What happened on America's Got Talent season 19 episode 15?
America's Got Talent season 19 episode 15 started with the Aussie dance group Brent Street, who took to the stage to showcase their talent. All thirty-one members in their group gave their best by using wheels to create a surprise element in their performance. After they wrapped up their act, Heidi shared that she wanted to press the Golden Buzzer but didn't have the power to do so.
Meanwhile, only Simon had the choice to press the buzzer and Howie tried to convince him to do that. However, Simon felt that Brent Street's speed was compromised towards the end, which impacted their overall performance.
One of the highlights of America's Got Talent season 19 episode 15 was Irish singer-songwriter Stephanie Rainey who performed her original song on the quarter-final stage. With her soulful voice and magical words, Stephanie expressed her feelings and her mom's struggle with cancer. This heartfelt performance made everyone emotional.
Judge Sophia said Stephanie's presence on stage felt "so personal." Howie mentioned that the contestant's songs were “powerful” but there was something missing on stage. Moreover, Simon shared that the production left out minor details but the overall singing was impressive enough to get her votes.
The one act that got the Golden Buzzer on America's Got Talent season 19 episode 15 was aerial duo Sebastián and Sonia. Due to Sonia's sudden injury, Sebastián performed solo on the stage. Host Terry told the judges and audience that during the duo's rehearsal, Sonis got injured and was advised to take rest. Despite this, Sebastián didn't back out and showed up to the AGT stage.
After Sebastián impressed the crowd as well as the judges with his incredible performance, Howie appreciated him for not giving up. Simon was moved by his dedication and how amazingly he performed solo. The AGT judge pressed the Golden Buzzer, sending the aerial duo to the finals.
