Hollywood

boulevard was a buzz when Simon cowell received an iconic star

on the Hollywood walk of fame. Thank you all of you.

It means a lot to me. Thank you.

You killed it tonight. This was amazing.

This is wow. Heidi: I'm so proud of you.

Simon: That was brilliant, fantastic.

Mel: So ready. Howie: So ready.

Mel: Come on. ♪♪♪♪

Simon: The end goal here has to be Vegas.

Announcer: Live from Hollywood, it's "America's got

talent"! Here's your host, Tyra banks.

Tyra: This is Hollywood, and this is "agt."

Okay people, it's simple -- this is the last chance for any

of our acts to be voted into the semi-finals.

They're gonna walk out here tonight, knowing that if they

nail it, they could be one step closer to being a major new

star. But if they mess up --

no. We're not even going to go

there. We're not going to think about

that. The pressure is on, though.

And all of the acts know -- the world is watching.

This is a big night and we're gonna get big opinions down at

the desk. Let's hear it for our "agt"

judges -- Howie mandel, Mel b, Heidi Klum

and Simon Cowell! All right.

So there was some big showbiz news this week -- Simon, you got

a star on the Hollywood walk of fame.

Simon, how did that feel? Simon: I feel like I'm living

the dream. It was a blast, and I'm

grateful. Tyra: And it's there forever

and ever, Simon. Simon: That is amazing.

Tyra: This is a spot not on the Hollywood walk of fame but

the semifinals. Coming up,

these guys are more than a dance crew -- they're a dance family,

with a connection that goes way beyond the dance floor.

It's the future kingz. Our family is everything to

us. Coming from bad neighborhoods,

there was a lot of gang violence.

It was a full time job just to stay out of trouble.

That's why we started the future kingz.

It made us feel safe. It gave us hope for the future.

See you all next week. It made us a family.

Some of us are already brothers.

Come on, we got to go. We all rely on each other.

Blood couldn't make us any closer.

We got to go, man. We take pride knowing we have

each other's backs and that's what keeps us focussed.

We wouldn't be able to make it this far without this family.

Now that we're at the live shows, we know that anything is

possible together. We're here to when "America's

got talent." We got this.

Tyra: The future kingz in the house.

Simon? Simon: I'm giving you a

standing ovation, one for the performance and one for who you

are as people. You are some of the nicest guys

we've ever had on this show. Thank you.

Simon: You're so Sincere, so focussed.

That was like watching a very cool commercial.

Thank you. Simon: That's the best

compliment I can give. I'll take it.

Thank you, Simon. Tyra: Howie?

Now,.

Howie: Everything he said, this diverse group in ages, it's

wonderful to see you come together.

I'm so excited. America has to vote.

Vote, America. Thank you.

Tyra: Mel b.? Mel: Some of the choreography

I wasn't impressed with. What I am impressed with is your

unamit -- is that the word? Simon: No.

Mel: How united you are, your strength and loyalty.

I love how cool and edgy you are.

You have to step up the choreography.

Tyra: Heidi. Heidi: I liked it.

It felt like an old school dance off.

Tyra: They got the party started.

Get on the phone, online, use the agt app.

Voting is going to be open right up to 7:00 A.M. eastern tomorrow

morning opinion it's open now. Get to it!

Announcer: Coming up -- Simon: For me it's about

being real. Actions speak louder than words.

Heidi: The sparks are flying back and forth.

I think you have a hit right there.

Simon: This is one of the most incredible things I

..

..

We mean that. All right, so now being on the

agt live shows is a big deal. But it's not the only life

changing event these next two singers have in their future.

They are us the duo. Is that the heartbeat?

The fluttering? Yes.

That's her heartbeat. Hearing the heartbeat for the

first time, oh, my gosh. We get to hear so many beautiful

sounds. By far, that is my favorite

sound that I have ever heard. Oh, my gosh.

