America's Got Talent season 19 aired the final night of the Quarterfinals on Tuesday, September 3, 2024. After three rounds of live shows, only 11 acts remained. The latest episode saw the contestants battle it out for the last four spots remaining in the competition. Only one would advance straight to the Finals after getting the Live Show Golden Buzzer from one of the judges.
Despite a setback during their performance, aerial duo Sebastian and Sonia got judge Simon Cowell's Golden Buzzer. The other acts left a lasting impression on the judges, even though they could not earn the golden ticket to the finale. One such act was the Australian dance crew Brent Street.
As one of Howie Mandel's Golden Buzzer acts from the auditions, Brent Street wowed the judges and the audience with their unique and challenging choreography. They upped their performance by introducing an element of danger in their routine. Although Simon was tempted, he refrained from giving them his Golden Buzzer.
America's Got Talent fans took to X to applaud the dance crew's performance.

What did America's Got Talent judges say about Brent Street's Quarterfinals performance?
Brent Street chose singer-songwriter Billie Eilish's song "You Should See Me In a Crown" for their Quarterfinals performance. Their choreography involved dancing on small tables, which the 31-member dance crew also used as props. It added an element of danger to their routine and enhanced the viewers' experience.
The audience cheered and applauded as Brent Street presented gravity-defying moves on stage. Their performance received a standing ovation from Howie Mandel and Heidi Klum.
"You guys are one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my whole life," Howie said.
He complimented their clean execution, their prop usage, and how they shadowed each other. He was certain Simon would hit the Golden Buzzer for them. Heidi chimed in and said:
"I would push the Golden Buzzer for you right now. You were so amazing. I love the choreography. It was so different. You really think outside of the box."
The America's Got Talent judge commended Brent Street for finding "new ways to dance." Sofia Vergara agreed with Heidi's remarks. She stated they were "not a regular dance group." She was also thrilled to experience the "little bit of danger" in their act.
However, Simon differed. He thought the "second half was amazing," but was not so impressed by the first half. He claimed it felt "too artsy" and a "little bit slow." Despite his negative review, the America's Got Talent judge complimented Brent Street's creativity and unique dance style.
America's Got Talent season 19 will announce the results of Quarterfinals 4 on Wednesday, September 4, 2024.
