WANTED TO BE ON "AMERICA'S GOT TALENT."
I WAS LIKE THIS IS A NOW OR NEVER MOMENT.
THAT MEANS I HAVE YOUR VOICE. Terry: THE JUDGES ARE ON
THEIR FEET. TO GET THAT REACTION BLEW MY
MIND. MY DREAM IS COMING TRUE.
IN THE LIVE SHOWS I WANT TO DO SOMETHING BETTER.
UNFORTUNATELY ME AND MY PARTNER FOSTER BROKE UP.
I HAVE A NEW GUY. HE'S GOING TO BLOW EVERYONE
AWAY. THE COMPETITION IS SO TOUGH.
IT'S MY TURN TO GO ON THE STAGE AND IT'S TERRIFYING.
HAVING MY OWN RESIDENCY IN VEGAS IS MY ULTIMATE DREAM.
THIS IS MY MOMENT TO SHOW SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
I'M GOING TO GIVE THIS EVERYTHING I'VE GOT.
I HAVE TO DO THIS FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.
THIS IS MY CALLING NOW. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
THANK YOU. GUYS, IT IS GREAT TO BE BACK.
THIS IS MY NEW BEST FRIEND DALE. HOWDY Y'ALL.
I WANTED TO BE REALLY CLASSY TONIGHT SO I DECIDED TO WEAR
PANTS. OKAY.
WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING SOME FAN-SUBMITTED VENTRILOQUIST
CHALLENGES. YOU SUCK.
BUSTER, WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
I TOLD YOU NOT TO COME HERE. WE BROKE UP.
OH, THAT'S SO SAD. OKAY.
LET'S SEE WHAT THE FIRST CHALLENGE IS.
CAN YOU SAY THE LONGEST WORD IN THE DICTIONARY WITHOUT MOVING
YOUR LIPS. THAT WORD MAKES MY BRAIN
HURT. I'LL SAY IT.
NO, YOU WON'T FOSTER. YOU'RE NOT GOING TO SAY THAT
WITHOUT MOVING YOUR MOUTH. YOU WON'T SAY --
LET'S SEE WHAT THE NEXT CHALLENGE IS.
CAN YOU BOTH TALK AT THE SAME TIME?
ARE YOU READY, BUDDY? I THINK SO.
THREE, TWO, ONE. [ BURPS ]
THEATER IS CRYING RIGHT NOW. THAT IS IT.
I'VE HAD ENOUGH FROM YOU FOSTER. I'M GOING TO PUT YOU AWAY FOR A
SECOND DALE. I WANT TO SIT WITH SOFIA.
STAY THERE. I'VE HAD ENOUGH.
COME AND GET ME JEPETTO. THIS IS IMPOSSIBLE.
WHAT'S IMPOSSIBLE IS YOUR HAIRLINE.
YOU KNOW WHAT, THAT'S ENOUGH. WHAT'S YOUR PLAN?
READ THE CHALLENGE. WHAT?
READ THE CHALLENGE. TALK AT THE SAME TIME, YES.
IT'S NOT POSSIBLE. NO, IT IS.
YES, IT IS. I CAN'T TALK AT THE SAME TIME
AS ME. I CAN'T TALK AT THE SAME TIME
AS YOU. THEN WHO'S THE ONE TALKING
RIGHT NOW? WHAT'S THE FINAL CHALLENGE?
CAN YOU TAKE FOSTER'S VOICE AND GIVE HIM A NEW ONE?
NO. WE HAVE DID THAT IN THE FIRST
AUDITION. OH, IT'S PAYBACK TIME.
I'M GOING TO TAKE YOUR VOICE. NO, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO TAKE
MY -- IT DOESN'T FEEL GOOD, DOES
IT? NOW I CAN MAKE YOU SOUND HOW I
WANT YOU TO SOUND. HOW ABOUT LIKE SIMON?
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY DREADFUL. OR, OR, OR, OR HOW ABOUT
SOMEONE RANDOM, LIKE, OBAMA? NOW, THIS IS ME DRAWING A RED
LINE. BUT, BUT, BUT THIS IS MY
FAVORITE VOICE OF YOURS. SILENCE.
THANK YOU! [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: JACK WILLIAMS.
HOWIE? Howie: YOU KNOW, JACK, YOU'RE
VERY GOOD. IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT THIS
IS NEW TO YOU IN FRONT OF A LIVE AUDIENCE BECAUSE YOU SEEM TO BE
PRETTY SLICK AND THE ABILITY TO DO IT.
I DON'T THINK IT'S AS ORIGINAL AS I WOULD LIKE TO SEE.
IT DOESN'T BLOW ME AWAY. MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE IN YOUR
PACKAGE YOU MENTIONED THE LADY WE HAD ON LAST WEEK.
THAT BLEW ME AWAY. I WASN'T BLOWN AWAY.
I THINK YOU'RE REALLY GOOD. HOPEFULLY AMERICA LOVES YOU.
IT'S UP TO THEM TO VOTE. YOU'RE LUCKY I'M NOT VOTING.
Terry: HEIDI? Heidi: I'M HAPPY YOU
INTRODUCED THE VOICES OF SIMON AND OBAMA.
FOR ME IT WAS HARD TO DIFFERENTIATE YOUR VOICES AND
YOUR TWO FRIENDS. TO ME THE VOICES SOUNDED TOO
SIMILAR. I LIKE THAT YOU ADDED TWO OTHER
VOICES IN THERE. Terry: SOFIA?
Sofia: I THOUGHT YOU WERE GREAT.
I LOVED IT. I THOUGHT IT WAS CHALLENGING FOR
YOU TO DO THIS AND TO HAVE THE TWO DIFFERENT PUPPETS WAS
AMAZING. I LOVED IT.
I THINK THAT WAS A LOT OF FUN. Terry: SIMON, YOU WERE ON
YOUR FEET. Simon: I'LL TELL YOU WHY.
