- This is an international competition.
It's the best of the best
competing to be the best of the best.
[Survivor's "Eye of the Tiger"]
* *
- * It's the eye of the tiger *
* It's the thrill of the fight *
* Rising up to the challenge of our rival *
* *
* And he's watching us all *
* With the eye *
* Of the tiger *
* *
[cheers and applause]
* *
- Give it up for the host of "America's Got Talent,"
Terry Crews!
- * It's the eye of the tiger *
* It's the thrill of the fight *
* Rising up to the challenge of our rival *
* And he's watching us all... *
- Yo, yo, yo!
- * Of the tiger *
- Yes, it all comes down to this--
the greatest gathering of talent on the planet
in one epic battle.
- * Hanging tough, staying hungry *
- Now, the 11 finalists are 5 Golden Buzzers
and 6 acts from the superfan vote.
They will each have one more performance to win the title
of "AGT All-Stars" Champion.
- * Rising up to the challenge... *
- And to decide who is the best of the best,
we've got our panel of superfans.
Check it out. They are here to represent you.
There's no judges' choice, no Golden Buzzers tonight.
The superfans alone will pick our winner.
Yes.
- Then why are we here?
- The dream is to be the All-Stars Champion.
In next week's finale, that dream could come true.
Now, Simon, talk to us
about what it means to win "All-Stars."
- Everything.
There is no prize
other than the biggest prize,
which is you will be crowned the best of the best.
- * Of the tiger *
- That's huge. Huge. [cheers and applause]
So it is on.
Eleven acts, one winner to rule them all.
Are you ready?
all: Yes!
- Howie. - What?
[laughter]
- Howie. - Is that a filter?
- Hi, Simon. - You know what's weird?
You spent 12 hours getting into this costume.
On TikTok, I can do this in 3 seconds with a filter.
- I know. I wish I would have known.
- Here we go, folks.
[upbeat music]
- I gave this act my Golden Buzzer
on "AGT" in 2019.
And when they came on "All-Stars,"
I gave them the Golden Buzzer again,
I loved them so much.
It's a choir of kids aged 10 to 18,
and the sound they make-- it's off the charts.
From Detroit, Michigan, here's the Detroit Youth Choir.
[cheers and applause]
- When we first went to "AGT" in season 14,
we were just a group of kids from Detroit.
- I was shy. I had a lot of stage fright.
- I think we were all quite nervous.
- Mr. White pushes us to be greater,
even when we don't think we can be.
- All it takes is one person to believe
in a young man or woman for them to reach their dream.
- Mr. White believed in all of us,
and it's really helped us to grow
as performers and as people.
Now, being on "AGT All-Stars"
three years from the first Golden Buzzer,
we believe in ourselves.
We have what it takes to do anything.
- Mr. White, for what you have done in this world,
one Golden Buzzer is not enough!
- When Terry hit that Golden Buzzer
for the second time, it was just tears.
It was joy.
I was like, "Oh, my God, we did it."
- All right, DYC, come on, let's go.
Time to rehearse.
You know we're not here just for the Golden Buzzer.
We're here to win.
Five, six, seven, eight.
[rhythmic clapping, stomping]
Remember to focus, do your best.
- * Thunder, feel the thunder *
- And let's compete, all right?
- * Thunder... *
- Season 14, we were so close to winning.
- * The thunder *
- Kodi Lee!
- Being up against Kodi Lee again is scary.
But if we make second place again on "AGT All-Stars,"
I will be mad. [laughter]
- * Never give up *
- DYC.
all: You know!
[wild cheering]
["Hey, Look, Ma, I Made It" playing]
all: * Are you ready for the sequel? *
* Ain't you ready for the latest? *
* DYC can't be equaled *
* Hey, look, Ma, we made it *
* All my life been working, and tonight is my appraisal *
* I'm singing, selling songs, and I'm on a record label *
* This world is full of demons *
* Stocks and bonds and Bible traders *
* So I sing my song, get up and leave *
* A climber and the greatest, yeah *
* Are you ready for the sequel, sequel? *
* Ain't you ready for the latest? *
* In the garden of evil *
* I'm gonna be the greatest *
* In the golden cathedral *
* I'll be praying for the faithless *
* If you lose, boo-hoo *
* Hey, look, Ma, I made it *
* Oh, yeah, hey, look, Ma, I made it *
* Oh, yeah *
* Everything's coming up aces, aces *
* If it's a dream, don't wake me *
* Don't wake me *
* I said, hey, look, Ma, I made it *
[cheers and applause]
* Friends are happy for me *
* Or they're nothing but these phonies *
* They'll celebrate my medals *
* Or they want to take my trophies *
* Some are loyal soldiers *
* While these other thorns are rosy *
* And if you never know who you can trust *
* Then trust me, you'll be lonely, oh *
* Are you ready for the sequel, sequel? *
* Ain't you ready for the latest? *
* In the garden of evil, I'm gonna be the greatest *
* In the golden cathedral *
* I'll praying for the faithless *
* If you lose, boo-hoo *
* Hey, look, Ma, I made it *
* Oh, yeah *
* Hey, look, Ma, I made it *
* Oh, yeah *
* Everything's coming up aces, aces *
* If it's a dream, don't wake me *
* Don't wake me *
- * Came up from the bottom, but we still got a ways to go *
* You gonna see, we gonna step *
* Had to let them know *
* Everything that happen about to happen *
* Is because of you shout-out, Mr. White *
* Coming through *
all: * Hey, we're the greatest *
* Hey, look how we made it *
- * Looking at the TV, DYC, we're the latest news *
* DYC back on "AGT," huh? *
all: * Hey, look, Ma, hey, look, Ma, hey, look, Ma *
- Aah!
all: * Hey, look, Ma, I made it *
* We made it *
* Everything's coming up aces, aces *
* If it's a dream, don't wake me *
* Don't wake me *
* Hey, look, Ma, I made it *
[wild cheering]
[rousing music]
- Yeah!
- My Golden Buzzer, the Detroit Youth Choir!
[cheers and applause]
Heidi?
- This is by far the best choir I have ever seen.
All of you put so much energy out.
I have the biggest smile on my face.
The biggest party was in here.
I love also how you snuck your name in there, Mr. White.
I heard that. [laughter]
But it's not just your singing.
Your dance routine is, like, top-notch.
- Absolutely, absolutely. - Well done!
- Howie?
