Publish date: 2024-09-22

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: A brand new episode of 'America's Got Talent: All-Stars' aired on February 20. The hour-long broadcast pitted the 11 finalists - including winners, finalists and memorable contestants - from various Got Talent franchises against each other for the coveted title and the top reward of $1 million.

The Detroit Youth Choir is among the top 11 finalists who took the stage tonight. The youth choir, led by artistic director Anthony White, put on a sensational performance and host Terry Crew's two-time Golden Buzzers are here to "win" this time. But the fans seem to be against them and were not very impressed with their performance. The competition is tough and they have to face former winner Kodi Lee again.

Do judges think Detroit Youth Choir deserves 2 golden buzzers?

The Detroit Youth Choir, a choral group from the Motor City, wowed viewers back in 2019 on Season 14 of 'America's Got Talent,' taking second place. And this time, too, they took the stage by storm with their performance.

They delivered a combination of singing, rapping and choreographed movements that were energetic and inspiring. And the chorus of the song was laced with the kind of uplifting message that has become a trademark of DYC. The judges were quite impressed with their powerful performance and Heidi Klum even praised their dance routine. "This is by far the best youth choir I have ever seen. I had the biggest smile on my face. It's not just your singing but also your dance routine, it's top-notch."

Howie Mandel thought the performance was really good and said, "First of all you deliver and just when you think you have seen everything, your solos come up." Simon Cowell also agreed with Heidi and said, "I was thinking where the pinnacle of entertainment was, and its Super Bowl. They should be booked to play in the Super Bowl."

Choir is not 'real talent'

While the Detroit Youth Choir's performance impressed the judges, the 'AGT' fans were not so moved. They didn't think "choir is real talent." Viewers took to Twitter to express their opinions. One fan said, "This has to be the last time we’re gonna see them right? #AGT #AGTAllStars." Another one tweeted, "The problem that I have with Detroit Youth Choir is they are too much school assemblies and not Vegas quality. I would have buzzed them multiple times! #AGTAllStars." One more said, "Just came home. Guess I didn't miss much cause DYC was first. #AGT #AGTAllStars."

Simon Cowell thought Detroit Youth Choir should be booked for the Super Bowl but fans don't think they have what it takes to perform there. One fan said, "Don’t think they usually try to book bad acts for that event #AGT #AGTAllStars." Another one tweeted, "#AGT #AGTAllStars I need this to be the last time I hear DYC perform... respectfully." One more fan added, "DO NOT RUIN THE SUPER BOWL YOU DUMB BRIT #AGT #AGTAllStars."