JACK, I LIKED YOUR AUDITION. I DIDN'T LOVE IT.
TONIGHT YOU WERE BETTER THAN YOUR AUDITION.
I THINK YOU WERE REALLY CLEVER. I THINK THE WAY YOU SPACED
EVERYTHING IT WAS FUNNY. PEOPLE LOVE THIS KIND OF ACT.
FOR ME THIS HAS BEEN THE BEST BY A MILE TONIGHT.
Terry: NOW, JACK, YOU SAID YOUR DREAM WOULD BE TO MAKE THE
FINALS. HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE ONE STEP
CLOSER? I STILL HAVE HIS VOICE.
YEAH, YEAH. SO I -- HE'S NOT GETTING IT
BACK. IT'S ALL MY PLAN AND IT'S GOING
ACCORDING TO PLAN. YEAH, LET'S DO IT.
Terry: ALL RIGHT. GOOD LUCK TONIGHT, JACK.
LISTEN, THE MATH IS SIMPLE TONIGHT.
11 ACTS ARE PERFORMING. TWO WILL GO INTO THE FINALS, AND
NINE WILL GO HOME. THE RACE IS ON.
VOTING IS ALREADY OPEN AND YOU CAN VOTE UP TO TEN TIMES FOR
EACH ACT WITH BOTH OF THE VOTING METHODS.
SO GO VOTE. STILL TO COME, A SINGING ACT
WITH THREE INCREDIBLY FAMOUS PERFORMERS.
LATER, A YOUNG COMEDIAN GETS TO PERFORM FOR YOU AMERICA.
IT'S ME THAT PHYSICS A **
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: I'VE NEVER SEEN SIMON
COULD GET TO HIS FEET SO FAST. HERE'S METAPHYSICS.
Simon: WHAT'S YOUR TALENT? THE AUDITION WAS GREAT.
THE WAY SIMON REACTING WAS AMAZING LIKE HE'S PART OF THE
ACT. Simon: IS THIS SUCH A THING
AS A PERFECT CONTESTANT? A GREAT SINGER WHO LOOKS
INCREDIBLE. FOR ME PERSONALLY THAT'S WHY
I DO IT. I WANT TO MAKE PEOPLE SMILE.
WE REALLY WANT TO GET TO THE GRAND FINALE.
TONIGHT WE HAVE TO AMAZE PEOPLE ONCE AGAIN.
WHAT WE'RE DOING ON "AGT" IS THE MOST ADVANCED AI CREATION.
IT'S SOPHISTICATED IN TERMS OF THE AI BUILDING ITS OWN
UNDERSTANDING OF HOW A HUMAN'S FACE WORKS BASED ON THE DATA.
WE LOVE DOING THIS. THIS TECHNOLOGY, THIS
PERFORMANCE WILL BE AMAZING AT A LIVE SHOW IN VEGAS.
IMAGINE IF WE COULD BRING BACK THE MOST FAMOUS
ENTERTAINERS LIVE ON STAGE PERFORMING.
WE WANT TO MAKE SURE IT'S EVER.
IT HAS TO BE PERFECT. TONIGHT WE WANT TO MAKE THE
IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
** **
[ SINGING IN NON-ENGLISH ] [ SINGING IN NON-ENGLISH ]
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: METAPHYSICS. THAT WAS INCREDIBLE.
SIMON, WE'RE A GROUP, MAN. Simon: WE ARE.
I MEAN, WE ALWAYS HAVE BEEN. NOW WE'VE TAKEN IT TO A
DIFFERENT LEVEL, T. PUTTING ALL THIS -- IT'S A WEIRD
ONE TO JUDGE, BUT LET ME -- IN TERMS OF TALENT, ORIGINALITY, I
HAVE TO SAY SOMETHING. THIS IS NOT THE BEST ACT OF THE
NIGHT. Howie: OH, YES, IT IS.
Simon: THIS IS THE BEST ACT, I BELIEVE, OF THE SERIES SO FAR.
Terry: I AGREE. Simon: I DO.
ORIGINALITY, LOOKS. Terry: IT WAS BEAUTIFUL.
HOWIE? Howie: IT WAS AMAZING.
Terry: IT'S US, MAN. Howie: IT'S LIKE EL DIVO, BUT
IT'S EL STUPIDO. THE FACT THAT YOU HAD THE
GUMPTION TO USE MY OWN VOICE IS AMAZING.
THAT TAKES GUTS. IT WORKED.
I TOLD YOU I COULD DO IT. Terry: HEIDIHEIDI, HOW GREAT
WE? Heidi: EPIC.
IT WAS AN EPIC MOMENT. TO YOU GUYS SINGING, BEAUTIFUL
SINGING. THE OPERA WAS AMAZING.
THEN WHEN YOU GOT THE FACES RIGHT HERE, IT'S JUST EPIC.
THE WHOLE THING -- Howie: I WAS ABLE TO
HARMONIZE. Terry: SOFIA?
Sofia: IT'S SCARY AND FASCINATING AT THE SAME TIME.
I THINK YOU GUYS DID A GREAT JOB TONIGHT.
Terry: METAPHYSICS, YOU PUT TOGETHER THE GREATEST
PERFORMANCE IN "AGT" HISTORY. HOW ARE YOU GOING TO TOP THAT?
HOW? IT'S IMPOSSIBLE.
SO BEFORE WE GO, SO GLAD YOU GUYS LOVED IT.
NEXT TIME ON THE STAGE WE'RE GOING TO BRING BACK ONE OF THE
GREATEST ROCK 'N ROLL ICONS OF ALL TIME AND MAYBE WE'LL SEE
HEIDI AND SOFIA SING. Terry: OH, YES.
