AGT season 18 fans applaud Murmuration online

This week America's Got Talent saw 11 more acts take center stage as they performed live in front of the studio audience and the judges. Murmuration was one such group that took the stage and the group was also Howie Mandel's Golden Buzzer recipient.

Their act, which was led by Sadeck Berrabah used lights, drama, insane coordination, and a message. Their performance reminded fans of Mayyas, the winners of season 17.

Their performance was an improvisation of what they did during the audition by using their arms to elevate the dance routine. By using gloves, hats, lights, and more, they made their arm movements the highlight of their performances and received praise from judges and audience alike.

After the performance, Howie Mandel urged the live audience and viewers across the US to vote for Murmuration because they "have to be in the finals."

Simon Cowell noted that the group was in a "different league" and that their performance was "literally perfection" and Sofia Vergara said that their performance was "breathtaking." Meanwhile, Heidi Klum apologized for not giving them enough credit when they auditioned for AGT and noted that they were amazing.

Fans took to social media to echo the judges' thoughts and praised the AGT season 18 dance group. While some said that they waited the entire night to watch the performance, others called the group the "best act of the night."

Other acts that performed during AGT season 18 episode 14 included Chioma & The Atlanta Drum Academy, Ahren Belisle, Andrew Stanton, Erica Coffelt, Steel Panther, Three G, Ryland Petty, Alfie Andrew, Deni Kerr, and Sharpe Family Singers.