- First of all, you deliver.
It's great music that makes you smile, that makes you clap.
And just when you think you've seen everything,
your solos are always great--
those two young ladies that came out.
- I want to thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you so much.
- One act is gonna win,
and it's gonna be up to the superfans,
but you're all stars.
Hey, that's the name of the show.
[laughter] See what I did there?
- Simon?
I totally agree with Heidi.
This is by far my favorite choir...
[cheers and applause]
By a clear mile.
You know what I was thinking when I was watching you?
You know, where is the pinnacle
of, like, entertainment in the world?
It's the Super Bowl.
They should be booked to be on the Super Bowl.
- Yes.
- They should.
- Let's make it happen. - Think about it.
- I mean, do it. - Do it, do it!
- I mean, come on.
- Well, good luck tonight, Detroit Youth Choir!
* *
- That was the first act tonight,
and this is a hard act to follow, right?
- I could make the case for them winning, genuinely.
- Coming up, we've got viral sensations,
fan favorites,
and winners from across the globe,
all battling it out to be crowned the ultimate All-Star.
Buckle up. It's going to be intense.
[cheers and applause]
[rousing music]
* *
- Here's a "Got Talent" winner
who was inspired to start performing
by another champion.
It was watching videos of "AGT" superstar Terry Fator
that made her want to be a ventriloquist.
She went on to win "Romania's Got Talent,"
and that has brought her here to the ultimate challenge,
the "All-Stars" finals.
Here's Ana-Maria Margean.
[cheers and applause]
- My first "All-Star" audition,
I was really nervous,
because it was my first time performing
in front of an American audience.
But the judges said some kind words.
And I just couldn't believe it.
- * And don't tell me what to do *
- You are incredible. I mean, you're gorgeous.
You can sing so beautifully.
- * Just let me be myself *
- You are an "AGT All-Star."
The superfans are gonna love you.
- It's just really, really exciting
when you see the best of the best compete with each other.
And you are really funny.
And I really like your doll.
- Thank you.
- Finding out that I would actually go on to the finals,
it made me burst into tears.
- Ana-Maria Margean!
[cheers and applause]
- The fact that I was going on to the finals
and Terry Fator wasn't,
it was like, what is happening?
I'm not gonna lie.
That made me feel really good and proud about myself.
Oh, really?
I did not know he said that.
Oh, my goodness.
I don't know what to say.
- I can't wait to see what we are going to do
in the next round.
- For my next performance,
I have something different planned.
Sorry, buddy.
I worked really hard for this.
And I hope the judges and the superfans
will see that change is a great thing.
So I want to show everyone that I can do this,
especially Terry Fator.
[cheers and applause]
[string music]
- Good evening, everybody. - Hello.
Here with me tonight is someone really special in my life,
my mentor and vocal coach, Mrs. Know-It-All.
She's always here to give me advice and encouragement.
- Enunciate, please.
Now focus. Take a deep breath.
[inhales deeply]
- * I put a spell on you *
* Because you're mine *
* *
* You'd better stop the things you do *
* I tell ya, I ain't lying *
* I ain't lying *
* No *
- No, no, no, no, no.
- What's wrong?
- You should sing it from your heart?
- Oh, okay, then you show me.
* *
- * You know I can't stand it *
* Your running around *
* You know better, Ana *
* I can't stand it, how you put me down *
* Oh, oh, oh, oh *
* I put a spell on you *
* Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh *
* Because you're mine *
* Oh, no, no, no *
* *
* Oh, oh, oh *
Did you hear that? - I did.
- Did you like it? - I loved it.
[cheers and applause]
* You know I love you *
- * I love you * - * I love you anyhow *
- * And I don't care if you don't want me *
* 'Cause I'm yours right now *
- * I put a spell on you *
* Because you're mine *
* *
- * Because you're mine *
* Oh, oh, oh *
[vocalizing]
* *
* Oh *
- * Ooh, ooh, yeah *
- She sounds great.
* *
[cheers and applause] Wow.
[rousing music]
- Ana-Maria Margean!
Heidi?
- It was flawless. It was absolutely flawless.
And you did it even without moving your lips.
[laughter] - Thank you.
- I think you're absolutely incredible.
And, I mean, has this sunken in already,
that you went even further than Terry Fator?
- I still can't believe it. It's just unbelievable.
I got to compete with the person I admire most.
- Yes.
- And I just want to make him proud.
- You did. Good for you.
- Howie?
Wow, if Ariana Grande was Romanian
and 14 years old with a puppet,
I think that's what we're watching.
You know, being on the other side of the globe,
in a country where this is not even your first language,
and being able to entertain an American audience,
an English-speaking audience is amazing.
So you are exactly what an All-Star is.
- Thank you so much. - You're welcome.
- Simon?
- Ana...
What I thought was quite remarkable
is that Ana-Maria kind of walked out
like this is just a normal day.
And I'm here, and I've got my puppet,
so I'll just sing.
And it just got better and better and better.
There's a massive, massive market
for someone with your talent.
And you really deserve to be here.
- Thank you. - Well done.
- Make some noise one more time for Ana-Maria Margean!
[cheers and applause]
* *
- Do you think that she can win it?
- With that kind of act, anything could happen.
- People love ventriloquists. They're obsessed with them.
People love this artistry.
I hope the superfans vote for her.
* *
- "All-Stars" is a truly global competition,
and this act comes from Rizal in the Philippines.
When these two dancers started performing together,
they didn't like each other.
Then they softened.
Then they melted.
And then they fell in love.
Together, they went on to win "Philippines Got Talent."
Here's Power Duo.
[cheers and applause]
- We cannot believe that we are here in the finals,
because during our audition, we have a mistake.
- Did you toss her a rope and she missed the rope?
- Yes, there is a mistake, but the show must go on.
- Yeah.
I didn't expect that we can go through
because of that mistake.
- The act going into the finals is...
Power Duo!
- When Terry announced our name, I almost cried.
We're so lucky and happy... - And happy.
- To be here.
- We want to make our country proud,
our family proud, and our son proud.
[dramatic music]
For this performance,
we have been working day and night.
But everyone in the finals is so good.
It puts a lot of pressure on us.
- So tonight we are doing something
we have never done before.
- It's more dangerous and risky.
* *
We are both nervous,
but we trust each other with our lives.
* *
We want to show our son that dreams do come true.
[cheers and applause]
- Here we go. Heads up.
