“Alesha, thank you for that Golden Buzzer,” says the leader of Silhouettes after “America’s Got Talent: The Champions” judge Alesha Dixon anointed them with the confetti shower during Monday’s episode. (Watch their NBC interview above.) The “grateful” shadow dance group originally appeared in the 2011 season of “Agt” when they came in second place to singer Landau Eugene Murphy Jr. Now Silhouettes has a shot at being the ultimate “Champions” as they’ve advanced all the way to the Finals thanks to new judge Alesha’s Golden Buzzer.

One of the Silhouettes dancers said the Golden Buzzer moment was “unreal.” As she explained, “The second [Alesha] stood up and reached for it, in my mind I’m just like, ‘No!’ That was never an outcome we expected. It was insane and to see everyone smiling, and the joy and the happiness,...

If you had told us before this season of “America’s Got Talent: The Champions” began that Voices of Service wouldn’t make the finale we’d have called you crazy. Following their first performance of the new season on the January 27 episode we thought they deserved a Golden Buzzer. So when new judge Alesha Dixon didn’t use it we thought well surely the superfans would vote them through.

Nope!

Unfortunately they fell into the bottom six and when pitted against Strauss Serpent and Emil Rengle they came up short.

In the second group of low scorers, Connie Talbot was set against rap group Bars and Melody and acrobats Sandou Trio Russian Bar. Connie was six when she competed on the first series of “Britain’s Got Talent” in 2007. On “The Champions” she returned as a 19-year-old and delivered a gorgeous piano ballad that she wrote herself, proving that her voice...

Can Simon Cowell and Howie Mandel please be the next two judges booted from America’s Got Talent? After Monday’s episode of The Champions, which set the stage for next week’s semifinals, I’m not sure either one of them knows the meaning of the word anymore.

My frustration — which I imagine will be shared by many — comes from the final elimination of the night, the dreaded “judges’ choice.” This week, the panel’s options included Brian King Joseph, an exceptional violinist whose neuropathy will someday leave him paralyzed; Christian and Percy, a human-dog act that exemplifies strength, dedication and companionship; and JJ Pantano,...