GOOD LUCK TONIGHT GUYS. ARE YOU STOKED TO SEE WHAT THEY
DO NEXT? WILL IT BE WORTH $1 MILLION TO
FIND OUT? YOU HAVE TO PUT THEM INTO THE
FINALS. GO TO NBC.COM AND VOTE AND GET
ON THE "AGT" APP AND VOTE. ONLY TWO ACTS CAN GO THROUGH.
THE DECISIONS ARE YOURS. VOTE FOR THEM.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] **
Terry: COMING UP -- Howie: IT WAS THE ENGLISH
VERSION OF JACK ASS. Sofia: I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS
GOING ON. Heidi: YOU WERE LAUGHING,
WERE YOU NOT? Sofia: NO.
Howie: YOU'RE A GREAT
** [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: AT THE AUDITIONS, SIMON WAS THE ONLY JUDGE TO GIVE
THIS ACT A STANDING OVATION. ON THE OTHER HAND, HEIDI SAID IT
WAS A HOT MESS AND WANTED TO SEE IF IT COULD GET ANY WORSE.
WE'RE ABOUT TO FIND OUT WHO'S RIGHT.
AND PLEASE, DO NOT TRY ANYTHING YOU SEE AT HOME.
FROM LONDON, ENGLAND, HERE'S THE LAZY GENERATION.
WE'RE THE LAZIY GENERATION FROM THE UK AND WE'RE A GROUP OF
PROFESSIONAL NOW IDIOTS. IT'S A GREAT JOB.
BEST JOB TITLE. WE'VE BEEN DOING STUPID
STUNTS TOGETHER SINCE WE WERE LITTLE KIDS.
WE CHOSE TO COME TO "AMERICA'S GOT TALENT" BECAUSE
WE FEEL THIS IS THE PLACE WHERE YOU CAN DO REALLY CRAZY THINGS.
THERE'S A LOT OF GENUINE DANGER INVOLVED IN OUR
PERFORMANCES. THEY'RE NOT FAKE.
THE STUNTS ARE VERY, VERY REAL. SEEING SIMON STAND UP AND
GIVE US A STANDING OVATION, THAT'S THE CLAIM TO FAME.
Simon: THAT WAS THE BRITISH EQUIVALENT OF THE BALLET.
WE JUST WANTED TO CAUSE PURE CHAOS WITH OUR AUDITION.
I RECKON WE DID THAT. WE WANT TO SHOW AMERICA WE'RE
MORE THAN JUST A BUNCH OF HOOLIGANS.
WE ALSO HAVE A SOPHISTICATED SIDE.
WE KNOW HOW TO BEHAVE LIKE PROPER ENGLISH GENTLEMEN.
KNOWING THAT SIMON HAS OUR BACKS IS AMAZING BUT IT ALSO
ADDS A LOT OF PRESSURE TO TONIGHT'S PERFORMANCE.
MORE THAN ANYTHING WE DON'T WANT TO LET HIM DOWN.
WE'RE GOING TO TAKE IT UP A NOTCH, BUT THE STAKES ARE TOUGH.
WE'RE STEPPING OUT OF OUR COMFORT ZONE BY BRINGING A HIGH
CLASS PERFORMANCE TO THE "AGT" STAGE.
THIS POSH STUFF ISN'T CHEAP. WE NEED TO IMPRESS AMERICA AND
WIN THAT $1 MILLION. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
** **
[ BUZZER ] **
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THIS IS
THE CACTUS TUG OF WAR. DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME.
BOYS, ARE YOU READY? BOYS, ARE YOU READY?
ALL RIGHT THEN ON THE COUNT OF THREE -- THREE, TWO, ONE --
[ WHISTLE ] COME ON, BOYS.
YOU'VE GOT THIS. PULL, PULL, PULL.
SCREW IT. COME ON, BOYS.
YOU READY? THREE, TWO, ONE, PULL.
** **
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: THE LAZY GENERATION.
OH, HEY, WATCH THAT, MAN. WATCH THAT.
SIMON? Simon: I THOUGHT THAT WAS
BEAUTIFUL. NORMALLY WHEN AN ACT DOES
SOMETHING COURAGEOUS, WHICH YOU DID, I WOULD SAY YOU'VE GOT
BALLS. HOWEVER, I DON'T THINK YOU'VE
GOT ANY AFTER THAT. I THOUGHT IT WAS A STEP UP FROM
THE FIRST AUDITION. THIS IS NOT TO EVERYONE'S
LIKING. Sofia: NO.
Simon: HOWEVER, IT'S DIFFERENT.
YOU RISKED YOUR LIVES. THERE WERE CACTUSES.
Sofia: THEY DIDN'T RISK THEIR LIVES.
THEY RISKED THEIR BALLS. Terry: SOFIA, YOU BUZZED.
WHY DID YOU BUZZ TO LAZIY GENERATION?
Sofia: I'M SORRY. I FEEL IT'S A NECESSARY THING.
MY HUSBAND LOVED IT.
MY SON LOVED IT DURING THE AUDITION.
IT'S NOT SOMETHING I EVER WANTED TO SEE EVER AGAIN.
Terry: HOWIE, HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THIS?
Howie: I CAN ONLY DESCRIBE IT WITH ONE WORD.
NUTS. Terry: HEIDI, HOW DO YOU LIKE
THEM THIS TIME? Heidi: I DON'T KNOW IF WE
SHOULD BE ENCOURAGING THIS STUFF, BUT AT THE SAME TIME I
COULDN'T LOOK AWAY. SO WERE YOU GUYS.
IT WAS A HOT MESS, BUT EVERYONE LOVED IT.
Terry: LAZY GENERATION, YOU GOT A STANDING OVATION.
WHY CACTUS? WHY NOT?
Terry: MAKES A LOT OF SENSE. GOOD LUCK TONIGHT, GENTLEMEN.
TO VOTE FOR THESE GUYS ONLINE, HEAD OVER TO NBC.COM.
VOTING IS LIMITED TO TEN VOTES PER ACT PER METHOD.