- Someone was bedazzling again. - [laughs]
- * Sunday mornings were your favorite *
* I used to meet you down on Woods Creek Road *
* I'm screaming at a God *
* I don't know if I believe in *
* 'Cause I don't know what else I can do *
* I'm still holding on to everything *
* That's dead and gone *
* I don't want to say goodbye *
* 'Cause this one means forever *
* Now you're in the stars *
* And six feet's never felt so far *
* Here I am alone between the heavens and the embers *
* Oh, it hurts so hard *
* For a million different reasons *
* You took the best of my heart *
* And left the rest in pieces *
* I'm still holding on to everything *
* That's dead and gone *
* I don't want to say goodbye *
* 'Cause this one means forever *
* Now you're in the stars *
* And six feet's never felt so far *
* Here I am alone between the heavens and the embers *
* Oh, it hurts so hard *
* For a million different reasons *
* You took the best of my heart *
* And left the rest in pieces *
* I'm still holding, holding, holding on *
* I'm still holding, holding on, holding on *
[music crescendos]
[wild cheering]
* I'm still holding, still holding on *
* I'm still holding on to everything *
* That's dead and gone *
* I don't want to say goodbye *
* 'Cause this one means forever *
* Now you're in the stars *
* And six feet's never felt so far *
* Here I am alone between the heavens and the embers *
* Oh, it hurts so hard *
* For a million different reasons *
* You took the best of my heart *
* And left the rest in pieces *
[wild cheering]
[rousing music]
* *
- Wow.
- Power Duo!
Heidi?
- I mean, you two were born to do this together.
It is so beautiful to watch you two dance.
I thought it was fantastic.
I wasn't sure if you were crying in the middle of it.
Were you cryingcrying?
I wasn't sure if it was, like, part of the dance.
- Yes.
We are grateful to be here in the finals, yes.
[cheers and applause]
- Howie?
- Well, I've been married for 42 years.
And my wife won't let me do a lot of that stuff with her.
[laughter]
Plus, if we tried it, we would rip the shower curtains off.
It's beautiful to watch.
And you make it seem effortless.
So best of luck to you. - Thank you.
- Simon?
- I think on a show like this, you've got to be good.
You've got to be better than you were
when we first saw you.
And you've got to be likeable.
And you achieved all three.
- Thank you so much. Thank you.
- I'm really happy for you,
because the pressure's really on tonight.
And I think you did really, really brilliantly.
Brilliant.
- Thank you. Thank you so much.
- Good luck tonight.
Did Power Duo perform their way into the hearts
of the superfans?
We will find out in next week's finale.
Right now make some noise for Power Duo!
[cheers and applause]
- Mwah, mwah, mwah!
- Coming up...
Tom Ball impressed the judges in the last round,
but will he have the same impact
on the superfans tonight?
And Aidan McCann hopes being the last magician left
will give him an edge in the competition.
Don't go anywhere.
[cheers and applause]
- This schoolteacher from the UK
has made some big sacrifices to follow his dream.
He postponed his wedding to audition for "All-Stars."
And now he's postponing his honeymoon
because he got the group Golden Buzzer
from the judges and myself and made these finals.
From Brighton, England, here's Tom Ball.
- Ow! [cheers and applause]
[inspirational music]
- A part of me believes
that I was always going end up onstage.
* *
You know, after "Britain's Got Talent,"
coming third, this was my second chance.
And then you have to take that moment.
I've learned to take that moment
after the song is finished and go, how did it go?
How is everyone reacting?
I just see Simon just put the thumbs-up to Terry.
[rhythmic clapping, chanting]
It didn't hit me until I got offstage.
I got the Golden Buzzer.
- [screams]
- Flew home, had a couple of days at home,
and then I got married.
[applause]
It is mad.
I've managed to bring Hannah, with me as a mini honeymoon.
- It's mad, isn't it? - It is.
- It's been such an amazing experience for him.
And he's up there doing what he loves to do.
It would just be the cherry on the top if he won.
I mean, I believe he can.
- I'm just so grateful to Hannah
for supporting me through this.
* *
I'm really determined.
- Audience, are we ready for our next act?
- Here we go.
- I try teach my students
that they should follow their dreams.
Before I walked out on that stage,
I was a teacher
and a lover of music.
And now I'm here at the final
of "America's Got Talent All-Stars,"
still teaching...
but being a singer.
* *
[cheers and applause]
- He is the cutest.
- * When you were here before *
* I couldn't look you in the eye *
[cheering]
* I wish I was special *
* You're so very special *
* But I'm a creep *
* I'm a weirdo *
* What the hell am I doing here? *
* I don't belong here *
* She's *
* Running out the door *
- Wow.
* She's running *
* She runs, runs, runs *
* Runs *
* *
* She runs *
* *
* 'Cause I'm a creep *
* *
* I'm a weirdo *
* What the hell am I doing here? *
* *
* I don't belong here *
* 'Cause I'm a creep *
* I'm a weirdo *
* What the hell am I doing here? *
* I don't belong here *
[cheers and applause]
- Whoa. - Wow, that's surprising.
[laughs]
- [chanting] Tom Ball. Tom Ball.
both: [chanting] Tom Ball. Tom Ball. Tom Ball.
- Tom Ball!
[cheers and applause]
Simon?
- Oh, Tom, you know, everything about this
has just been amazing,
because it was one of those performances
which shouldn't work but did work.
And it was really powerful and moving.
- Yes.
- I have to tell you.
And, boy, oh, boy, did you deserve to be here.
I mean, seriously, you just turned it up, didn't you?
- Yes!
- Thank you.
- Howie?
- Oh, everything he said, and you surprised.
You know, we gave you a Golden Buzzer.
As a group, we said, "Oh, this guy is worthy of the finals."
I think you rose up nine levels.
You brought the audience to their feet twice.
You're really amazing.
- Heidi?
- I mean your ability to express your emotions
and what you're feeling... - Yeah.
- While you're singing is so powerful and so incredible.
And it must be because I see that ring on your finger.
I mean, wow, what a performance.
You couldn't have done it better.
- Thank you so much.
- Well, good luck tonight, Tom.
So will all of Tom's matrimonial sacrifices
lead to him winning "All-Stars"?
- He could, you know. - It could be, yes.
- Wouldn't surprise me. - That's up to the superfans.
Right now one more time for Tom Ball.
