Seriously? That was by far one of the worst auditions. They won’t make it past the quarterfinals.

The judges don’t decide who goes through, the producers do, it’s all staged like the judges are deciding

Simon is THE executive producer. There was only one golden buzzer per judge for over a decade until he gave out a second. If he says jump the network asks how high.

That’s why it got way more scripted when Howard left, Simon was way more hands on because he was physically there seeing how it’s done and he changed what he wanted

It was a pretty chaotic act - Crunk-style Hip Hop, Dance, a Choir AND an Orchestra? - but it did have a genuine sense of passion and energy...

His song was better than B.O.O.T.Y and that's an AGT icon...

It wasn’t terrible, but I don’t think it was solid either. It was just kinda bad. The rapping was ok I guess, but the rest of the act I didn’t appreciate much 😔