That's amazing. Having a baby come into this

world changes the way I think about things.

Being a musician definitely has ups and downs.

Financially, you never know when the paycheck is going to come.

So that's why "America's got talent" is so important to us.

This baby is coming whether we are stable or not.

♪♪ And I won't let you fall ♪♪ tonight we are singing a song

about our baby. The song talks about me wanting

the baby to be just like her because I know as soon as I hold

the baby in my arms that I'm going to look into her eyes and

fall in love just like I did with her mama.

I can't wait to sing it for America to hear.

"America's got talent" is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

We'll definitely not let it slip away.

Especially now with baby on the way.

Tyra: Whoa! We've got three performers on

this stage. Not me.

Simon? Simon: We're going to have to

change the name to us the trio now.

First of all, congratulations. Secondly, congratulations on

going back to your roots when we first saw your first audition.

I love the percussion, the song. I love you two.

I am praying America puts you through to the semifinals.

I think you deserve it. [ Cheers and applause ]

Tyra: Mel b.? Mel: That actually made me

really emotional. Same.

Mel: You look gorgeous pregnant.

Tyra: How many months are you?

I'm seven and a half months now.

Tyra: You look amazing. Mel: I love the song to your

baby girl. I loved it.

Tyra: Heidi? Heidi: You two are the cutest

couple. It was a little schmaltzy, but I

love it. We love it.

Heidi: We do. Tyra: Howie?

Howie: First of all, thank you for inviting us all to your

gender reveal party. Simon: That's true.

Howie: Out of your performances this is by far the

favorite. This was wonderful.

Thank you! Howie: I don't know if it's

that you're carrying and your reproduction is a wonderful

thing we can all get together. Vote for these two and the one

still inside. Tyra: All right.

What do you think about ma mommy and daddy did?

I think it was so amazing. I want you to vote for my mama

and my daddy. That's exactly what she said.

Tyra: Exactly. Good luck tonight you two --

three! If you want to see these three

in the semifinals get online at nbc. Com or use the official

"America's got talent" app. You can download that from the

app store or Google play. All right.

Coming up, an opera singer. He's hoping to get you on your

feet, and a magician hopes to leave you gasping.

I know you want to see that.

Tyra: So here is an act who got sent home after the last

round. But then the judges got

together, they argued, they fought, it actually got

physical -- well, not real physical.

But, you know, they all decided to bring him back as a wild

card. And you're about to hear why.

Here's Daniel Emmet. Most teenagers don't fall in

love with classical music, but once I started singing, I never

wanted to stop. After my performance at judge

cuts, I felt great. I gave it everything I had.

But it just wasn't enough. Simon: I'm going to cut to

the chase, Daniel, you haven't made it through.

It was heartbreaking. Howie: Don't give up.

But this journey is not over. Now I find out I'm back on the

show. I'm the wild card.

It is beyond my wildest expectations.

As a wild card there's even more pressure to prove that I deserve

to be in the competition. I've been training harder, I've

been training longer. Make that note better, hold this

note longer. Do it again.

Do it again. It has to be right.

There are things in what I'll be performing I've never attempted

before. It's something I feel comes from

my soul. Every note has to be perfect.

There's no room for mistakes. I will not fail.

♪♪♪♪ ♪♪♪♪

Tyra: All the judges are on their feet.

You guys feel the heat in this room, people?

Heidi? Heidi: Oh my god!

I mean, you -- how good are you? Oh, my word.

You -- I mean, you really are one of the best strongest

singers that we have here on the show.

If I had one more golden buzzer I would push that right now so

you could go straight to the semifinals.

I just love you, I really, really do.

That -- going higher, what is that?

Thank you so much. I'm so grateful to be back and

be here today. Tyra: You're actually tearing

up. Can you turn.

Simon. Simon: I'm so happy I

persuaded the other three to put you through as a wild card.