[cheers and applause]
[rousing music]
- Wow.
- See, if you're gonna be a singer on "All-Stars,"
that's the only way to do it.
He just set a bar far and above.
- I wouldn't want to be a superfan tonight.
* *
[cheers and applause]
- In the first round, this magician
got Heidi reaching for the All-Stars Golden Buzzer.
He's only 13 years old.
And back in 2020, he made the finals
of "Britain's Got Talent."
He's got a great career ahead of him
and winning "All-Stars" would supercharge his future.
From Ireland, here's Aidan McCann.
[cheers and applause]
- I really love magic.
I think about it every day and night.
It makes me feel like a superhero
with superhero abilities.
My dream is to be one of the biggest magicians in the world,
like Shin Lim or Piff the Magic Dragon.
With magic, anything is possible.
And to compete on the "All-Stars" stage
against the best in the world,
I was nervous... [chuckles]
And excited.
- It is you who is the magic.
- In that moment, I didn't know what was happening.
I was kind of just like...
Hands down, that is the best moment of my life so far.
Heidi is incredible.
She swung me around a few times.
[chuckles]
But my mind is already zooming
about all the different magic I could bring to the finals.
So, in order to top my first performance,
I'm creating something never done before,
making it funnier...
bigger, involving more people,
everything I can think of.
I'm the only magician that's made it to the finals,
so there's a lot of pressure on me now.
If anything goes wrong, it can ruin everything,
which is very nerve-racking.
But a superhero also needs to be fearless.
If I win "America's Got Talent All-Stars,"
I would be the youngest magician ever
to win "America's Got Talent."
That would be incredible. Could you imagine that?
Hopefully the superfans vote for me to win it.
Fingers crossed. We'll have to wait and see.
[soaring music]
[cheers and applause]
Hey, everyone. It's great to be here.
- Whoo-hoo-hoo!
- Simon. - Yes.
- When you were a kid in the 1870s,
did you have flash cards? - Aidan.
[Heidi laughs]
- They used to help me read,
and now they even help me read minds.
I know, spooky.
So here they are, the 26 letters of the alphabet.
- Yep.
- All with their own individual image.
So can you tell me when to stop, please,
whenever you want.
- Okay, stop.
- Oh, are you sure? - Yep.
- All right, great. So take this card.
Don't look at it.
And we'll get back to it in a second.
- Thank you, Aidan. - Thank you.
Heidi. - Yes.
- I want you to look into my eyes.
Now, I do this to create a strong connection
with the person.
But in your case, I just wanted to look into your eyes.
- Whoo!
- Heidi, you gave me the gift of the Golden Buzzer.
- Yes. - So I brought you a gift.
But you can't open it yet. - Okay.
- We'll leave it right there. - Thank you.
- Because in only one of those balloons,
I have a prediction,
a card that hopefully matches your card.
And if you get it right, you can open your gift.
And I'll need someone to help me on stage,
someone charming, charismatic, handsome,
funny, known all around the world!
So where are you, Terry? Come on out.
[laughter]
[magical music]
Terry, as always, you're looking nearly as buff as me.
Keep going to the gym. Hang in there.
You'll get these bad boys soon enough.
- [laughs]
- He's so funny.
- Terry, I want you to hold on to these darts for me.
So, Simon, you'll go first.
Pick a balloon you don't think that my prediction's in.
- Pink. - Pink.
All right, Terry, throw the dart at the pink balloon.
- All right.
- Let's see.
And you were right.
Terry, no card. - That's it?
- Howie, it's your turn now.
I know, tough choice-- they all look a lot like you.
But try and pick a balloon.
- [laughs] Oh.
- Pick a balloon you don't think my prediction is in.
- Yellow.
- Terry, pop the yellow balloon.
- You were right. No cards.
Heidi, no pressure.
If you do this wrong, my trick is ruined,
and it will be a long flight back to Ireland.
So green or blue balloon--
which one do you want Terry to pop?
- Blue. - Terry, pop the blue balloon.
Let's see.
And you were all right.
No cards, which must mean my prediction's in this balloon.
All right, here we go.
Terry, can you hear this?
[light thumping] - I can hear it.
- That's my prediction. Pop the balloon.
Look-it, a card came out.
Terry, show everyone what that card is.
- This is...
- An octopus.
Simon, for the first time,
show everyone what card you chose?
- Yeah. [wild cheering]
Yes. - It's an octopus.
Thank you so much, Terry. You've been great.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Now, Heidi. - I can open it?
- Well, since you got it right, you can open it.
What's in there?
A purple octopus. - Aw.
[cheers and applause]
Now, to prove that I knew it was octopus
from the very beginning, everybody look up.
* *
[cheering]
Everyone get a balloon.
Judges, get a balloon.
* *
Everyone, hold up what's inside!
[all gasp]
Everyone, hold up what's inside!
- Oh, my gosh.
I've been Aidan McCann!
Who can? McCann can!
Thank you and good night!
[wild cheering]
[rousing music]
* *
- Aidan McCann!
Heidi, your Golden Buzzer.
- I mean, you are as confident and as skilled
as a grown magician.
You really are, but it's just much cuter when you do it.
- [laughs] - It really is.
We're gonna get this all the way.
Why not? Let's win this thing!
That was so good!
- Simon?
- Yeah, I just think you need a bit more confidence.
[laughter] No.
That was actually quite amazing.
[cheers and applause]
You've got an amazing personality.
I mean, honestly, incredible.
Everyone tonight has been fantastic.
- I agree. [cheers and applause]
- Thank you. - Howie?
Yeah, I agree with what my fellow judges said.
The magic was impeccable.
And you have such a stage presence.
You're a great comedian. You're a great performer.
And you're a great magician.
And most of all, you're an All-Star.
- Thank you. [cheers and applause]
- Well, thank you, Aidan.
Aidan has done all he can.
It's now up to the superfans
to decide if he should be our "All-Stars" Champion.
We'll get the result in next week's finale.
For now, make some noise for Aidan McCann.
- And thanks for my present!
- Bye, guys. Thank you. - Bye!
He's just adorable.
- It's one thing to remember the magic.
But how does he remember all those jokes?
And when things happen, he thinks on his feet.
He's a good improviser. - Yeah.
- Coming up...
we've got the Bello Sisters,
who pulled off an incredible upset
to make it to the finals.
Can they do the same tonight?
Plus, Howie's Golden Buzzer, Light Balance Kids,
aims to light up the stage for the superfans.