ONLY TWO ACTS CAN GO THROUGH. IT'S ALL UP TO YOU.
STILL TO COME, TWO AMAZING SINGERS.
FIRST, IT'S THE INCREDIBLE MERISSA BEDDOWS AND HER
SENSATIONAL VOCAL IMPRESSIONS. THEN LATER, IT'S HEIDI'S GOLDEN
BUZZER LILY MEOLA.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: THIS ACT STARTED
CREATING CHARACTERS AND DOING VOICES AS A KID, TO MAKE HER MOM
LAUGH. NOW SHE'S HOPING TO MAKE ALL OF
YOU LAUGH TOO. FROM YONKERS, NEW YORK, HERE'S
MERISSA BEDDOWS. WHEN I WAS IN FIRST GRADE, I
CAME UP WITH THIS VOICE. I HAD A WHOLE BUNCH OF DIFFERENT
CHARACTERS. WE THESE VOICES I WOULD MAKE MY
MOM LAUGH AND IT WORKED EVERY SINGLE TIME.
AS I GOT OLDER, I IMPERSONATED JACKIE WHEN SHE SANG ON THE
"AGT" STAGE. I REALIZED AT THAT MOMENT THAT
THIS IS SOMETHING I WANTED TO DO FOREVER.
ARIANA GRANDE. * OVER THE RAINBOW *
AFTER MY PERFORMANCE, THINGS BLEW UP FOR ME.
"PEOPLE" MAGAZINE WROTE ABOUT ME, BILLBOARD, "THE TODAY SHOW."
MY MOM IS VERY PROUD. MY MOTHER HAS A HISTORY OF
MEDICAL ISSUES. RECENTLY IT'S GOTTEN VERY BAD.
I'VE BEEN CARE GIVING BY MYSELF. THIS PERFORMANCE IS BEYOND
IMPORTANT FOR ME TO MAKE THE FINALS.
THERE ARE NOT A LOT OF IMPRESSIONISTS IN LAS VEGAS
RIGHT NOW. I FEEL THAT MY ACT WOULD THRIVE.
TONIGHT, I'M GOING TO GIVE A VEGAS SHOW WITH THE VOICES OF
THE WOMEN WHO INSPIRED ME. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
[SINGING IN NON-ENGLISH] * THE WIND WAS SO COLD *
* LISTEN TO IT RIGHT OUTSIDE THE WINDOW *
* BABY, BABY, BABY * * WHEN YOU TOUCH ME LIKE THIS *
* WHEN YOU HOLD ME LIKE THAT * * IT WAS GONE WITH THE WIND BUT
IT'S ALL COMING BACK TO ME NOW * * IF I COULD TURN BACK TIME *
* IF I COULD FIND A WAY * * I WOULD TAKE BACK THOSE WORDS
THAT HURT YOU AND YOU WOULD STAY *
* HOW CAN YOU SEE INTO MY MIND THROUGH BROKEN DOORS *
* BEATING ME DOWN INTO MY CORE * * WAKE ME UP INSIDE *
* CALL MY NAME AND SAVE ME FROM
THE DARK * * ALL YOU SEE IS VIOLENCE IN
MOVIES AND SEX ON TVs * [SINGING IN NON-ENGLISH]
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: MERISSA BEDDOWS.
SOFIA? Sofia: I THINK YOUR VOICES
ARE SO SPECTACULAR. THEY'RE SO SPOT ON.
I JUST WISH THAT YOU HAD CREATED A LITTLE STORY WITH IT LIKE YOU
DID IN THE AUDITION, BUT I LOVE WHAT YOU DID.
Terry: SIMON? Simon: MERISSA, I THINK
YOU'RE SUPER, SUPER TALENTED. MY ONLY ISSUE IS YOUR FILM WAS
REALLY -- YOUR PERSONALITY DIDN'T COME OUT IN THE FILM.
I STILL DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE. YOU'RE SO TALENTED.
I THINK YOU'RE FUNNY, BUT FOR SOME REASON WE DON'T KIND OF
KNOW YOU PROPERLY. HOW MUCH DOES THIS MEAN TO YOU?
IT MEANS THE ENTIRE WORLD TO ME, ABSOLUTELY THE ENTIRE WORLD
TO ME. THIS IS -- LET ME SHOW YOU WHO I
AM. THIS HAS CHANGED MY LIFE,
ABSOLUTELY. I DON'T THINK I'VE EVER HAD A
BETTER EXPERIENCE THAN THIS ONE. IT'S CHANGED MY LIFE FOREVER.
IT'S MADE ME THE ARTIST WHO I CURRENTLY AM RIGHT NOW.
Simon: I THINK THIS IS BETTER THAN HER AUDITION.
Terry: HOWIE? Howie: YOU KNOW WHAT, I THINK
TECHNICALLY, MAYBE. MY ISSUE WAS IN THE AUDITION
BECAUSE OF THE GIMMICK OF YOU HOLDING THE BOX, I MISSED A
COUPLE OF THEM. I LIKE TO KNOW AS AN AUDIENCE --
I KNEW CHER AND CELINE DION. I DIDN'T KNOW ONE OF THEM.
I THINK YOU'RE REALLY TALENTED AND AMERICA HAS TO CHOICE.
Terry: HEIDI? Heidi: I LIKE YOU.
I HAVE THINK YOU'RE A WOMAN A MANY DIFFERENT TALENTS.
I LOVE THAT "AGT" INSPIRED YOU TO START SINGING OPERA.
Terry: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT, MERISSA.
LISTEN, WINNING "AGT" IS THE GATEWAY TO EVERYTHING YOU'VE
EVER WANTED AS A PERFORMER. BUT YOU'VE GOT TO BE IN THE
FINALS TO WIN WITH A SHOT. IF YOU WANT TO HELP MERISSA MAKE
HER DREAM COME TRUE, VOTE. YOU'VE GOT UNTIL 7:00 A.M.