It took a lot of persuasion. But we got there together, you

and I Daniel. You may not realize your voice

was so powerful the stage lit up in fire behind you.

That's how big it was. Hats off to you that was what I

call a moment. Congratulations.

Tyra: Howie? Howie: It was surreal.

I feel like my parents took me to see pavarati to see

aerosmith. You make me feel a lot classer

than I am. Tyra: Mel b.

Mel: The key change was everything.

Oh my gosh. If I have one bit of criticism,

I wish you would have started off quieter so the key change

would have been more dramatic, 'cause you can sing.

Heidi: It was dramatic. Tyra: All right.

So how are you feeling? I'm feeling like you have the

young people with the aerosmith and the older people with the

opera. You have a lot of people rooting

for you tonight. I'm so thankful to America

and the judges for bringing me back.

I can't express how much this opportunity means to me.

Thank you. Tyra: You're holding it in,

what are you thinking? I'm thinking this is the

greatest experience of my life, I'm so lucky.

Tyra: Good luck tonight, Daniel.

Remember, only seven acts go through this week.

So if you want Daniel to be one of them, you gotta vote.

You can vote up to ten times for each act with each of the voting

methods. Still to come, we have an

unforgettable and brave violinist and an act who lives

and breathes danger. At the auditions, he terrified

the heck out of the judges with a

Tyra: You know, a lot of big stars that you love have had to

overcome major obstacles. That's what this musician has

had to do every day of his life. He's Brian king Joseph.

♪♪ Some legends are told my entire life has been

challenge after challenge. My only constant has been my

violin, I don't know where I'd be without it.

Growing up with a single mom supporting a family of four,

it's not easy. I had to play violin on the

street just to help feed my family.

But when I was really playing, you know, like really in the

vibe, I'd open my eyes and there'd be like 20 people

standing there. That's when I realized, this is

what I was born to do. Music taught me, you got to

fight for who you are. And it's exactly that mentality

that I'm bringing into the live rounds.

Everything that I've been going through in my life, you know,

being poor, me being sick and having this nerve disease

prepared me for this performance tonight.

I'm here to challenge myself to be the person that I dream to

be. ♪♪♪♪

Tyra: Oh, my goodness. Beautiful.

Oh my gosh, I don't know what to say.

Tonight is crazy. You know, this is going to sound

silly, but one of my biggest memories in life when I was a

little Jewish boy my parents took me to see "fuddiddler on the

roof" this is so much better. Tyra: Mel b.

Mel: You make me emotional. You give it everything, and I

know your pain level is always at number ten and you kill it

every time we see you. You gave us a proper show

tonight and I know you're in pain.

Tyra: Heidi? Heidi: I think you're verial

lenned. And I love your personality.

There's always a smile on your face even though you are in

pain. I love watching you every time.

Tyra: Simon? Simon: Brian, what you are

going through, it's like a singer losing their voice.

You've had this issue with your hands which means you may not be

able to do this much longer but for all the time we've met you

you've always been positive. You were so passionate you broke

a ton of strings. I did.

Simon: That means you wanted it.

I applaud you for everything you did, and everything you've gone

through. I hope America gets behind you

you deserve to be in the next round.

It means so much for me to hear you say this.

Tyra: Talk about. We know you were in pain, but

what are your hands and feet feeling like right now when you

were playing. My hands are feeling like

nothing right now. I'm working on it, and thanks

for all of your support. It means so much to me on my

journey to do this for me and all of you.

Thank you America. Tyra: Everybody at home is

not feeling numb. They're feeling you, I'm sure.

Here's the deal, he is relying on you to keep his dream alive.

If you're calling, it's toll free from landlines.

But please remember, these are 866 numbers, not 800 numbers, so

dial carefully. All right.

So waiting in the wings is the act who's already had Howie

and Heidi freaking out with crazy fear.

And tonight he's got to raise his game.

I cannot wait to see.