And "AGT" royalty takes the stage.
It's Kodi Lee.
[cheers and applause]
- Sometimes talent and a love of performing
runs in the blood.
These three sisters from Verona, Italy,
are the eighth generation of performers in their family.
They totally grabbed America's attention on "AGT" 2020.
But back then, they had to perform remotely from home.
Tonight they're here to try and beat
the very best in the world.
They are the Bello Sisters.
[cheers and applause]
- Our "All-Stars" audition--
we really pushed ourselves to the limit.
[cheers and applause] - Whoa.
- That was about as close to perfection I've ever seen.
[wild cheering]
- The act going into the final is...
Bello Sisters!
- We were speechless that we made it.
[chuckles] - We called my mom.
And it took her about 30 minutes for us
to convince her that we actually made it.
- [laughs] - She was over the moon.
She was so happy.
We're the eighth generation of performers on my mom's side.
And she was the first woman on Earth
to perform the stilts on a high wire.
She gave up her career to support us.
So I hope that she's proud of us.
- So this is actually a letter from your mom.
- Oh, my God.
- Since she can't be here until the show tonight,
she wanted you to read this before you perform.
- I'm gonna cry.
[emotional music]
- "To my dear daughters"...
all: "There are so many things I would like to say to you."
- But let me start by saying
how proud I am to be your mother.
Things have not been easy for you girls,
especially when you first started.
But your determination, passion,
and love for each other...
- "Helped defeat all odds.
- I remember seeing you three sitting backstage,
imitating the other performance,
dreaming of becoming the artists you are today.
all: "The long hours of training,
blood, sweat, and tears have brought you so far."
- "You are living proof that if you dream hard enough
and put in the work, anything is possible."
- You girls know you can do anything
you put your heart and soul into.
Keep inspiring other young women to follow their dreams.
- "And remember, you are winners to me.
Love, Mom."
* *
- This time we have to outdo everything we've done before.
We're ready to prove that we deserve to win this.
[cheers and applause]
- Hi.
- I'm so excited that you guys are doing this right here.
[cheering]
[suspenseful music]
* *
[crowd gasps]
- * I *
* I just died in your arms tonight *
* *
* It must've been something you said *
* *
- Where are they going?
- I don't know, but it looks amazing.
[cheering]
Like on another planet.
* *
- * I keep looking for something I can't get *
- Look at that.
* Hearts lie all around me *
* And I don't see *
* An easy way *
* To get out of this *
* *
* I've lost and found *
* It's my final mistake *
* Loving by proxy *
* No give and all take *
* 'Cause I've been thrilled *
* To fantasy *
* One too many times *
* *
* I should've walked away *
- Blindfolds.
* *
- * I should've walked away *
* *
* I should've walked away *
* *
* I *
* I just died in your arms tonight *
* It must have been something you said *
* I just died in your arms tonight *
* Tonight *
[wild cheering]
[rousing music]
- The Bello Sisters!
Wow.
Heidi?
- I didn't want it to be over. It was over too soon.
I mean, you transfix us with your energy and what you do.
It's like glitz, glamour, glutes.
It's, like, wow. And you're so gorgeous.
[cheers and applause]
- Simon?
- I've got to tell you-- in terms of just the way
everything looked, every part of it, the staging,
and it was dangerous, and it was brilliant,
and it was beautiful. - Thank you.
Thank you so much.
- It was everything this final should have.
I believe it's given you a shot at winning after this.
- Thank you so much. - I do.
- Howie?
- Again, we keep talking about raising the bar.
And here we are at the final,
and to do something so dangerous,
we could feel the tension in the room.
And then at the end, you looked so happy and relieved.
And I thought you were just happy and relieved
that there's not a fourth sister,
'cause that would be so much more to lift.
- There is a fourth sister.
- Did you drop her? - No.
[laughter]
She's in the making. She's practicing still.
- She's practicing. - Okay.
And that'll make perfect. But you were perfect tonight.
Thank you so much.
[cheers and applause]
- Well, good luck tonight, ladies.
Their future is now in the hands of the superfans.
And we'll get the result in the finale next week.
Right now give it up for the Bello Sisters!
[cheers and applause]
We'll be right back.
[cheers and applause]
- This comedian is Simon's Golden Buzzer.
He was a big hit on "AGT" last summer.
He made the finals.
And he just missed out on his dream of winning.
But that only made him more determined
to prove he can beat the best in the world.
From Baltimore, Maryland, here's Mike E. Winfield.
[cheers and applause]
- Hey, you're the guy from "AGT All-Stars."
- My All-Stars audition could not have went better.
[horn honks] - Mike E., stay golden.
- I mean, I got the Golden Buzzer
from Simon Cowell.
- * Well, you can tell everybody *
* You can tell everybody *
- From Simon Cowell!
- You want it from anyone.
But the one from Simon, come on.
- * Yes, I am, yes, I am, yes, I am *
- It's the one that has the power to get in the minds
of America when they see it.
And they're like, oh, that is a seal of approval.
It's coveted. [bell rings]
And that confetti-- oh, that's just gold.
I take it with me everywhere.
- That'll be $3.50.
What is this?
- That's Simon's golden confetti.
And I got your back, too.
Enjoy.
I sleep with it. [elevator bell dings]
Sometimes I sprinkle other people with it.
[laughs]
- * Well, you can tell everybody *
- When I first walked on Season 17,
I was just a struggling comic
trying to get my name out there.
And now...
[sighs]
I feel like the world is mine to take over.
I have another shot to be the first comedian
to ever win "AGT."
I would be talked about.
I would have the prize that no one else can take away.
I want it all. I want my own sitcom.
I want my name in lights. I want films.
I want this more than anything.
And I'm ready.
- * I'm the man, I'm the man, I'm the man *
[cheers and applause]
- * Hit it *
* It takes two to make a thing go right *
* It takes two to make it out of sight *
- Whoa, all right!
Thank you.
Thank you very much. Wow. Yeah.
All right, let me start by saying this--
I love my wife. I love my family.
I got a super-old stepson.
You know...
it's weird, because my buddies, close friends,
they won't date women with kids, which is strange to me,
because it changed my life.
I never thought I could have such a deep love
for this child-support check.
Every other Thursday, me and Step-man
wait outside by the mailbox.
I got this new move I do for the mail lady
when she shows up.