EASTERN TOMORROW. Terry: COMING UP --
WHY IS IT WHEN YOU HATE YOUR JOB, THEY WON'T FIRE YOU?
Howie: EVERYTHING YOU SAY IS
MEMORABLE, AUTHENTIC. Sofia: THEY LOVE YOU.
[ APPLAUSE ]
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: WHEN AN ACT WALKS OUT
AT THE AUDITIONS, THE JUDGES HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY'RE GOING
TO SEE. BUT EVEN THEY WEREN'T PREPARED
FOR WHAT CAME NEXT WITH THIS SINGER.
FROM BURNHAM-ON-SEA IN ENGLAND, HERE'S HARPER.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] FOR MY AUDITION I FELT
NERVOUS. I HEARD SOFIA SAY HOW SWEET SHE
IS. WHEN I STARTED SINGING, SIMON
FELL OUT OF HIS SEAT. I'VE SEEN LOTS OF VIDEOS OF HIM
GOING X. I THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO BE,
LIKE, YEAH, IT WAS OKAY. HE WAS NICE.
Simon: THAT WAS BRILLIANT. I MEAN BRILLIANT.
THANK YOU. THE AUDITIONS CHANGED MY
LIFE. ON SOCIAL MEDIA I HAD 100 VIEWS
AND IT TURNED INTO 200 AND THEN 2,000 HUNDRED.
2,000 HUNDRED? THEN IT WENT OVER 20 MILLION
VIEWS. I LOVE HEAVY METAL MUSIC.
TO BE HONEST I USED TO HATE IT. THEN I STARTED SINGING IT.
I WAS LIKE OH, MY GOD I LOVE THIS SO MUCH.
IT'S MY NEW ADDICTION. FOR THIS AUDITION I'M GOING TO
SHOW THE JUDGES I HAVE ANOTHER SIDE OF MYSELF.
I'M GOING TO BE SINGING "BAD HABITS" BY ED SHEERAN.
I CHOSE IT BECAUSE I WANT TO SHOW THEM I'M NOT ONLY A
SHOUTER. I'M A SINGER TOO.
I'M GOING TO TAKE WHATEVER IT TAKES FOR ME TO GET TO THE
FINALS. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
* EVERY TIME YOU COME AROUND YOU KNOW YOU CAN'T SAY NO *
* EVERY TIME THE SUN GOES DOWN YOU LET ME TAKE CONTROL *
* YOU CAN BUILD A PARADISE BEFORE WORLD IS CLOSED *
* TONIGHT I HAVE SOMETHING I WANT YOU TO KNOW *
* BAD HABITS LEAD TO YOU * * YOU *
* BAD HABITS LEAD TO YOU * * BAD HABITS LEAD TO YOU *
* YOU TOOK THE LONG WAY ROUND * * TIL THE FUN RAN OUT *
* BAD HABITS LEAD TO YOU * * BAD HABITS LEAD TO YOU *
* YOU *
* BAD HABITS LEAD TO YOU * [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: HARPER. HOWIE?
Howie: LISTEN, I KNOW THAT YOU'RE GOING TO RACK UP ANOTHER
20 MILLION AND THIS WILL GO VIRAL.
THE ONLY FEAR THAT I HAVE IS GOD FORBID ONE DAY YOU'RE IN REAL
TROUBLE AND NOBODY IS GOING TO COME BECAUSE THEY'LL JUST THINK
YOU'RE SINGING ACAPELLA. I THINK THERE'S AN AUDIENCE FOR
THIS. THERE REALLY IS.
Terry: HEIDI? Heidi: I HAVE TO SAY METAL IS
MAYBE NOT MY PERSONAL FAVORITE MUSIC, BUT IT IS FASCINATING --
Terry: STOP IT. Sofia: STOP IT.
Heidi: IT'S FASCINATING TO WATCH YOU.
Terry: SOFIA? Sofia: I REALLY THINK THAT
WHAT IS SO DISTURBING TO ME IS -- HOW EFFORTLESS IT COMES
OUT OF HER LITTLE BODY. TO ME THAT'S CRAZY.
EVEN WITHOUT THE ELEMENT OF SURPRISE THIS TIME, THE WAY SHE
SURPRISED US -- WHATEVER -- IN THE AUDITIONS, IT WAS AMAZING.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. Terry: SIMON?
Simon: HARPER, I LOVED THAT PERFORMANCE.
I TELL YOU WHY. I LOVE THINGS PEOPLE ARE GOING
TO TALK ABOUT. IT'S FRUSTRATING -- BY THE WAY,
YOUR FILM PACKAGE WAS BRILLIANT. YOUR PERSONALITY WAS GREAT.
IT WAS A GREAT SONG CHOICE. THIS IS SOMETHING WE DON'T
NORMALLY SEE OR HEAR. I WOULD RATHER HEAR AND SEE
SOMEBODY LIKE YOU THAN SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING REALLY BORING AND
OBVIOUS. PEOPLE ARE GOING TO TALK ABOUT
YOU. I LOVE YOU FOR THAT.
Terry: HARPER, IS THAT REALLY YOU IN THERE?
OF COURSE IT IS. Terry: I MEAN, WHAT IS IT
LIKE HAVING ALL THIS CROWD JUST LOVE WHAT YOU DO NOW?
IT'S ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. I DIDN'T THINK I WOULD BE HERE.
Terry: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT, HARPER.
TO VOTE FOR HARPER, HEAD OVER TO NBC.COM OR GET ON THE APP.
THAT'S THE ONLY WAY SHE'LL MAKE IT TO THE FINALS.
COMING UP, THIS COMEDIAN WILL BE TAKING THE STAGE TRYING TO MAKE
** [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: YOU KNOW THE SCORE, ONLY TWO OF THIS WEEK'S ACTS CAN
GO THROUGH TO THE FINALS. YES, THIS COMPETITION IS THAT
TOUGH. SO, WHO'S BLOWING YOU AWAY
TONIGHT? WE WILL FIND OUT TOMORROW.