At the auditions this act blindfolded himself and cut a

pineapple off Howie's head. In judge cuts he shot an apple

off Heidi's head. Now it's the live shows, so Mel

b. And Simon, be afraid. Please do not try what you are

about to see at home. I mean that.

Serious. Here's Aaron crow.

Simon: Yes. It was about to go wrong.

Tyra: Oh my gosh. Howie, he knew you chose wrong.

Howie, he knew you chose wrong. Mel b, you buzzed.

Why did you buzz? Mel: I didn't see the ending.

I don't know quite what happened.

Heidi: His hand is fine. Mel: I adore you.

I love your presence, but for me it took too long.

The whole thing was too long. Tyra: I liked it.

Heidi, too long? Heidi: Aaron, I am a fan of

yours, and I did love you slicing the pineapple off Howie

and you shooting the apple off my head.

Tonight wasn't as thrilling. Mel: It was too long.

Heidi: I agree with me it was a little long.

The most thrilling thing is when you buzzed.

Tyra: Simon? Simon: I value my hand.

The fact that you buzzed him nearly put him off.

And you, Howie, if we had gone on your crash I would have a

hole in my hand, so thank you, Aaron, for saving me.

Mel: I was trying to save you.

Simon: Yeah. Mel: I was.

Howie: I think I was amazing. How did I --

Heidi: You were amazing. [ Cheers and applause ]

Howie: If they want to see me move on, they got to vote.

If you want to see me in the semifinals, vote for Howie.

Tyra: Good luck tonight, Aaron.

If you want Aaron to go through to the semi-finals, there's a

bunch of ways to vote. And new this year, you can vote

using your xfinity x1 voice remote.

Go make some dreams come true. Right now.

Announcer: Coming up -- Howie: I think you're going

to go really far. Mel: I absolutely adore you.

Heidi: I mean, there's kids flying all over the air.

It was absolutely incredible.

Tyra: This 20-year-old is all innocence and has never been

kissed. But I think he's going to have

all of you smooching your TV screens tonight.

Here's Joseph o'brien. I've always been a hopeless

romantic. All I ever wanted to do is

settle down with the right girl. I always wanted to meet someone

in a really cool romantic way. Like you see in a movie.

I think I just move too fast all the time.

That's probably why it hasn't happened yet.

I just love you -- well, that went well.

Okay. Love you.

Great. Awesome.

Do you want them? The start of high school was

tough with girls and friends. Lunchtime was the worst because

I would eat by myself all the time.

I used to eat like really fast just to not look alone.

But music was always there for me.

Music always lifts my spirits and gives me more confidence.

Whenever I play movie, I'm in this other world of art and

beauty, that I'm like transfixed by.

I never thought I'd be on "agt" let alone the live shows.

One of the biggest surprises in my life for sure.

original song? You wrote this song yourself?

Yes, I did. Mel: Who's it about if I may

ask. It's about a girl back home

that I had a crush on at some point.

Mel: Are you together? I wish.

Simon: What's her name. Mel: Don't make him say the

name. Tyra: Totally say the name.

Say the name is. Her name is Brianna.

Mel: Hopefully she hears this song because the lyrics were

flawless. I was tearing up a little bit.

I don't know what's going on tonight.

Very good. Thank you.

Tyra: Heidi? Heidi: It was sweet.

It didn't knock me out of my seat, but it was sweet.

Thank you. Mel: It was about love.

I want somebody to write a song like that about me.

Tyra: Simon. Simon: Joseph, I like you.

You're probably going to hook up now with Brianna, so that's the

good news. The not so good news is I

personally didn't love the song. Maybe it's one of those songs

you have to hear two or three times --

[ booing ] Simon: Oh, shut up.

Mel: It's a beautiful love song.

Simon: You stuck to what you wanted to do and I applaud you

for that, but I'm not sure that performance is going to get you

through. Thank you.

Tyra: What do you think, Howie?

Howie: I'm agreeing with Simon.