I'm like, "Thank you."
'Cause that's how Step-man and I bond.
We buy stuff with the child-support check.
It's not a lot of money, but we get to hang out, you know?
My close friends, they don't even know.
They just notice stuff.
They're like, "Dude, where did you get that jacket?"
I'm like, "My baby daddy."
"You need to get you one, playboy."
I'm just trying to find my parenting flow, you know?
'Cause my parents, they had unique approaches.
I remember when I started stand-up, my mom--
she just quit her job, zero savings.
She said Jesus is gonna pay her bills.
And several years later, she had zero debt.
She made me a believer,
because that's when I found out that I was Jesus.
[cheers and applause]
I'm trying to find my parenting flow.
So me and Step-man, we hang out.
We went to an appliance store.
We're leaving. We're in the parking lot.
Some lady--she runs out to me.
She's like, "Sir, you forgot this."
I'm like, "Thank you, ma'am."
It wasn't mine.
I just got nervous.
I thought she was coming to tell me my transaction
didn't go through.
But instead, I got hooked up
with some Hoover vacuum cleaner bags.
Right.
But then I'm like, "What am I doing?
I don't steal."
I'm supposed to be a role model for Step-man here.
Let me handle this. I'ma handle this.
Step-man's like... [deep voice] "I'll handle it."
I'm like, "Okay."
And he handled it.
Step-man handled it.
He went back inside of the store
and stole a vacuum cleaner.
And there's my parenting flow.
I'm Mike E. Winfield. Good night.
Thank you very much.
I appreciate it.
Thank you very much, America!
[cheers and applause]
- Mike E. Winfield!
- Thank you, thank you. Thank you.
- Looking so good.
Simon, your Golden Buzzer.
- Mike, you were so funny when we saw you earlier on.
And there was only one thing you had to do tonight--
be funnier.
And you were.
I mean, brilliant. - Yes, yes.
- Thank you. Thank you.
- I think you've given yourself a shot after that.
And I know we say this a lot and all these shows say this--
"Oh, yeah, you're a star."
You are a star. - Thank you, Simon.
[cheers and applause]
- Howie?
- Oh, I agree with everything you're saying.
And wouldn't that be great?
We've never had a comedian win even "AGT,"
let alone "AGT All-Stars."
I hope it. I wish it.
We now know him, and we love him.
And we're waiting for the next story about Step-man,
which should end up being a show with Terry Crews.
- I'm Step-man. I'll be Step-man.
- He can play Step-man. - I'll be Step-man.
- That's a great series right there.
It's amazing. - Heidi?
- Yeah, I mean you are just a true entertainer
in the best possible way.
I mean, you just have it all. You have the full package.
And that smile does win me over every time,
and so do your jokes, by the way.
- Thank you, Heidi. Thank you.
I appreciate it.
- Now, Mike, you always said you wanted to be
the first comedian to win "AGT."
How's that working for you right now?
- You know what? Here's the thing--
I was devastated when I left and I lost, you know?
And then when I got the call,
I felt like I had a second chance.
And I feel like now is that second chance.
And I'm riding the wave of Simon's Golden Buzzer.
And I just feel like I have a shot.
Right now I have a chance.
- You have a shot, yeah. - Thank you.
- Good luck tonight, Mike.
So will Mike be the first comedian
to win an "AGT" competition?
We will find out what the superfans decide in the finale.
- Come on.
- Give it up for Mike E. Winfield!
- Thank you very much.
Wow. Thank you.
[cheers and applause]
- That is a good show with him and Terry
and Terry playing Step-man.
- I want to be the stepmom. - [laughs]
- Auditions for next season are officially open.
Go to AGTauditions.com.
[triumphant music]
[cheers and applause]
- This act is Howie's "All-Stars" Golden Buzzer.
Back in 2019, they literally lit up "AGT."
They came on the show with an incredible legacy
to live up to.
And they went way above and beyond that.
From Ukraine, here's Light Balance Kids.
[cheers and applause]
[dramatic music]
- Because of the war in Ukraine,
coming on "AGT All-Stars," for us, was very difficult.
We just couldn't leave Ukraine.
We all have to have a clearance from the government.
When we finally made it here, for our first performance,
we have only five days to practice.
It was very difficult, but we wanted
to show that we're fighters.
So we worked so hard,
and we did the best performance in our lives.
- Let me tell you something.
It was your best performance you've ever done.
* *
- To hear Simon say that, it was like
something exploded inside of us.
- If I can do anything on behalf of America,
on behalf of "AGT All-Stars"
to bring you even more light than you brought us,
I'd like to do that.
[cheers and applause]
- And then we got a Golden Buzzer.
We were finally, truly on the stage.
- Thank you so much!
- We are feeling so happy.
And we haven't felt that happy for so long.
We want to win, because we want to perform in Las Vegas.
We want to perform around the world.
But we're fighting against the best of the best.
So we have to do even better than we did before.
We're feeling very excited
to show a completely new performance...
and show the world that...
no matter what, light always wins.
[cheers and applause]
[insects chirping]
- Hello? [bird hooting]

* Whoa, oh, oh, I always feel like somebody's watching me *

- Aah! - Whoa.
- Oh!

[American Authors' "Microphone"]
* *
- * Turn me up a little bit louder, louder *
* Just a little bit louder now *
* I just want my microphone, my microphone *
* Turn me up a little bit louder, louder *
* Just a little bit louder now *
* I just want my microphone, my microphone *
* So, boom, check one, check one, two, three *
* Is anybody hear listening? *
- [roars]
- * Hear me now, two, three *
* Ooh, la, la, the world's on fire *
* And all my friends are getting higher *
* I just want my microphone, my microphone *
* Turn me up a little bit louder, louder *
* Just a little bit louder now *
* I just want my microphone, my microphone *
* Turn me up a little bit louder, louder *
* Just a little bit louder now *
* Turn me up a little bit louder in my bones, oh *
* Turn me up a little bit louder, louder *
* Just a little bit louder now *
* Turn me up a little bit louder in my soul *
* Turn me up a little bit louder, louder *
- Yes!
Heck, yeah! Oh! Yes!
[wild cheering] Whoa!
[cheers and applause]
[rousing music]
* *
- Whoo! - Whoo!
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
[wild cheering continues]
- My Golden Buzzer. - Light Balance Kids!
- Wow!
- Howie? - This is my Golden Buzzer!
