OVER THE WORLD. WE RECORDED 150 SONGS.

I KNEW I WANTED TO MAKE MORE THAN AYE CAPPELLA MUSIC, SO I

>> Mel B: WHAT? >> CAN I SAY SOMETHING MORE?

>> Simon: NO. WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME.

DECISION COMING BACK. WELL DONE.

ONE OF THE MOST TALENTED SINGERS WE'VE HAD ON THE SHOW.

WAIT. WAIT.

YOU TO CHRISTOPHER CROSS. YOU KNOW, I'M GOING TO STEAL

FROM SIMON. SIMON ALWAYS USES THE TERM YOU

GOT TO FIND YOUR LANE. YOU GOT TO PICK YOUR LANE.

I DON'T KNOW THAT COUNTRY IS THE BEST GENRE FOR YOU VOICE.

>> Sofia: NO. >> Mel B: IT'S SOME POP THOUGH.

>> Howie: I THINK HE'S MORE POP. I JUST DON'T THINK -- IN THE

COUNTRY WORLD I DON'T THINK THIS IS GOING TO SICK OUT.

>> Terry: SIMON, WHAT DO YOU THINK?

>> Simon: LOOK, YOU HAVE A LOT OF DETERMINATION.

IF I HAD WATCHED THE REHEARSAL, I WOULD HAVE SAID TO YOU, TAKE

OFF THE SILLY HAT AND THE JACKET.

SLOW THE SONG DOWN AND JUST FOCUS ON YOUR VOICE AND THAT'S

IT. >> Howie: YEAH.

>> Simon: BECAUSE, FOR ME, IT WAS TOO OVER THE TOP.

SO I DIDN'T LIKE IT. >> ALL RIGHT.

>> Terry: AUSTIN, LISTEN, YOU SANG AN ORIGINAL SONG AND YOU

HAD THIS AUDIENCE ON THEIR FEET. DOES THAT VALUE DAIDATE YOU?

>> ABSOLUTELY, MAN. I'VE BEEN FIGHTING TO BE HERE.

I'LL KEEP FIGHTING. I'VE BEEN A RISK TAKER MY WHOLE

LIFE. I'LL WAIT AND SEE WHAT AMERICA

THINKS OF IT. >> Terry: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT,

AUSTIN. ONLY THREE ACTS WILL MAKE THE

SEMI-FINAL, AND THAT'S ALL DOWN TO HOW YOU VOTE.

DEVIL. I WAS JUST JUMPING OFF OF STUFF.

MY MOM WOULD BE LIKE THIS IS YOUR FOURTH TIME BREAKING YOUR

ARM. YOU GONNA NEED TO STOP.

I HAVE A LOT OF ENERGY. I WENT THROUGH MARTIAL ARTS, AND

ONCE I FOUND DANCE, THAT'S WHEN I FOUND OUT WHO I REALLY WAS.

THAT LED ME TO SOFAVANNAH BANANAS, LIKE A HARLEM GLOBE TROTTERS

BASEBALL TEAM. FOR MY FIRST AUDITION, I DIDN'T

WANT TO BE A REGULAR DANCER THAT GETS ON STAGE.

>> Mel B: IT HIT ME LIKE A WRECKING BALL AND THAT'S IT.

BEING A SOLO DANCER IS SO DIFFICULT, BUT YOU MAKE IT SO

MUCH FUN. WE CAN SEE YOUR PERSONALITY

WHILE YOU'RE DOING IT. I MEAN, SUPER CHARISMATIC.

I'M GLAD YOU US MORE TIME THAN IN THE AUDITION.

TO AN EXPERIENCE LIKE LOSING YOUR HOME, BUT LOSING YOUR TOWN

IS VERY DIFFERENT. WE GREW UP A MILE UP THE ROAD.

THE CITY CENTER IS SPECIAL TO US BECAUSE OUR FATHER WORKED HERE

FOR MANY YEARS. >> MY DAD USED TO TELL HIS

CO-WORKERS THAT ONE DAY HIS CHILDREN WILL SING THAT STAGE.

YOU KNOW, EVEN BEING UP THERE ON STAGE, EVERYTHING THAT WE WERE

WEARING WERE DONATIONS. >> Simon: FOUR YESES.

>> IT JUST FELT GOOD. >> WE DO FEEL LIKE THE TIME HAS

PASSED AND ALLOWED FOR THINGS TO MOVE FORWARD IN SMALL STEPS.