It's about the dynamics. This show from the beginning has

been through the roof. Hopefully it works for Brianna,

but you have a giant doily, any way it doesn't matter.

Let's move on. Tyra: Good luck tonight,

Joseph. Whether it's Joseph or all the

other girls hitting you up on social media.

He needs your votes. Your votes decide who comes back

in the semi-finals, so make sure your favorites get through.

You can call, you can get online, you can use the official

there is literally no way to describe him.

He's hans. Next.

Next. Let me see that one more time.

No. Next.

My regular dancers could not be here, so today I'm holding an

open call audition. Do you think this is good enough

for Simon Cowell? I don't.

These are the live shows I need the best talents in America, and

this is what's shown up today. I need the Vegas headlining

show. You got me?

This isn't a game anymore. This is for a million dollars.

I just want to make this the most spectacular thing America

has ever seen. Dolby theatre.

So tonight I need to make this perfect.

We're going to start wide, zoom. It's all about the show.

It's not about me. Follow me.

Follow me. Follow me.

Never cut to the judges, nobody's interested.

Heidi, what do you feel about your hometown hero?

Heidi: Mel, did Elton John and you have a baby and didn't

tell me? I finally woke up again

[ Heidi speaking in German ] I think you're entertaining and

fun to watch you. Tyra: I have no idea what you

said. Let me translate.

Heidi was saying, she cannot tell who of us is the super

model here. We could be sisters.

Tyra: Twins, honey. Simon.

Simon: Amazingly like watching a horror movie that you

shouldn't enjoy it you do. That's how I feel.

For some reason I loved it. Simon, Simon.

Simon: Yes, darling. I promise you, I promise you

I perform it on our wedding night.

Tyra: Oh my gosh. Howie.

Howie: Oh my god, you were saying -- I think of Heidi Klum

if liberachi had a son that's who this would be.

That's his real piano, I'm not joking.

Howie: Anyway, this is my favorite act so far tonight

hans-down. Tyra: Mel b.

Mel: Can I say hands down for the song choice, spice up your

life. I was saying to Howie, what song

is it? At spice girls we write our own

material, I didn't recognize our own song but you killed it.

Yes, you did. I love you.

Tyra: So this is his chance. Your chance to put hans in the

semifinals. If you want to use the "agt"

app, download it from the app store or Google play.

Right after the break, your minds are gonna be blown by an

incredible alternative-reality, parallel universe, dance crew.

And later, the singing dad of six, Michael ketterer gets his

shot at the semi finals. Keep it "agt."

Tyra: This is the last chance for any act

to get to the semi-finals. Only seven will go through and

we'll find out who's made it on the results show tomorrow night.

And we'll have the cast of "beautiful" the incredible

Broadway show about Carol king. That's 8:00/7:00 central

tomorrow. Make sure you're watching.

Okay, back to tonight. "Agt" really does change the

lives of our champions. But for this dance crew, giving

something back is just as important as winning.

It's udi dance. Dance brought us together and

saved us. We grew up in Siberia.

The Russian government had fallen.

There was drugs and crime and really few opportunities.

I grew up in the orphanage and I was all alone.

But I found dance. And dance gave me my family.

Together we started a dance school for children like us.

We wanted to show other children the light.

We wanted to give them opportunity.

We believe these children can change the world.

Seeing our students succeed means everything to us.

"America's got talent" is our chance to show them that

anything is possible. To be here, it's unbelievable.

But we know we have to step up even more.

This is our chance. And we are going to take it.

Simon: Guys, thank you so much.

You want my honest opinion? This wasn't as good as your

first audition. I really mean that.

You have to remember, this show isn't just about the million

dollars, it's about going to Vegas.

I've seen acts do it better. If you are to go through to the

next round you have to step things up.

I didn't love it, I'm sorry. Tyra: Howie?

Howie: I love games and video games you had me at the video

games. Where do I collect coupons?