WE'LL ALSO HAVE AMAZING PERFORMANCES FROM RIVERDANCE AND
A CERTAIN MAGIC DRAGON WILL BE DROPPING BY WITH HIS SPECIAL
DRAGON MAGIC. THAT'S PIFF THE MAGIC DRAGON,
RIVERDANCE AND THE CRUCIAL RESULTS TOMORROW AT 8:00/7:00
CENTRAL. NOW, HERE'S A COMEDIAN WHO'S
BEEN WAITING 15 YEARS FOR A SHOT AT HIS DREAM LIFE.
THE AUDIENCE AT THE AUDITIONS LOVED HIM.
WILL YOU AT HOME LOVE HIM TOO? FROM BALTIMORE, MARYLAND, HERE'S
MIKE E. WINFIELD. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
I GOT MARRIED TO AN OLDER WOMAN.
I GOT A STEPSON. IT'S COOL BEING A PARENT TO A
KID THAT'S CLOSE TO YOUR AGE. WHEN I WRITE MY JOKE, EVERYTHING
IS BASED ON TRUTH. I CALL HIM STEPMAN.
Simon: I'VE GOT A GOOD FEELING ABOUT YOU.
IF I WIN $1 MILLION, UNCLE JIMMIE IS GOING TO HIT ME UP FOR
A NEW HOUSE. AUNT RENEE NEEDS HOUSE CUSHIONS.
STEPMAN IS LAMBORGHINI SHOPPING. IT'S A LOT OF PRESSURE.
MY WHOLE FAMILY SPENT THE MONEY I DIDN'T GET YET.
GROWING UP IT WAS ME, MY MOM, LITTLE BROTHER ON THE EAST SIDE
OF BALTIMORE. MY MOM WORKED EVERY DAY TO
SUPPORT US. IT WAS MY LIFE'S GOAL TO BRING
LAUGHTER TO HER. TWO YEARS AGO I LOST MY MOM TO
CANCER, BUT WHEN I'M DOING MY COMEDY I FEEL LIKE MY MOM IS BY
MY SIDE PUSHING ME TO BE FUNNY AND TO DELIVER.
THAT'S WHAT I'M GOING TO DO. WATCHING THESE FINALS AND NOT
SEEING ANY COMEDIANS GET THROUGH, I REALIZED I HAD TO DO
SOMETHING DIFFERENT. I'M ONLY DROPPING PUNCH LINES.
I'M GOING TO GIVE THEM ENERGETICALLY HILARIOUS COMEDY.
* THIS IS HOW WE DO IT * * THIS IS HOW WE DO IT *
Terry: MIKE E. WINFIELD PRESENTS UNDERRATED AND
UNRECOGNIZABLE. I GET IT, IS IT STRANGE
SEEING A MICROPHONE HOLDING A MICROPHONE?
LET ME CATCH YOU UP. I'M MARRIED.
SHE'S OLDER. I GOT A STEPSON WHO'S LIKE THE
SAME AGE. I CALL HIM STEPMAN.
IT'S TOUGH LOOKING YOUNG. STEPMAN GOT IN TROUBLE IN
SCHOOL. I WENT TO GO PICK HIM UP AND
SOME LADY IS GIVING ME A HARD TIME LIKE YOU CAN'T BE IN
THE HALLWAY WITHOUT A PASS. I WAS LIKE, I DON'T GO TO THIS
SCHOOL YOU OLD LADY. THREE HOURS LATER, MY WIFE HAD
TO PICK US BOTH UP FROM DETENTION.
[ APPLAUSE ] LOOK AT THIS.
I DON'T MIND THE AGE DIFFERENCE WITH MY WIFE.
I JUST DON'T LIKE BEING TREATED LIKE A KID.
SHE'LL DO IT IN FRONT OF PEOPLE. WE'LL BE AT THE GROCERY STORE,
YOU BETTER NOT PUT ANYTHING EXTRA IN THE SHOPPING CART?
I'M LIKE, THAT'S HARD FOR ME TO DO WHILE I'M SITTING IN IT.
YOU KNOW WHAT, I DON'T HAVE TO TAKE THIS.
I THINK WE COULD COMMUNICATE BETTER.
I DON'T EXPRESS MY FEELINGS, SHE WON'T TELL ME WHY SHE'S MAD.
SHE JUST DOES ANGRY STUFF. LAST TIME I KNEW SHE WAS PISSED
OFF BECAUSE SHE MADE MY SANDWICH WITH THE TWO END PIECES OF
BREAD. IT'S WORSE THAN YOU THINK.
IT WASN'T EVEN THE LAST TWO PIECES.
YOU GET IT? THAT MEANS SHE HAD TO DIG INSIDE
THE LOAF, REACH TO THE BACK AND GRAB OUT THE OTHER END PIECE.
AND I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE BECAUSE SHE TRICKED ME AND MADE THE
SANDWICH INSIDE OUT. I WAS LIKE, MAYONNAISE ON THE
BROWN SIDE? I KNEW WHEN I WAS EATING IT, I
WAS LIKE THIS TASTES EXTRA CRUSTY OR SOMETHING.
SHE TRIED TO MURDER ME WITH A DOUBLE BUTT BREAD SANDWICH.
I LEFT HOME TO DO SOMETHING ROMANTIC.
I WENT TO VICTORIA'S SECRET. I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS THAT
EXPENSIVE. I GRABBED A BRA OFF THE RACK.
I LOOKED AT THE TAG. I'M LIKE THAT'S NOT REAL.
I LAID IT ON THE COUNTER. $65 FOR ONE BRA!
SO I WAS LIKE, WHAT DOES IT DO? IT BETTER LIGHT UP OR PLAY MUSIC
OR SOMETHING. DOES IT HAVE BLUETOOTH?
