We do know one of those acts taking the stage tonight is Ashford Sanders, as NBC gave us a sneak peek at his audition for tonight. He definitely has a strong voice, but will it be worthy of a Golden Buzzer? We find out tonight, so follow along with our live recap below!

Yukuta
He is from Japan and tells Terry he is here to see Simon. He is a garbage collector, but he says he is here for his love of Simon and skincare. He proceeds to go get some drawing, which is Simon’s face. It’s a mess.
Judges’ Feedback: Mel B said you came all the way from Japan to do that. Howie said it’s comedy, and he’s giving him a yes. Sofia and Simon did one too, so he is moving forward.
Cameron Logsdon
He is from Omaha, Nebraska. Cameron works as a college teacher. He has a son and prioritized him and taking care of him, so now he’s in college, and he’s here at “AGT.” Cameron said the judges might need a break from judging, so he brought resumes with him of celebrities that might be good replacements or fill-ins for them. The judges can ask Cameron questions for the celebrities, and he will answer them on their behalf. Cameron is an impressionist, as we hear him do Jason Statham and then Mark Wahlberg, which is spot-on! We also have Jennifer Coolidge, Will Smith, and The Rock. Some are good, and others are outstanding!
Judges’ Feedback: Sofia said he is brilliant. Mel B said she wished he had made a story and not gotten Simon involved. Howie said he is great, and he loved it. Simon said it was really original and a great idea.
Results: Mel B is a no again, but the other judges are yes, and he is moving on!
Carolina Mic
He is a systems architect, so he handles the tech meetings for his company. Carolina Mic went viral on TikTok, but the judges aren’t impressed with his song or singing. He talks about having $1 million. The audience loved him, but Howie, Sofia, and Simon hit the “X” for him.
Judges’ Feedback: Simon said that after 20 seconds, he had enough. Mel B said they have too many millions, so she identifies with him. She gave him a yes, but Carolina is headed home.
Viola Panik & Mister Punch
She is from Venezuela, so Sofia is loving her already. She starts dancing, but then another guy and muppets come out. They are removing layers of clothes, as they get “X’s” from Simon and Mel B.
Judges’ Feedback: Sofia said that was one of the weirdest things she’s ever seen, and they see a lot of weird stuff on that stage. Sofia was a yes, but the others are a no, and they are eliminated.
Naimana & Daniele
He said he fell in love with her once he heard her voice. They leave the stage and come back as muppets. She is “riding” a horse. They proceed to sing opera. They are ventriloquists, but it’s just so awkward to watch. The audience seems to love them, though on “AGT” 2026.
Judges’ Feedback: Sofia said that was surprising. Howie said it’s something they’ve never seen before, and he loved it. Mel B is confused, but they have really good voices. She doesn’t get it. Simon said he gets it. He thinks they’re really talented.
Results: Mel B is a no, but the other three “America’s Got Talent” judges are a yes, and they are moving forward.
Nicole Tissington
She said she has a talent, and she eats crazy things. She said she eats raw chicken and brings out some raw chicken. Nicole ends up eating the whole chicken and Styrofoam. She then talks about eating a shoe, but reveals it’s cake!
Judges’ Feedback: The judges were not impressed with her for the show, so she is eliminated on “America’s Got Talent” 2026.
Butter & Grit on ‘America’s Got Talent’
They said making it on the show would be life-changing for them. They met at a gig and became instant friends a couple of years ago. Butter & Grit is singing an original song tonight. I do enjoy them, and they have that likable quality to them. The song is decent, but they sound good on it.
Judges’ Feedback: Mel B said she wants to be friends with them. They brought the fun, and she loved it. Howie said they are really good, and this is real Americana. Simon said it sounded like a popular restaurant commercial. Sofia said they are super likable. The song does sound like a commercial, but it was fun.
Results: It’s four yeses from the judges, so they are going to the next round!
Veronika Goroshkova on ‘America’s Got Talent’
She moved to America from Ukraine. She wanted to be on the show, and she drove to Los Angeles with her mother. Veronika said she does the aerial pole and thinks she can win the $1 million with this act. She proceeds to dance and twirl on the pole, which goes all over the place. Veronika is flying around the stage, and it’s actually very dangerous since there is no safety net under her.
Judges’ Feedback: Simon said that it felt like a gold-medal performance in every way. It was so difficult, and loved where she put the stage. It was so hard and dangerous. That was perfection. Sofia said she was really into it, but we were at a weird angle to look at it. She said we have seen a lot of acts like this. She has this weird feeling as she proceeds to hit the Golden Buzzer for Veronika. That means she is headed straight to the live shows.