SUPER BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO HAVE FOUND TEMPORARY HOUSING AND

ACT CAUSED THE JUDGES TO GO THREE EVERY SINGLE HUMAN EMOTION

AND MEL B HIT THE GOLDEN BUZZER. MEL, WHY DID YOU HIT THE BUTTON?

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

WE'LL BE RIGHT BACK AFTER THIS.

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

OK we've seen a lot of magic acts over the years,

but here's a first.

It's an AI magician.

Here's mastermind.

I was not born.

I was constructed for the signals from the algorithms,

deciding what you see, and who you speak to.

I use what already controls your life,

your phones, your memories.

Your thoughts can make the impossible.

What are you doing possible.

This is the best magic we've seen all year Tonight I'm going

deeper to shock the judges.

The audience.

And you watching at home.

This device was built to bring us closer together.

And yet now it feels like we are scrolling

further and further apart.

So let's change that.

I combine magic and technology to create

moments of true connection.

These days you communicate more in emojis than anything else.

Simon, these are all completely different.

Simon, please touch the back of one emoji.

Hang on, hang on.

Can we go back one.

That one.

This one Yeah look at it.

Focus on it.

We will leave it here for now.

These days, it's easier to connect

to Wi-Fi than each other.

So let's start there.

Simon focus on your emoji.

But this isn't just happening on my phone.

Harriett may I borrow your phone.

My phone please No thank you.

Howie watch closely OK I'm holding onto this.

But why.

Simon, please show your card to the camera.

Show it to the camera to the camera, to the camera.

That is a camera.

Did you say that is the love heart No I want everyone

in this audience to think of someone

you have not spoken to in a very long time.

Family, a friend, someone you wish to reconnect with.

Now, there are thousands of seats in this theater.

We must narrow it down to just one.

Ask AI to choose a random seat.

Seek OK.

I choose a random seat.

Thank you.

H five.

The person sitting in row 8.

Seat five.

Please stand and shout your name.

Amy Amy.

Do you have someone in mind you wish to reconnect with.

And you just thought of this person now.

Is that correct Yes hold your phone to your head like this.

Close your eyes.

Focus on the name of this person.

Amy is this the person you were just thinking of Yes yes.

Do I answer.

Do I pick it up.

Answer hello.

Ask them where they are.

Where are you.

She's getting in an elevator.

An elevator.

Amy sit down.

Everyone else in row 8.

Hold your phone high in the air No ushers.

Elevator we started tonight as strangers.

But this moment has connected us all together forever.

Simon, you chose the love heart.

Now you chose row H. On Holly's phone,

a random friend was thinking about getting

in to the elevator.

AGT thank you for proving that when we connect,

the impossible becomes reality.

My mind.

Sofia I don't know what happened.

Elevator H5 Love heart No, no, I do know what happened.

It's like.

I'm sorry.

I mean, it was just so, like, you magic, magical and

on a suspected.

And I think you really stepped it up tonight,

I think Yes I mean, this is such a different kind of magic

that I really, really like it.

Mel B. I'm so confused, but I think I get it.

It was magical.

Howie, you know this is a place where magic wins.

And that was one of the most amazing magical acts I've seen.

For me, that's been the best act Tonight,

I only have one question Where's my phone,

it's over there OK Simon, I would take that away.

I didn't quite understand the end.

Am I being a bit stupid.

Elevator spells love heart.

You randomly picked an emoji.

It picked.

It ended up on my phone.

Got that elevator picked.

Where does the H 5.

H 5 was a seat.

Elevator spells love heart.

Watch this tonight.

I don't want no spoilers.

Rushed tonight.

It was brilliant.

And you will vote for him.

All right Good luck tonight, mastermind.

Do you want mastermind to make the semi-final?

Get voting.

Do what you do and put him through OK moving right along.

Great music resonates all over the world.

And here's a sensational Hard Rock band from India.

It's Girish and the chronicles.

Yogesh and we are siblings.

Our parents were more into Bollywood and Nepali music.

Folk one of us, I don't remember who it was.

Got a cassette play the hit button and I was like Whoa.

Guns N' Roses, Metallica, Def Leppard.

We were going crazy about it.

The first mystery was, how does a guitar sound like that.

I have steel bracelet, and I would

put that on the side of my acoustic guitar

to make it sound distorted.