I LEFT. I WENT TO JCPENNEY.
$8 FOR THE BRA AND THE PANTIES. IT CAME ON THE SAME HANGER.
BUT IT WAS BEIGE. WHY DO THEY MAKE BEIGE DRAWERS?
THAT'S NOT ROMANTIC. IF YOU'RE ON A DATE AND SHE HAS
ON BEIGE DRAWERS, THIS IS THE END OF THE NIGHT.
SHE KNEW BEFORE SHE LEFT THE HOUSE.
I'M GOING TO PUT ON THE BEIGE ONES.
NOTHING IS HAPPENING TONIGHT. AND WHY DO THE BEIGE ONES GO SO
HIGH? SHE COULD ROB A BANK IN THOSE.
GIMME THE MONEY! I'M MIKE E. WINFIELD.
THANK YOU, AMERICA. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU.
Terry: MIKE E. WINFIELD, YOU GOT THE PLACE ROCKIN'.
HEIDI, EVERYONE IS ON THEIR FEET, MAN.
INCREDIBLE. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Heidi: YOU ARE FUNNY. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. Heidi: WELL, YOU KNOW, NO
COMEDIAN HAS MADE IT YET TO THE BIG FINALE.
MAYBE THIS ONE IS GOING TO BE YOU.
YOU'RE GOOD LOOKING. YOU HAVE THE SWAGGER GOING ON.
YOU'RE FUNNY. EVERYONE WAS LAUGHING.
I HOPE EVERYONE AT HOME IS LAUGHING AND VOTING.
ABSOLUTELY. THANK YOU, HEIDI.
Terry: SOFIA? Sofia: MIKE, I HOPE PEOPLE
VOTE FOR YOU TONIGHT. YOU WERE AMAZING.
YOU HAVE SO CHARISMA. YOUR JOKES ARE RELATABLE.
YOUR ENERGY ON THAT STAGE, YOU LOOK LIKE AN OLD TIMER.
THANK YOU, SOFIA. Terry: SIMON, DID YOU ENJOY
THAT? Simon: MIKE, GOD ONLY KNOWS
WHAT YOU MUST HAVE BEEN THINKING, WHEN YOU'RE THINKING
WHAT AM I ON BECAUSE THIS HAS BEEN ONE OF THE STRANGEST
EVENINGS. THEN YOU WALK ON AND YOU BROUGHT
IT. YOU HAVE A QUALITY.
EVERY PART OF IT WAS A STAR PERFORMANCE IN MY OPINION.
I THINK AMERICA IS GOING TO PUT YOU THROUGH TO THE FINALS AFTER
THAT. I REALLY DO.
YOU DESERVE IT. THAT WAS BRILLIANT.
FUNNY. Terry: HOWIE, YOU KNOW
COMEDY. Howie: I KNOW COMEDY.
I KNOW I SAW SOMETHING SPECTACULAR.
ONLY TWO ARE GOING THROUGH. AMERICA BETTER VOTE.
IF YOU DO NOT GET VOTED INTO THE FINALS, ON SEPTEMBER 9th I'M
PLAYING THE WESTBURY THEATER IN NEW YORK.
YOU COME OPEN UP FOR ME. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Howie: I GOT A FEELING YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE AVAILABLE.
I HOPE I'M NOT AVAILABLE BECAUSE I'M GONNA BE THERE.
THANK YOU. Terry: MIKE WINFIELD, IF YOU
GET THE CHANCE, WOULD YOU OPEN UP FOR HOWIE?
ABSOLUTELY I WOULD OPEN FOR HOWIE.
Terry: I GOT ANOTHER THING. HOW WOULD $1 MILLION CHANGE YOUR
LIFE, BROTHER? HEY, I NEED $1 MILLION.
I JUST HAD A BABY. I DIDN'T KNOW IF YOU DON'T HAVE
A CAR SEAT THEY DON'T LET YOU TAKE THE BABY HOME FROM THE
HOSPITAL SO THE BABY IS STILL THERE.
I'M GONNA PICK HIM UP. Terry: WE GOT TO GET HIS
BABY. GOOD LUCK TONIGHT.
ARE YOU GOING TO KEEP MIKE ON HIS JOURNEY AND PUT HIM INTO THE
FINALS? USE THE "AGT" APP OR GET ONLINE
AT NBC.COM. HE CAN'T DO IT WITHOUT YOU.
AFTER THE BREAK, IT'S OUR LAST ACT OF THE NIGHT AND SHE'S
HEIDI'S GOLDEN BUZZER. IT'S LILY MEOLA WHEN WE COME
BACK. **
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] Terry: HERE'S A QUESTION.
DO YOU WANT TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE BEYOND YOUR WILDEST DREAMS?
THAT'S A YES, RIGHT? WELL, IF YOU HAVE A TALENT, WE
ARE ALREADY LOOKING FOR ACTS TO COMPETE NEXT SEASON.
WE'LL BE STARTING VIRTUAL AUDITIONS IN NOVEMBER AND YOU
CAN ALSO SUBMIT AN AUDITION ON VIDEO.
GO TO AGTAUDITIONS.COM FOR EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW.
OK, HERE'S OUR LAST PERFORMANCE TONIGHT.
YOU KNOW, WE SEE SO MANY ACTS AT THE AUDITIONS, IT CAN BE HARD TO
CHOOSE JUST ONE AS YOUR GOLDEN BUZZER.
BUT HEIDI WAS IN NO DOUBT WITH THIS SINGER.
HEIDI, WHAT MADE HER STAND OUT FOR YOU?
Heidi: A LOT OF THINGS. I MEAN, I THINK SHE'S AMAZING.
WHAT STANDS OUT FOR ME IS A LOT OF SINGERS COME ON AND SINGS
OTHER PEOPLE'S HIT SONGS. SHE DOESN'T ONLY SING THEM, BUT
SHE WRITES HIT SONGS. I THINK SHE'S EXTRA SPECIAL.
