How to vote for your favorite contestant on America's Got Talent Season 17? Voting rules explained ahead of show's premiere

Viewers, it is time to vote for your favorite contestant on Season 17 of America's Got Talent. This time, the reality talent competition will witness contestants showcase their skillsets that are at par with what's deemed the greatest acts the show has ever seen.

The hit series was renewed for the seventeenth season, owing to its success in its previous installments. It has been a fan favorite for a long time. The television network will broadcast America's Got Talent every Tuesday at 8.00 PM ET.

The premiere episode will be a two-hour extravaganza. Host Terry Crews will introduce some of the most talented contestants who will grace the stage with their magic, music, and other incredible talents to impress celebrity judges Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Sofia Vergara, and Heidi Klum.

Speaking about the essence of the competition, Klum told Access Hollywood:

"I always call it a 'rollercoaster of emotions,' because a person comes and they're singing. The next is an aerialist. The next one is a contortionist or a comedian. Everyone has a story to tell because they're real people. They're not actors. This is not a movie. This is real life. It's always fun to hear the stories...it never gets boring."