Because I won that one. I thought it was innovative.

I don't necessarily agree with Simon on that.

Tyra: Mel be? Mel: I'm confused because I

love what you do. I love the part where you were

spinning in the middle and things were coming off you.

That was my favorite part and the a-ha song.

Those are the only two things I liked.

I have to agree with Simon. But I do love you.

Tyra: Heidi? Heidi: I think the arcade

video game idea was great but the execution wasn't maybe as

great as the idea. I agree with Simon as well.

I liked it better before on previous --

Tyra: Okay. So they're saying that you were

stronger before. What do you want to say to

everyone at home so they vote for you so you can get better.

Thank you so much. We're happy to stay here.

Thank you. Tyra: So good luck to them.

You have a lot of votes you can use tonight.

You can vote up to ten times for each act, with each of our

voting methods. You really can make a

difference. So please, vote.

Announcer: Coming up -- Heidi: I mean, wow, I love

it. Mel: That is magic.

Thank you. Mel: And I believe in magic.

Simon: The real greats, they're just amazing, bloody,

Tyra: In a few weeks, one of our acts is gonna win

$1 million. Now I want you to close your

eyes and I want you to imagine yourself doing just that.

It can happen. We'll be auditioning for next

season all across the country really soon.

Go to agtauditions. Com to submit a video online and to find out

everything you need to know. Because we want to see what you

can do, baby. Now, acts perform for all kinds

of reasons, but this singer has the absolute best possible

motivation. She's Christina Wells.

My biggest inspiration definitely is my mother.

When I was about 3 1/2, my father was killed in a car

accident, and all of a sudden my mom had two little girls to take

care of by herself. We didn't have a lot of money.

We were on food stamps. We had to learn how to

survive. I tried to make it so that you

didn't feel how tough things were.

She was worried, I'm sure, about bills and keeping the

lights on. But she just didn't show it.

We danced and we laughed and we had a great time.

That spoke of her love more than any words ever could.

You did a great job. Thank you.

I'm glad you feel like that. There were times when the

rest of the world didn't believe in me.

There were times I didn't believe in myself.

But my mom has always believed in me.

I'm very proud of you. Thank you, mama.

Being here at "America's got talent," this is the closest

I've ever been to making my life-long dream come true.

I want to be a singer. I want to say, I did it mama.

Everyone is on their feet. Do you see this?

Do you see what you just did? Howie?

Howie: I can't believe there's going to be more show

tonight. That was like a grand finale,

that's the way to leave them -- you know you said in the package

before you didn't believe in yourself and sometimes it was

only your mother who believed in you.

I think I'm speaking for an entire country, I think we all

believe in you now. Tyra: Mel b?

Mel: Where do I start? My gosh, I adore you.

I love you, your voice is sensational.

Your rage is massive. You are incredible.

You made me cry. I never heard that song before

but I understood every single lir

Lyric because you sang it from your heart.

Tyra: Heidi. Heidi: You have changed so

much since the first time we met.

That's not your voice. Your voice has always been

there. But your confidence.

Your confidence needed to catch up and it finally did.

Thank you, Heidi. Tyra: Simon.

Simon: Tonight you are the diva I've always believed you

are. I mean that as the biggest

compliment. You owned the stage, you owned

the song. You put everyone -- anyone's who

ever put you down, which we spoke about before, after that

they can you know what. Mel: Exactly.

Simon: Because that's what this show is all about, is

people like you being given an opportunity.

I think there's going to be a lot of Broadway producers

watching this show tonight thinking I want to audition you.

I do. Tyra: So I see someone that

means everything to you more than anyone in the world.

Mama in the audience. What do you want to tell her

after this amazing performance and feedback you got?

What do you want to tell mommy right now?

Momma, you worked so hard for us when we were little girls.

She's my white mama. It was a struggle in the '70s in

the south to have mixed children, so you showed me what

grace and dignity looked like. Today I hope I made you proud.

