Howie Mandel, Nick Cannon as amazing as the TALENT on AGT

Hey guys! We're up for yet another spectacular season of America's Got Talent. The judges, Piers Morgan, Sharon Osbourne, and Howie Mandel are the same, but the talent is greater than ever. Of course we've seen magicians, people drilling themselves with power tools, fire swallowers, jugglers, and dancers, but I feel like this season the spectacular acts outweigh the insane acts. Live from Houston and Minneapolis, the contestants blew us viewers and the judges away!

I loved watching The Silhouettes with their shadow show, Lys Agnes with her amazing rendition of, "Ave Maria", the shocking performance of the Sandou Trio, with the blonde girl doing high, acrobatic flips on a trampoline-like bar, a variety of breakdancers, including the most adorable 6 year old boy I've ever seen on the show, Tanner, who gave a shout out to his girlfriend Abby. In addition, who doesn't love a talking parrot? I know it sounds kind of cliche, but yes, two women communicated with parrots this season so far. Weird, that a parrot knows the sounds of different animals and also sings, "Old McDonald." Needless to say all these performers made it to Vegas for Round 2!

Hmm, now comes the insane acts. Who could forget the guy juggling 3 electric guns while standing in a basin of water? Well believe it or not, he may have come very close to dying onstage, but made it to Vegas. Another unforgettable act...settle down, class is in session with...Professor Splash! Yes, this 47 year old guy was amazing, yet crazy for jumping from 26 feet into a pool filled with a foot of water. I nearly had a heart attack watching this, I can't imagine what the audience was feeling. Nick Cannon joked saying he didn't want to get wet so chose to wear latex, then advised kids to not try Prof. Splash's stunt at home.  Miraculously, Splash came out of the water feeling, "fantastic" and promises to break the record on the show if he makes it to Round 2. What do you know? He's moving on to VEGAS!

Although each act was more exciting than the last, before the great performers came out onstage, Piers randomly grew a little impatient when Howie and Sharon were allowing what he called, "pathetic acts" to move forward. To the actors dressed as gnomes, "Those Funny Little People", Piers immediately left the judge's panel when they were voted through. As a joke, Howie says, "Because you can piss off Piers, I say yes." Then convinces Sharon to do the same. Backstage, Howie invites this group to Piers' dressing room to chill with him, haha! Later on, as the group is accompanied out, Howie closes Piers' door, pushes a vending machine in front of it, then knocks and tells him, "A few minutes til the next act, Piers" while laughing on camera, lol. Who doesn't love Howie Mandel?

Time to move on to the next city. Tune in next week for more updates. Thanks for following this, ciao!