You come from the other side of the globe

and do something which is so traditionally American American

I could see that rock and roll was truly born in this place

for sure, because everyone has it in their DNA.

American rock scene.

It's what we fell in love with rainbow rocks.

It's not just about being as good as what

we did in the first audition round,

but it's about being better to win.

America's Got Talent would mean everything we've dreamed of.

It would all come true.

Rock and roll.

Will they get their shot at the semi-final

in just a couple of minutes.

>> Terry: I HEARD YOU BROKE YOUR FINGER.

DID THAT MAKE IT HARDER TO PERFORM TONIGHT?

>> YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT. A CAR HIT ME TWO WEEKS BACK.

YEAH, I MANAGED SOMEHOW. I BROKE ONE OF MY FINGERS.

WHEN I COME IN FRONT OF SUCH A GOOD AUDIENCE, PAIN IS NOTHING

TO ME. THAT'S HOW I THINK ROCK 'N ROLL

GOES ON. >> Terry: WHAT A MOMENT IS THIS

"AMERICA'S GOT TALENT."

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ] *

IF YOU DO. THIS PERFORMER HAS BEEN ON "AGT"

BEFORE AS PART OF THE DUO DEADLY GAMES.

NOW SHE'S BACK ON HER OWN, AND SHE'S PUSHING THE LIMITS OF

DANGER. HERE'S ANNA SARANINA.

>> SEVEN YEARS AGO ON "AGT" WAS MY LAST PERFORMANCE WITH DEADLY

GAMES. WHEN I PERFORMED, I WOULD SMILE,

BUT INSIDE ME WERE TEARS BECAUSE I KNEW I'M NOT COMING BACK.

AFTER THE DIVORCE, I LOST EVERYTHING.

WHEN YOU'RE A MOTHER, IT'S HOW WE CAN SURVIVE.

HOW I CAN BRING FOOD ON TABLE. I START TO THINK.

I DID EVERYTHING TO PROVIDE MY DAUGHTER THE BEST LIFE, BUT I

DIDN'T WANT TO BE A SHADOW ANYMORE.

I WANTED TO SHOW WHAT I CAN DO SO I LEARNED NEW SKILLS

PRACTICING EVERY SINGLE DAY. >> Mel B: I THINK YOU ARE THE

ULTIMATE GIRL POWER STANDING RIGHT THERE.

>> BUT THEN -- >> Simon: IF YOU'RE GOING TO GO

FORWARD, THIS IS VERY SLOW. BEFORE, IT WAS LIKE A PROPER

SHOW. >> THIS TIME I HAVE TO BE

BETTER, FASTER, MORE WOW. I'M GOING TO SHOW MY DAUGHTER

HOW TO BE A BAD ASS. [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ]

STRONG WOMAN, I LOVE YOUR STORY. I THINK AMERICA IS GOING TO LOVE

YOU TONIGHT. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> Terry: SIMON, YOU WERE ON YOUR FEET.

>> Simon: BIG, BIG, BIG STEP UP. I TELL YOU WHAT.

THIS IS WHAT WAS GOING THROUGH MY MIND.

MEL IS ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS AND I REMEMBER THE SLR FIRST

TIME WE HAD DINNER. THE STARTER WAS OKAY.

THE MAIN COURSE WAS A BIT BORING.

THE DESSERT WAS AMAZING. THAT WAS LIKE YOUR ACT.

THE END WAS GREAT. A BIT SLOW, BUT WHAT AN ENDING.

>> Terry: MEL B? >> Mel B: I DIDN'T COOK THE

DINNER, SIMON, DID I? >> Simon: YOU DIDN'T COOK IT.

I'M JUST SAYING THE WHOLE NIGHT WAS SORT OF SLOW AND THEN WE HAD

A NICE DESSERT. >> Mel B: YOU KNOW WHAT, HE'LL

GET IT. ANNA, I LOVE YOUR ENERGY AND

YOUR STRENGTH AND YOUR STORY. WHAT YOU DID TONIGHT, I SAW IN

YOUR FACE THAT, EVEN YOU WERE SHOCKED THAT IT ACTUALLY WORKED

OUT. IT WAS DANGEROUS.

BY THE WAY, YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY STUNNING I HAVE TO SAY.

IT WAS BETTER THAN HER FIRST AUDITION.

