Sofia Vergara Faces Boos on AGT
16 Sep
Summary
- Sofia Vergara was booed by the audience for her comments.
- A contestant's act prompted mixed reactions from judges and the crowd.
- Six out of twelve acts will advance to the AGT finals.

Sofia Vergara experienced audience disapproval on a recent episode of America's Got Talent when she voiced skepticism about a contestant's place in the semifinals. While fellow judge Howie Mandel highlighted the joy the act brought to Vergara, she admitted to sharing the audience's sentiment that certain performances might not align with the show's typical caliber.
The audience's reaction was audible boos when Vergara questioned the contestant's presence. Judge Mel B also provided a critique, comparing the act to Peter Sellers but suggesting room for improvement and a potentially better song choice.
The judges frequently noted the difficult decisions facing the audience. Out of twelve competing acts, only six will progress to the finals. These finalists will join four other acts who have already secured Golden Buzzers.
Voting for the current acts concluded on Wednesday at 7 a.m. ET/4 a.m. PT. The results were scheduled to be revealed on Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on NBC and available for streaming the following day on Peacock.