Elsie
She said music is her first love. She was always writing songs, and her husband said they were really good. He’s at home watching the kids, and she is out here chasing her dreams on “America’s Got Talent” Season 21. The song has a catchy beat to it. It definitely draws you in, and she sounds good. She has a strong voice.
Judges’ Feedback: Mel B said she is clearly an amazing singer, but she should have done a different song. Howie said that from the moment she walked out, he thought this was a star, but the song or the tracking was distracting. He doesn’t know who she is. Sofia said she didn’t love the song, but she loved her. Simon said she has everything to make it, but she overdid it today. She has star potential.
Results: Howie is a no, but the other three judges are a yes, and she is moving on to the next round.
Joel M
He is from Northern Ireland and excited to see Simon. There is a box hanging from the ceiling, which Joel said one of the judges is going to want later on. He takes Simon’s wallet and Howie’s glasses and phone and does some tricks. Joel then heads backstage and grabs some belongings from the judges’ dressing rooms. He grabs a picture of Sofia’s dog and a bracelet from Mel B. He then puts them and Howie’s phone into a bag, smashes it with a hammer, and throws it in the trash! Joel goes back to the stage and grabs that box hanging from the ceiling. He uses the key from Simon’s wallet to unlock the box. Howie’s phone is inside the box, Sofia’s picture frame was inside her seat cushion, and inside Mel B’s buzzer was her necklace!
Judges’ Feedback: Mel B said she doesn’t know how he did it, but she loved it. Sofia said the magic was good and very exciting. Howie said he’s charming and has a good look, but it was too long. Simon said that it did take a long time and he can’t do that on a live show.
Results: Howie is a no for being too slow. However, the other judges vote him a yes, and Joel is moving on to the next round.
Lachlan Patterson on ‘America’s Got Talent’
We got a quick look at this comedian. I remember him from “Last Comic Standing” back in the day. I enjoyed him then, and I enjoy him now.
Judges’ Feedback: Mel B said she was smiling and laughing. She enjoyed it and wanted it to go on for longer. Howie said leave them wanting more.
Results: The judges are all a yes, so he is moving on.
Jesse Joe
He is a third-generation oilfield worker from West Texas. He is a singer, and his band is called The 96ers, and they all work in the oilfield. They are singing an original song, even though they’ve only been performing together for a few months. They definitely have an appeal about them. Is the singing the best? I am not sure, but he has a strong stage presence. The band is working on that stage too, but his vocals just aren’t over-the-top amazing.
Judges’ Feedback: Howie said when people do what they do, and sing what they do. He is authentic. Mel B said he was so out of tune. Sofia said they are something very interesting going on. Simon said he liked the song a lot, but there were some issues with the lead vocals.
Results: Mel B is a no, but Simon saved them. He said they need work, but he is the third yes vote, and they are moving on.
Alseny Sylla
He said he just got his U.S. citizenship. He is an acrobat and is working, flipping, and twisting all over the stage and audience. It was a high-energy performance.
Judges’ Feedback: Simon said that it was a great audition. So much energy, and one of the most committed contestants we’ve had this year. They seemed to love him, but never said if he’s moving on or not.
Elektro Dads
They are from Gilbert, Arizona. They’ve been best friends for over two decades. The guys have been dancing together since they were twins. They have 10 kids among them, and their kids asked them to do “America’s Got Talent.” They dance to different songs, but pretend to video chat with their kids during the performance. It ends with the kids telling Simon to be nice to their dads. The guys can dance, and it was a good audition.
Judges’ Feedback: Mel B said it was surprisingly really good, and at the same time, it was really cute. They can dance. Howie said they can really dance, and they’re really likable, but there was nothing where you’d say wow, you have to come in here and see this. Sofia said people are going to love them. Simon said it did make them laugh when they first started dancing. They were stiff, but it got better as they went on.
Results: Howie is a no, but the other judges say yes, and they are moving on to the next round!
Ashford Sanders
He owns a soul food restaurant in Atlanta, but he brings music to that restaurant. He never thought he would be here. Ashford is from a small town in Mississippi. He takes on “What Was I Made For?” by Billie Eilish and totally makes it his own. His voice is spectacular. He has such control of his voice and gives some amazing runs.
Judges’ Feedback: Mel B said he is everything and more. Howie said his voice is like a warm blanket. It was beautiful. Sofia said she could listen to him forever. Simon said he is a gifted, brilliant singer, no question.
Results: It’s four yes votes for Ashford, as he is headed to the next round!