This was so exciting. This was so energetic.
You always bring the light.
And I tell you, you proved me right sending you all the way.
You're my Golden Buzzer,
sending you all the way to the finals.
You deserve to be here.
You deserve, in my opinion, to win the whole thing.
You need to have your own room in Las Vegas.
This is probably one of the most exciting
live performances I have ever seen.
So, superfans, vote.
This is the winner in my mind.
[cheers and applause]
- Heidi?
- I mean, honestly, you were so good last time,
I didn't think you could top it, but you just did.
You just did.
It is so good, the energy that you guys bring.
I love the hybrid
between, you know, the technology and the dance.
And everything is so in sync, what you do--it was amazing.
[cheers and applause]
- Simon, did you like that? - No.
[shocked murmurs, booing]
I loved it.
- Yes. [cheers and applause]
- This show, through destiny, whatever,
it's brought the older group and the younger group together,
which, in my opinion, has created even more magic
than we've seen previously, genuinely.
And I think you're such nice people,
you've got to now demand what you are owed,
which is your own show in Vegas.
You're so creative. You have the talent.
And bearing in mind everything you've had to go through,
it's remarkable, and I think you're remarkable.
The performance was remarkable,
and this is, I think, maybe unbeatable.
[cheers and applause]
- People make some noise one more time
for the Light Balance Kids!
[rousing music]
* *
Coming up...
Season 14 champion Kodi Lee puts his title on the line.
And the last two "AGT" runners-up
look for redemption,
as they push to go one step further and win the title.
The battle continues.
[cheers and applause]
[rousing music]
- One of the things I love about "AGT"
is that I get to pick a Golden Buzzer.
And here's the sax player who grabbed my attention
and my heart on "AGT" last summer.
He's overcome a lot of obstacles in his life,
but they've only made him more determined to be the best.
From Atlanta, Georgia, here's Avery Dixon.
[cheers and applause]
- I was born premature.
I was one pound, eight ounces.
So, growing up, I looked and sounded different.
Coming into this competition, Season 17,
I was a kid that had been bullied my whole life.
I had just left college.
My confidence and dreams had kind of fallen apart.
I wanted to quit music.
I didn't think it was meant for me anymore.
But my story gets much better.
[cheers and applause, saxophone playing]
- You've got a full house of people in here on their feet.
If you were looking for validation, you've got it.
- I witnessed myself being reborn
on that stage.
Now, coming back on "All-Stars,"
I'm a totally different person.
* *
- All right, you guys. - What's up, man?
- I am the leader of my own band.
I've been here before, and I've lost.
This time, I'm here to win.
We got to put on a show. I want this thing flawless.
- Yes, sir.
* *
- This is the Avery Dixon Experience.
I want this to be a traveling show.
I want to go to Carnegie Hall.
I want to go to the Sydney Opera House.
Unh! See what I'm saying?
- Seeing my child with so much more confidence,
it's very amazing.
Gosh, I'm like--I can't wait to see him
get on that stage and just kill it.
* *
- This time, I believe in myself,
and I'm confident.
And I'm gonna give them a show that, you know I want to win.
- We love you, Avery!
- Take your seats, please, folks.
- I'm ready.
And what's about to happen next is about to blow your mind.
* *
[cheers and applause]
Hello, everybody, and welcome back
to the Avery Dixon All-Star Experience.
Here we go.
One, two, three, let's go!
[upbeat jazzy version
of Earth, Wind & Fire's "September" playing]
* *
All right, let's break it down.
* *
- Wow.
* *
Come on, come on. [explosion]
[wild cheering]
[rousing music]
- I mean, that's so good! - That was amazing.
Wow.
- Yeah, I mean, that was incredible.
- Avery Dixon!
[laughs]
Oh, my goodness.
Simon?
- That was astonishing. - Yes.
- I mean, seriously astonishing.
I mean, I know we've said this a lot,
but I have to take you back to the time we first met.
You were so shy,
and you weren't sure whether, you know, you were going
to get a good reaction or not.
And, hello, fast-forward to this.
[cheers and applause]
Everything was brilliant.
I mean, it was a brilliant song choice.
The staging was fantastic.
I love the band.
I loved your dancing... - Yes.
- Your personality.
And that's what it takes to maybe--
I'm saying this a lot tonight, I know,
but that's what it takes to win a show like this.
- Thank you. Thank you.
- Heidi, you were on your feet.
- That was sax-sational.
- [laughs] - Good.
- You always rise to the occasion.
When you come on to that stage, you give it your all,
and I see that.
You're incredible. - Thank you so much, Heidi.
- Howie?
- You know, ultimately, who's gonna win this show?
One act is gonna win, and it's gonna be up to the superfans.
But if I had to vote right now myself,
I'm voting you most improved.
Nobody has taken a journey like you.
You know, you talked about how you were bullied
for your voice, and now you're announcing your own numbers.
And your voice is so cool, so great.
And keep raising the bar every time you come out.
Now you got choreography. Now you got swagger.
Your choice of music--
I'm so glad I'm not one of the voting superfans,
because this is gonna be the hardest night of their lives.
- Oh, yeah. - Good luck tonight, Avery.
Avery Dixon! [cheers and applause]
* *
- That was amazing, amazing.
- Out of everyone, he is the most improved.
I mean, he is a completely different person.
- I think it's a chance he may win this thing.
* *
[cheers and applause]
- We say winning "AGT" changes your life,
and that is so true for this singer.
Just auditioning was a big step for him back in 2019.
He won "AGT" that year,
and since then, he's become a massive star.
From Lake Elsinore, California, he is Kodi Lee.
[cheers and applause]
- When Kodi hears a song,
he literally can play you the melody back right away.
The lyrics, we just have to read to him a couple times,
and then he starts to get the lyrics.
* *
And that's, I think, the question
that a lot of people have,
is, like, how can he do this, but he can't do this?
- * Won't you give me tonight... *
Singing makes me feel so happy.
- He didn't let teachers teach him, you know,
and he did his music all on his own.
He had asked to go on "America's Got Talent."
And it helped with his communication.
You know, he's been able to engage in the world
more actively.
Even, like, his speech teacher called,
and was like, "The stuff we had been working on for years
was, like, a breakthrough, just being on 'AGT.'"
- * I'll be there by your side *
After "AGT," I started writing my own music
and a music video.
- A lot of people do recognize him,
and they ask him for pictures,
and he loves it.