Thank you for being here and believing in me.

I love you mama. Tyra: You spoke to so many

kids, mixed kids. All right.

This is for a spot in the semi-finals.

There's a bunch of ways to vote and new this year, you can vote

using your xfinity x1 voice remote.

Go make some dreams come true. Hi, mama!

Announcer: Coming up -- Howie: Wow!

Tyra: This is so crazy. You know what I have to do.

Heidi: I am just blown away. Simon: For me it's about

being real. Tyra: At the auditions, it

can be really difficult trying to decide who to hit the golden

buzzer for. But as soon as I saw this act,

it was a done deal. And guess what --

their audition is now the most viewed online in "agt" history

with over 320 million views. I got the eyes --

here's my golden buzzer, zurcaroh.

zurcaroh is a family.

When people watch our performance.

They can feel that we are connected with each other.

Every member in the group is important.

This makes our group special. But if someone is missing, we

are lost. Since our last performance, two

gymnasts in our group lost their mother.

For them, it was a hard moment. But we are family, and we will

always support each other. She knew how much they loved

being zurcaroh. So tonight, to have the entire

group together on that stage, I know she would be really proud.

We are stronger when we are together.

Tonight we will be united and we will give the performance of our

life.

Tyra: Whoa. There's my guys and girls.

There's my angels and Adams and eves.

Mel be? Mel: Oh my gosh.

First of all, Tyra, this is your golden buzzer.

Tyra: Yes, darling. Mel: Well done to you.

How old are you three? Are you like 7 years old.

Tyra: How old are you? 11.

8. 10.

Tyra: Babies. And more babies over there.

Mel: Can I say it was breathtaking.

I love the music. I love the outfits.

Tyra: Story line, too, Mel. Mel: I got the story line.

Tyra: Everyone give Mel an applause, she got the story

line. Heidi?

Heidi: If there was an act ready for Las Vegas, it's you

guys. You are perfect from the

costumes to the makeup, the masks, the dancing, the whole

thing and the little girls. All the kids, amazing.

My goose bumps just won't go down they're still up.

Simon: True. Tyra: Simon.

Simon: Yeah, I didn't like it.

I loved it! Heidi: He loved it.

Simon: We don't have much time.

I'm going to say, this is one of the best live performances I

have ever seen on an "America's got talent."

Tyra: Howie? Howie: I agree.

They put dance to a whole new level.

You know how they say less is more, you proved them wrong.

More is more. You had acrobatics, dancing, and

a male Victoria's secret model that's amazing zbliets Heidi,

he's the first male angel. How do you feel about all the

love. They're saying you're ready for

Las Vegas. We're blessed for everything

we have. We don't know when we're going

to leave the competition with be but our heart is full.

Thank you for everything. Tyra: You said you don't know

when you're going to leave, I'll fix that for you, you're not

going to leave. Good luck to my people,

zurcaroh. Let's keep it going.

Up next is a magician, and at the auditions, Simon wasn't easy

on him at all. But he's made it here and he's

looking to show you what he can do.

He's Rob lake. This "agt" journey has been

exhausting and exciting and just out of this world.

When I first walked on the stage, it was really a sense of

vulnerability and pressure. Simon said he loves the magic

but has an issue with the thee at

theeatrics of it. And at judge cuts the same thing

happened. Simon: Maybe that's why you

haven't been given the break yet.

It's all a bit corny. It feels personal when

someone makes a comment like that.

Because everything in this is me.

I think Simon is wrong. Magic has to have the drama,

it's part of the illusion. I'm really at a loss for what is

Simon wanting? We have to get this right.

Tonight I'm pulling out all the stops.

I'm hoping Simon will admit he's wrong, because when I go on

stage, I want to win. I'm in this to win.

Wow. Good runway walk, girls.

He's just appearing and reappearing all over this place,

Simon. Thank you.