Terry: WELL, THIS IS HER SHOT AT MAKING THE FINALS.
FROM MAUI, HAWAII, HERE IS LILY MEOLA.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] A FEW YEARS AGO I WAS LIVING
THIS FAIRYTALE. I WAS WRITING SONGS AND HAD A
MAJOR LABEL RECORD DEAL. THEN MY LIFE FLIPPED UPSIDE
DOWN. MY MOM GOT REALLY SICK.
I BROUGHT HOME A BOUQUET OF MILK WEED WHICH IS THIS PLANT THAT
HOSTS THE BUTTERFLY. WE WATCHED THE CATER PILLARS
GROW FROM EGGS TO COCOONS. IT WAS AN EXCELLENT DISTRACTION.
THIS ONE MORNING I LOOKED OVER AND THE FIRST BUTTERFLY HATCHED.
I BROUGHT IT TO HER AND THE BUTTERFLY FLEW OFF AND SHE TOOK
HER LAST BREATH. THIS BUTTERFLY STAYED.
I HAVE A VIDEO OF IT ON MY FACE WITH ME FOR HOURS.
I WAS KIND OF IN THIS PLACE WHERE I WAS REALLY LOST.
I HAD LOST MY MOM AND MY RECORD DEAL -- I WAS LIKE AM I SUPPOSED
TO BE DOING MUSIC STILL? I ENDED UP HERE IN SEARCH OF A
SIGN. GETTING THE GOLDEN BUZZER WAS
THAT SIGN I WAS LOOKING FOR. I NEED TO GO AFTER MY DREAMS
AGAIN. TONIGHT I'M SINGING A SONG I
WROTE A COUPLE WEEKS AGO CALLED "BUTTERFLY."
TO ME THEY'RE A REMINDER OF LIFE EVOLVING, GOING THROUGH LIGHT
TIMES AND DARK TIMES AND HOPEFULLY ONE DAY I'LL GET TO
FLY. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
* SUN ON YOUR FACE WITH THE WINDOWS OPEN *
* I NEVER GOT THE CHANCE SAY * * I KNOW YOUR WINGS ARE GETTING
HEAVY * * YOU CAN LET GO WHEN YOU'RE
READY * * FLY, FLY ON YOUR WINGS INTO
THE SKY * * I'LL TRY *
* I'M GOING TO TRY TO REMEMBER THE GOOD AFTER YOU FLY,
BUTTERFLY * * YOU COME TO YOUR FAVORITE
FLOWER * * SPREAD YOUR WINGS IN THE WIDE
OPEN SPACE * * IT'S A SWEET REMINDER HOW
YOU'RE NEVER REALLY FAR AWAY * * YOU KNOW I WILL ALWAYS NEED
YOU * * I FEEL BETTER WHEN I SEE YOU *
* FLY, FLY * * OH, I'LL TRY *
* I'LL TRY TO FIND THE HAPPINESS AFTER GOOD-BYE *
* BUTTERFLY * * BUTTERFLY *
* FLY SO HIGH * * BUTTERFLY *
* FLY HIGH *
* BUTTERFLY * [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]
Terry: LILY MEOLA. HEIDI?
Heidi: I'M SO, SO, SO, SO PROUD OF YOU.
YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL. YOU HAVE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL
VOICE. IT'S SOARING THROUGH THE ROOM.
I THINK YOU ARE INCREDIBLE. I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK.
I HOPE I SEE YOU AT THE FINALE. Terry: SIMON?
Simon: WELL, LILY, ALWAYS A RISK, ISN'T IT, WHEN YOU COME ON
TO A LIVE SHOW WHETHER YOU DO YOUR OWN SONG AND SOMEONE ELSE'S
SONG. 100% YOU MADE THE RIGHT DECISION
SINGING YOUR OWN SONG. I THINK THIS SONG WAS WAY BETTER
THAN THE SONG YOU SANG AT THE AUDITION.
PEOPLE ARE GOING TO REMEMBER IT. THE LYRIC WAS BEAUTIFUL.
YOU'VE DONE EVERYTHING YOU CAN POSSIBLY CAN, WHICH IS YOU SANG
A BEAUTIFUL SONG. YOU WROTE IT AND LET'S SEE WHAT
HAPPENS TOMORROW. Terry: SOFIA?
Sofia: IT'S VERY EMOTIONAL EVERY TIME YOU COME TO THAT
STAGE. HEIDI STARTS ALWAYS CRYING.
IT'S BEAUTIFUL. I CONGRATULATE YOU FOR WRITING
THAT SONG. AMAZING.
Terry: HOWIE, 45 SECONDS. Howie: OKAY.
WELL IT'S REALLY EMOTIONAL. WE FELT THE SENTIMENT.
YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL VOICE. IT DOESN'T BLOW THE ROOF OFF THE
PLACE. I THINK -- LET ME JUST SAY,
THAT'S NOT WHAT THAT SONG DOES. YOU NEED TO BLOW THE ROOF OFF
THE PLACE. ONLY TWO ARE GOING THROUGH.
AMERICA HAS TO CHOOSE TWO. I'M SURE A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL
LOVE YOU. GOOD LUCK.
Terry: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT, LILY.
NOW THE FOCUS MOVES TO YOU AT HOME.
IF YOU HAVEN'T VOTED YET, GET ONLINE OR USE THE APP.
VOTING WILL STAY OPEN UNTIL 7:00 A.M. EASTERN TOMORROW.
TOMORROW NIGHT, IT'S A TENSE AND TOUGH NIGHT FOR THE ACTS.
TWO WILL GO INTO THE FINALS, BUT NINE WON'T.
ALSO TOMORROW, WE'LL HAVE RIVERDANCE AND PIFF THE MAGIC
DRAGON. THAT'S ALL AT 8:00/7:00 CENTRAL.
I AM TERRY CREWS.
