I thought I was gonna be.

Are you ready to get going?

- Here we go, guys.
Here we go.

Please take your seats,
thank you.

- Hello, guys.
- Hey.

- All right, can I get
your names one at a time?

- I'm Nate Brown.
- Gabriel Brown.

- And you are brothers.

- Yes.
- Yes, sir.

- So, guys, we're gonna test

[buzzer]

- I'm Nate Brown.

- Tell me about yourself.

- We're both Navy veterans
and...

- Thank you for your service.
- Thank you.

- And we're also autistic,

so socializing is difficult,

and this is
kind of terrifying really.

[chuckles]
- Aw.

- My brother's
more extroverted,

so I let him
do the talking.

- Oh, wow.
- Most of the time,

high-functioning, I figure,

means that we're good at
pretending that we're normal.

[laughter]
- I don't like that word,

normal.
- I don't either, 'cause

I've never met a normal person.
- Me either.

- I don't know what normal is.
And what is the hope?

- That we can be a voice for
and inspire people like us.

- That's amazing.
Good luck.

- Thank you very much.
- Thank you.

- There you go. Yeah.

So I have these cards.

If I could
bring them down to you?

Would that be okay?
- Yes.

- Okay, thank you.

This is how
Nathaniel communicates.

This is just an excuse
to see you guys up close.

[whispers] You look amazing.

Okay.

These are character cards,
and these are...

- Shall I pass these out?
- Song titles.

And yes, if you could
please select one of each.

- Oh, I know which one
I'm keeping.

- And then please place them

on these easels
that we made in my garage.

Okay, I'm gonna go.
- One yellow and one blue.

- Thank you.
- You can put it here.

- So you guys know,

there's actually
576 possible iterations.

So this is
a little nerve-wracking

because we have no idea
what's gonna happen.

- [laughs]
I mean, look at him.

Of course.
- Yeah, yeah.

to being someone to judge *

* *

Terry Crews.

You were so good.

done your voice this good ever?

- No one.
- No.

No, actually, no.

your personalities as well.

[wild cheering]

are brothers because I can
feel the love between you two.

And the performance
was just spectacular.

Fun.
It was on point.

were so funny.

I mean, the people
are loving you guys.

different boxes.

You're a very good singer

dancing for you.

A solo lyrical piece.
- All right.

- So when did you
get the dance bug?

- Well, this is actually
my tenth year dancing,

like, taking classes,
but I've always been dancing.

Ever since I was
a little tacker, so...

- Little tacker.
So cute.

like, the most sold out

choreographer and dancer
in the world.

- All right.
- Whoo.

- Love to be making
my own work.

- Yes.

- Well, that's a good answer.

by yourself from Australia?

[wild cheering]

- Can I ask you a question?

Have you mom and dad
always supported you?

- Yes, very much so,
but I've always faced,

like, self-things, like...
- Self-doubt.

- I've always gone through
stages that are, like,

I don't know if this is for me.

Like, and I get worried about
what people think,

but it's moments like this

that just make me fall in love
with what I do.

[cheering]

- I mean, look, Max,

I don't know a lot about dance,

but you've come
halfway around the world

to show us something,
and it was magic...

- Thank you.
- From the minute it started

to the minute it ended.

And all the time
I was thinking,

if this was my son, you know,
who did the same thing,

I would be swelling
with pride right now.

- Thank you.
- Honestly.

- Don't ever tell yourself

that this is not for you
because this is for you.

- Thank you.

- The energy and electricity
of you loving

everything you were doing...
- Yes.

- And you loving being here
was contagious.

- Yes.
- And there is nothing

more joyous
than watching joyfulness,

and you are the epitome
of joyfulness.

Go celebrate.
You did it.

Oh, that was good.

- [screams]

- Yep.

Whoo-hoo.
- * Oh, oh *

- Simon, we're talking about,

like, if we were going

to participate in the show
as contestants...

- What would we do.
- Well, what would you do?

- I would yodel
while hula hooping.

- Not a bad idea.
Sofía.

- Of course, something
that comes natural to me

is the ventrilqolist.
- [laughs]

- What would you do?

- I like danger acts.

I can't explain it.

It's like when you go up

the really steep
roller coaster.

- Yeah.
- Thrill.

- I like the feeling afterward.

* *

- What we gonna show is

something that is not
done before.

It's very dangerous.

Our father used to be
a knife thrower

and our mother,
she was his target.

So for us it's normal...
- Normal.

- In the family.

* *

- Good evening.

- Good evening.
- Good evening.

- Who are you?
- I'm Tyrone Laner.

a dual of knife throwing.

- Yeah.

[laughter]

- So how dangerous is this act?

- Very, very dangerous.

- What is the craziest
nightmare you've ever had?

- Craziest nightmare?
Already happen.

It is hit each other
with a knife.

audience: Oh!
- Oh, my God.

- Where would you like
to see yourself in a year?

- Well, I hope to see in the
biggest shows around the world.

- Do you think
you could do that?

- I think...yes.

[cheering]

- Okay, good luck.

- Thank you very much.
- Thank you.

[cheering]

- Oh, man.
Oh, shoot.

They're pulling knives out.

I'm gonna back up.

[driving rock music]

* *

- Oh.

* *

- Whoa.

* *

- Whoa.

* *

[bleep]!

* *

- Whoa.

Oh, my God.
- [screams]

- Oh.

- [screams]

- I think he hit her
a little bit.

[percussive rock music]

* *

- Man.

- Everything is so wobbly,
you know?

It's not, like, sturdy.

- Do not try this at home.
Please.

- What is he doing now?
- No!

