This Otherworldly “AGT” Dance Had The Judges Fighting Over The Golden Buzzer

The competition in this season of AGT is heating up during the season 19 quarterfinals. In a new twist this year, each judge has a Live Golden Buzzer they can bestow on one act they deem worthy of heading straight to the finals.
Sofia Verga was last week’s Live Gold Buzzer holder and gave it to the Hakuna Matata Acrobats. On last night’s show, it was judge Howie Mandel’s turn to hand out the prize, but something unprecedented happened instead.

Their performance, a mixture of dance and acrobatics, blew the judges away. And while it wasn’t Simon Cowell’s turn to press the Golden Buzzer, he did it anyway.

Terry Crews asked Simon what he thought of the performance and the judge said, “I am just about to get myself fired,” before standing up and slamming the Golden Buzzer in front of Howie.

Poor Howie yelled, “I feel like I’ve been abused!”

But it appeared the pair were both trying to hit the buzzer, and Terry said Howie actually beat Simon to it.

A cheerful Simon admitted, “I just couldn’t help myself!”

The celebration was incredible with the members of Airfootworks overwhelmed with excitement as Simon and Howie both joined them on the stage.

Fans of Airfootworks loved the moment and felt the group was more than deserving of their Golden Buzzer.

One fan wrote on AGT’s YouTube channel, “The shapes being in sync with the dancing in the background was such a nice touch to their performance, deserved golden buzzer.”

“They definitely deserved that Golden Buzzer, because that was amazing! One of the coolest things I’ve ever seen in any of these shows!” Someone else cheered.

This fan made a big prediction, “Best act of the night by far. They could win it all.”