He absolutely loves it.
He literally changed the world--
literally changed the world.
- Kodi Lee! [cheers and applause]
- When he won, I was not expecting it.
Now coming back as a second time,
yeah, I think he's got a big chance of winning.
- Heck, yeah!
[cheers and applause]
- He needs to knock it out of the park.
Tom Ball gave him a run for his money, though.
- Oh, yes.
- Five, four, three, two, one!
[cheers and applause]

all: [chanting] Kodi, Kodi, Kodi, Kodi...
[Howie laughs]
- Kodi Lee!
[cheers and applause]
- Howie?
- You know, I think you're amazing.
And that song--
the lyric is "We can be heroes, just for one day."
Kodi, you are a hero every day.
You really are. - Thank you.
[giggles]
- Heidi?
- You shine so bright on that stage.
And when I think about "America's Got Talent,"
when I think about "All-Stars," you are the ultimate All-Star.
You just are. You just are.
I love you so much. And this was fantastic.
Heck, yeah! - Heck, yeah!
- Heck to the yeah! - [giggles]
- Simon?
- That was just stunning, honestly stunning.
I mean, boy...
that lyric took on a whole new meaning
for us just then, really.
- Thank you. - Really.
And you have something really, really special about you, Kodi.
You have this real gift.
And every time you perform, there's just silence.
- Yeah. - Everyone's focused.
And they're listening to every word.
And then we're wondering what are you gonna do with the song.
And then you hit those big notes.
And you're so cool and just so brilliant.
- Thank you. - [laughs]
- So we wanted to let you guys know
that we picked this song, actually,
because we feel that you guys are our heroes.
- Thank you, Sheila.
- Well, good luck tonight, Kodi.
- Yeah, good job!
- So will that performance win the competition for Kodi?
The superfans will decide.
- They love him. - One more time for Kodi Lee!
- Yes!
all: [chanting] Kodi, Kodi, Kodi,
Kodi, Kodi, Kodi.
- Four years ago, no one knew who Kodi Lee was.
It's insane. - It's insane.
- What a story?
- What do you think? Who's gonna win?
- Oh, who's gonna win? - Yeah.
- I think Kodi. - Do you?
- I mean, look at everyone. Everyone...
- See our audience? - Loves, loves, loves him.
- Coming up...
self-taught aerialist Aidan Bryant
has seen ten acts perform.
And now it's his turn
to give his most death-defying performance yet.
Don't look away.
[cheers and applause]
- This performer's career began
when he took his grandmother's bedsheet, tied it to a tree,
and tried his luck as an aerialist.
He loved it.
He started teaching himself the skills he needed.
And, well, he's come a long way since then.
He was the runner-up on "AGT" 2021.
Tonight he's going for the win.
From Prince George, Virginia, he's Aidan Bryant.
[cheers and applause]
[serious piano music]
- I come from a very small town.
There's not that many people.
It's kind of like a country place.
- As a kid, he didn't play team sports.
His schooling was a big challenge.
But Aidan was always creative.
When he was 14 years old, he came up and asked his grandma
if he could use a bedsheet.
Of course, she said, "No. What do you want it for?"
But he got it anyway, because he's determined
to do what he wants to do.
When he first started doing aerial,
I told him I don't want you to hurt yourself.
He told me, don't worry about it.
But he's my son.
My mom said, "I know it's dangerous,
but this is his dream."
And she really wanted him to pursue his dreams.
* *
She was so proud of him.
- This is probably
the most important performance of my life,
because, just recently, my grandma passed away.
* *
And this performance tonight is dedicated to her.
- Grandma would be very proud to see him on stage.
* *
She's watching him, and she's keeping them safe.
And he knows that.
* *
- I'm just hoping I nail this performance,
because I do not want to be second runner-up again.
I've watched this show ever since I was younger,
and it's always been my dream to win.
* *
[cheers and applause]
[suspenseful music]
- All right, let's go, Aidan. You got this.
- Wow, it looks like a spaceship.
Ugh. [crowd gasps]
* *
- Does he not have a spine?

[Beethoven's "Fur Elise"]
[suspenseful music]

- Are you kidding me? - No, no, no.
[cheers and applause]
[swelling symphonic music]
- Yes, Aidan!

[cheers and applause]
- Aidan Bryant!
[cheers and applause continue]
- Heidi?
- You literally take my breath away every time
when you up there.
I've never seen some of the moves that you do.
You're like in a different league of "aerialism."
- I train really hard. Thank you so much.
- I mean, incredible. - Howie?
- You combine, like, such stunning danger and strength
with such elegance and grace...
- Thank you so much, Howie. - And contortion and dance.
I have never seen... - Never.
- Anything like that in "aerialism"...
[laughter]
- Thank you. - Before.
You just set the bar or the rope or whatever that is.
- Aerialists. - Thank you so much.
- Simon?
- I am literally searching for words right now.
Just remind me how old you are.
- I'm 18. - And you taught yourself?
- Yes, I'm completely self-taught.
- Okay, well, this is like one of those moments
I remember as a kid when I used to watch the Olympics,
and one would outdo the other, you know,
in the gymnast part of the Olympic Games.
- Right. - And the judges at the end
would just go, 10, 10...
- Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. - 10, 10, 10.
I mean, that's what it felt like to me.
- Thank you so much, Simon.
- I have never ever, ever,
on a movie, on this show, anywhere,
seen anything so incredible as that
and so dangerous and so brilliant
and so well-coordinated.
I mean, just when I--
I literally turned around a second ago,
and I said, "Who do you think's gonna win?"
I think you've just completely changed everything
after that performance.
Really. That was amazing. - Yeah, Aidan!
- Thank you so much, Simon.
- Now, Aidan, you wanted redemption
for coming in second to Dustin Tavella on "AGT."
But now you've beat him to make it to these finals.
Could you go all the way? - I'm hoping for it.
That would be a dream come true of mine.
That would be awesome. It'd be my dream.
- Good luck!
Make some noise for Aidan Bryant!
[cheers and applause]
- Incredible!
- Now give it up for all of our finalists.
[rousing music]
- Wow, what a night. What a night.
- Yes.
* *
- It's a good lineup. - An amazing lineup.
- Okay, the finalists have had their shot.
Now all they can do is wait.
Find out who will be the "AGT All-Stars" Champion
in next week's finale.
I am Terry Crews. Good night, America!