Tyra: Tiesimon. Simon: I feel I have kind of

helped you get to this place. Constructive, supportive, fair

play, I think you put on a great show on a live show.

It was a bit corny at times but maybe that's who you are.

I have no idea how you flew from there --

Tyra: Simon! Simon, come on!

Simon: I'm being nice. Tyra: That's nice saying it's

corny and that's who you are. Simon: I'm saying it in a

complimentary way. Mel: It takes a corny one to

know a corny one. Tyra: Heidi?

Heidi: I loved it. It was like you were there and

there. It's like you were two of you.

Like you have a twin. I don't.

I have one sister, she's here tonight and she hates magic.

Heidi: I love it, it was so much things going on at the same

time, I love it. Otherwise I get bored.

Howie: I love the magic, the show, the cheesiness was a bit

many much for me. It was the Ada and the dancing.

It looked very '80s to me. Tyra: Maybe that was the

style, I'm very 1940s tonight. Howie: It's not cheese

superintendent -- cheesy.

Mel: I didn't think it was cheesy enough.

Are you sure you don't have a twin?

I don't. Mel: That was magic.

Pure magic. Tyra: Every vote counts get

A.M. eastern time. After the break, Simon's golden

Tyra: Our last act tonight is also our last golden buzzer of

this season. Big daddy Simon's golden buzzer.

Why did you pick him? Simon: I picked him

because -- Mel: Because I told you to

pick him. Simon: He's actually just a

great human being and a great singer and I'm thrilled -- I'm

so excited right now. I really, really am.

Tyra: Okay, here's Michael ketterer.

My dad -- before I met my dad it was very hard.

We used to imagine parents. How come?

It was really hard.

I was living on the streets. I know your favorite part is

when we put the chocolate chips in.

Whenever my dad's around me, I always feel like I'm really

safe. Sometimes you got to make a

mess to make something really good.

He's a super fun dad. Doctors said he's not going

to have a relationship with anybody.

Hi, daddy. Look at him now.

We've got cookies. My family is why I'm here.

When you're surviving you can't dream.

My dad shows me that dreams sometimes come true.

My dream is to get a good education.

My dream is to be a chef one day.

My dream is to be like my dad.

And I feel like I can do that. I think you're going to win

some tears in the audience. Simon?

Simon? This is your golden guy.

Simon: Come back to me in a minute.

Tyra: I'm not going to come back.

I know you're emotional and I want you to talk through it.

Talk through it. Simon: Michael, look -- oh,

gosh. Tyra: Let it out, Simon, it's

okay. Simon: As I dad I get -- I

couldn't -- I can't imagine what you've done and the fact that

you're on this show and you really need this and you're a

really, really special guy. There's something about you.

Tyra: Simon, that is one of the most beautiful moments I

have ever seen of you, that vulnerability and beauty.

That's what people don't know about Mr. Cowl, that he's a big,

soft papa. Mel b. Why are you writing?

Mel: I'm doodling so I don't cry too much.

To do what you've done, taking on, adopting all these kids,

giving them life and your voice sings such truth and honesty.

You don't have the best voice but what you do is you're

captivating and you're honest, I'm not going to try, I already

cried. I cried at the first word you

said. Tyra: Heidi?

Heidi: When you sing, you sing with so much heart.

On a side note, we need more men like you.

Mel: Yes, please! Tyra: Howie?

Howie: More humans like you. You deserve to be here.

This is not a sob story, this is a happy story.

People should be inspired by you.

Tyra: So Michael, you made Simon Cowell cry on national,

live television. What does that feel like?

I mean, I know I think he gets it, you know, these are my

babies and I have given my entire life to this, and I

couldn't have done it without my wife back there.

She's one of my greatest supports.

And -- I don't know what else to say.

Tyra: I'll say it for you. You have to vote.

Seven acts are going through, five are going to be really sad.

Tomorrow we have the results,
