"Menudo has no talent"— America's Got Talent season 19 fans divided by boyband's Quarterfinals performance

America's Got Talent season 19 aired part 3 of the Quarterfinals this week on Tuesday, August 27, 2024. The segment saw 11 contestants perform live to impress America enough to earn enough votes to be one of two performers to make it to the semi-finals.

One such act was Menudo, a boyband who sang an original song, Party en California. The performance divided the judges as Heidi Klum praised the band while Howie, Sofia, and Simon were not entirely impressed. Fans of the show took to social media to react to the segment and echo the three judges' sentiments. One person wrote on X:

"@AGT Sofia must have heard someone else say "What a way to open the show" b/c she says that every week. Menudo has no talent, just be honest."

"#AGT Menudo sucks and, as usual, the female judges coddle them and say they are good. Thankfully, Howie and Simon tell the truth. These kids are nothing special. I've seen much better children singing acts on the show that deserve to go far. Menudo, is one of them," a fan commented.

"Why is Menudo even on AGT? They should be on the Spanish version of The Voice or something. #AGT," a tweet read.

Some America's Got Talent season 19 praised the boyband:

"That was an awesome performance by menudo, They sounded amazing this week during the quarterfinals #AGT," a person wrote.

"That was horrible, New Menudo. The only judge that gave a decent review was Heidi, sorry #AGT but some of the acts that have gone through have been BAD!!!," a fan commented.

"Menudo has a lot of great energy! I thought that they stepped up from their audition. They do have a bright future ahead of them! #AGT," a tweet read.

America's Got Talent season 19 fans further said:

"This was garbage, should have stayed home little kids," a person wrote.

"Really should bring back the second auditions to weed acts out... you say yes to so many acts and should have a second chance," a fan commented.

America's Got Talent season 19 Quarterfinals 3: Menudo's performance explored

America's Got Talent season 19 episode 13 saw Menudo perform their original song, Party en California for the judges and the live audience. While the audience cheered for the boyband, the judges were not impressed.

Howie Mandel was the first AGT judge to give the musical group his feedback and said that he had "good news" for them. He stated it was "a good thing" that the public had to vote for their future on America's Got Talent.

"And also more good news, I don't get to vote. I felt like I was on a Saturday morning kids' show on Telemundo," Howie said.

The studio audience booed Howie, while Sofia added there was nothing wrong with kids' shows on Telemundo. Heidi Klum told the group that the season 19 contestants "brought the party to AGT." She called them the "perfect little boy band."

She complimented their looks, and songs, and said they had fans, referring to the "screaming" studio audience. Sofia Vergara told the contestants she thought it was the "perfect way" to open the show. She added that the America's Got Talent season 19 contestants were "so much better" than during their audition round.

"You guys are a lot of fun. I can tell that you guys really really love what you're doing. The voices are still not the best voices in the world but the whole thing that is going on, I really like it," she added.

Simon Cowell asked the boyband what they thought about their performance. In response, a member of the musical group asked the audience what they thought about the performance and the audience cheered.

Fans of the show took to social media to react to Menudo's performance and were divided in their opinion. Tune in on Wednesday, August 28, 2024, to see whether the boyband makes it to America's Got Talent season 19's semi-finals.
