Judges’ Comments:
Heidi Klum gave Cristina Rae a standing ovation for her semifinal performance. She told Cristina that they started this journey together and feels like they have a bond. “I’m keeping my fingers, my toes, everything crossed, that we’re going to end this journey together next week at the finale. I wish this so very much for you.”
Howie Mandel thinks that in the category of singing, Cristina is the one to beat. “I think that your voice is pure. I think it’s powerful, I think it’s entertaining. Maybe that’s the PPE that we have a shortage of these days…You’re wonderful and I loved it and I think America will, too.”
Sofia Vergara said, “I think tonight, you nailed it more than any other night. It was perfection, I had goosebumps.” Sofia also noted that Cristina looked stunning in her rose-colored outfit and with her eyes with the glitter.
America’s Got Talent (AGT) Season 15 premiered in the United States on May 26, 2020, on NBC. For this season, AGT judges are Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, returning Heidi Klum, and newcomer Sofia Vergara.
This season is most notable for its production being affected by the COVID-19 or coronavirus pandemic in 2020, which impacted audition sessions. The program initially moved to filming without an audience present at auditions, before ultimately suspending production. Auditions were later allowed to continue, but via online applications from those quarantined in their homes.
The production staff decided to push through with the broadcast as planned and premiere on May 26.
Production resumed the week of June 22, 2020, filming on a film backlot in Simi Valley, decorated to look like a drive-in movie theater. Everyone, including the judges and host Terry Crews, wore masks when not on camera. The Judge Cuts round was reduced from four episodes to one, and the acts were reduced from 72 to 60. The live shows will feature 44 acts over four weeks, compared to 36 acts appearing over three weeks last season.
Producers decided to include a virtual audience for the Live Shows and Universal Studios Hollywood was chosen as the venue for performances to take place.
Prior to the first quarter-final’s live broadcast, Cowell became involved in an electric bike accident that left him with a severe back injury. Cowell had surgery to repair the damage, and the production staff recruited guest judges like Kelly Clarkson and Kenan Thompson to stand in for him until doctors would allow him to return to AGT.