>> Terry: HOWIE? >> Howie: HERE'S THE THING, I

AGREE WITH BOTH OF THEM. HERE'S THE THING, IF YOU'RE

LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE VOTED THROUGH, ALL I WOULD SAY TO YOU

IS EVERYTHING YOU DO IS AMAZING AND MAGIC.

I'M LOOKING AT YOUR DAUGHTER'S FACE AND SHE'S SO BEAUTIFUL.

YOU SHOULD PRELOAD AND KEEP THE SAFETY ON AND TELL US WHAT

YOU'RE GOING TO DO. WE'RE WATCHING YOU SET IT UP

WITHOUT KNOWING WHAT TO EXPECT. ONCE WE SEE IT, IT'S AMAZING.

>> THANK YOU. >> Terry: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT,

I DO NOW. I LOVED READING ENCYCLOPEDIAS.

THAT'S THE BASIS FOR WHAT I DO. I DISCOVERED RAP MUSIC.

A FRIEND FROM SCHOOL GAVE ME AN EMINEM ALBUM.

SMUGGLED IT INTO MY ROOM AND PUT IT ON PLAY.

IT CHANGED MY WHOLE WORLD. I THOUGHT ALL RAP WAS 100%

IMPROVISED. MY FRIENDS WOULD SAY RAP ABOUT

THOSE SHEEP. I JUST WRITE IN MY HEAD AND

FLOW. * HE LIKES THEM RIPE AND JUICY *

YOU MADE THAT UP ON THE SPOT. >> IT FEELS LIKE A VALIDATION OF

WHAT I COMMITTED MY LIFE TO. NOW THAT I'M HERE, EVERY OTHER

ACT GOES ON STAGE KNOWING EXACTLY WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO DO

BUT EVERYONE IS CREATING THIS RAP WITH ME WHICH IS

UNREHEARSABLE. SO MANY THINGS CAN GO WRONG.

THIS QUARTER-FINAL. IT'S ONE OF SOFIA'S GOLDEN

BUZZERS FROM THE AUDITIONS. SOFIA, WHAT CAUGHT YOUR EYE

ABOUT THIS SINGER? >> Sofia: IT WAS EVERYTHING.

IT WAS NOT JUST HER VOICE. IT WAS THE STORY.

JESSICA WAS HERE 20 YEARS AGO. IT WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT SHE

CAME TO "AGT." SHE PERFORMED WHEN SHE WAS A

LITTLE KID. NOW ON OUR 20th ANNIVERSARY

SHE'S BACK AND PREGNANT. >> Terry: ALL RIGHT.

SHE'S FROM HOUSTON, TEXAS. HERE'S THE LOWDOWN ON

JESSICA SANCHEZ. >> HERE'S A FACE.

BACK ON SEASON ONE OF "AGT" I WAS LITERALLY A BABY MYSELF.

LATER FOR THE LIVE SHOWS, I PACKED MULTIPLE BAGS IN CASE I

HAVE MY BABY EARLY. >> HOW'S IT FEELING, JESSICA?

GIRL WITH ME. >> Sofia: YOU'RE SO READY TO DO

ALL THIS. >> I FEEL THIS BIG DREAM SPARKED

INSIDE OF ME AGAIN. THIS DETERMINATION TO SHOW MY

BABY NEVER STOP BELIEVING FOR HERSELF.

FEEL LIKE IT'S SUCH A BIG COMEBACK FOR ME.

HOW CAN I TOP MY AUDITION? YOUR BODY CHANGES WHEN YOU'RE

PREGNANT. THE BREATHING DIFFERENCES, IT'S

BEEN IMPACTING MY SINGING A LITTLE BIT, BUT I'M HERE TO

FINISH WHAT I STARTED 20 YEARS AGO.

I'M SO READY TO SHOW AMERICA WHAT WE GOT.

SHE PROBABLY FEELS THE BUTTERFLIES IN THERE.

VOICE DOESN'T FEEL THE SAME, BUT THAT WAS SPECTACULAR.

AMERICA IS LOVING YOU. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH.

>> Sofia: YOU ARE THE BEST. >> Terry: SIMON?

>> Simon: I'M ABSOLUTELY BLOWN AWAY.

A FEW SECONDS AGO BEFORE JESSICA CAME OUT, I HEARD SHE WASN'T

WANTED TO COME OUT. SHE SAID, NO, I WANT TO DO THIS.

I SAID, YOU'RE A GREAT PERSON. S