- Circling on that whole thing.
- Oh, my God, that thing turns.

- Oh, shoot.

- Yeah, no más.

- Whoa!

- Damn.

- Whoa!

- [groans]

[intense music]

Oh, he didn't do it.

He hesitated.

- I'm dizzy.

- Aah!
- Oh!

[wild cheering]

- Whoo.

- I feel like they're happy
themselves that it's over.

- [laughs]
- They're like, "Yes!"

Right?
- Yes.

[uplifting music]

- I mean,
we needed that tonight.

- Yeah.
- I think we needed energy.

That adrenaline.
That was amazing.

I was, like, suffering.

I hated it, actually.

I hated it
because it's so good.

[laughter]

What did you think, Howie?
- I agree with you

in every way.
It was so cool, so dangerous.

The speed that you're
throwing things at each other

while you're both moving

are things beyond
what we have seen before.

Season 17
is just blowing my mind.

- Thank you.
- Thank you very much.

- Heidi.
- I was scared.

It was frightening.

I feel like you were
a little scared too.

And I could see you were,
like, so relieved

every time he didn't hit you,
and when it was over

you both were like,

"Yes, we did it
without hitting each other."

- Simon, what do you think?

- What you do...I can only
imagine how scary it is.

- If you want to try,
I invite you.

- Yes, go ahead, Simon, go.
- For sure.

all: [chanting "Simon"]

- Okay.

[cheering]

all: [chanting "Simon"]

- Okay.
- Really?

- Okay, what do I do?
- Okay, you just

stand in the middle...
- Okay.

- Without moving.
- Okay.

Have you watched
the show before?

- [laughs]
Yeah.

- Do you like me?

- Yes, of course.
[laughs]

- Do you like me?
- Yes, of course.

- I guess it's safer
than being on a bike.

- Howie, shut up.
- Okay.

Oh, no.

both: [screams]

- Okay, what do I do?
- Okay, you just

stand in the middle...
- Okay.

- Without moving.
- Okay.

- I guess it's safer
than being on a bike.

- Howie, shut up.
- Okay.

[crowd commotion]

Oh, no.

- Aah!

I can see that.

I'm definitely saying yes.
- Thank you very much.

- You're welcome.

- * This is gonna be
the best day of my life *

* My life *

- That...how scary
did that look?

That was scary.

- Hello, sir.
I'm Terry Crews.

Well, what are you
gonna do here on "AGT"?

- I'm gonna be doing
a little ventriloquism.

- Oh, well, you know there is
a huge and wonderful history

of ventriloquism here on "AGT."

Like Terry Fator...
- Yes.

Darci Lynne.
Talk to me about that legacy.

- It's always been my dream.

When I was a little boy,

I always really wanted
to make people laugh.

So I randomly asked my dad,

"Do you have
a ventriloquist dummy?"

And he just looked at me
and he was like...

"Yes."

- * Whoo hoo hoo hoo... *

- I just started practicing,
like, every day

and my school had
a third-grade talent show.

- One, two, three and...

[laughter]

The feeling I get when
I make somebody else laugh...

Thank you.

Gives me that same rush
I had when I was a kid.

Currently, what I do
is social media,

and I feel like
everything that I've done

has kind of led up
to this moment.

- Here it is, man.
It's your time.

- Thank you, man.
- Thank so much.

Go right on out.

Being on this show

is kind of,
like, the quintessential

stamp of approval
for a ventriloquist

which has always been my dream.

- * My life *

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Who are you?
Where you from?

- My name is Jack Williams.
- Yes.

- I am from Indianapolis,
Indiana.

[cheering]

- And I'm guessing
you are a magician.

- Close. I am a ventriloquist.

- Ooh.
- Yes.

- Do you also know who
is a very good ventriloquist?

- Right there.
- Exactly.

- Fellow ventriloquist.
- Yeah.

- We actually had
three winners so far.

- Exactly. It's, honestly,
big shoes to fill.

Terry was one of the first
ventriloquists I ever saw.

And when I saw him on the
stage, I just thought, like,

"I just want to do that.
That's amazing."

And that's why I wanted
to come here today.

I want to do this live,
like, on the Vegas strip.

[cheering]

- Well, good luck to you.
- Thank you.

- And we can't wait
to meet your friend.

- Guys, give it up for
my good buddy, Foster.

Ready, buddy?
- Yeah.

- Here we go.
- Whoo.

- Hello.

- Here we are, buddy, "AGT."

- My plan is working.

- What's your plan?

- Well, basically, I used you
to smuggle me out here,

and now I'm gonna
show my talent.

- He's funny.

- Cute.
- So cute.

- What's your talent?
- Ventriloquism.

- That's what I'm doing
right now.

- Really?
- Yes.

- [laughs]

- You think you're a better
ventriloquist than me?

You think you can talk
without moving your lips?

- Well, I don't have any,
so yeah.

- Okay.
- [laughs]

- Well, let's see
who's the better ventriloquist

by doing some tongue twisters.

I'll start by saying
Sally sells seashells

by the seashore,
and then you go after.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Sally sells sea...

Sally--
- Come on!

- Okay.
[laughter]

Sally...
- It's like this.

Sally sells seashells
by the seashore.

Sally sells
seashells by the seashore.

Sally sells seashells
by the seashore.

- Whoa.

- Can you do that
without moving your mouth?

- [laughs]

- No. No, I can't.

- I love him.

- I'm gonna do something
I said I would never do.

- You wouldn't.
- I would.

- Please.

No.

- I'm gonna throw your voice.
- What?

[gradually fades]
What, what, what, what, what?

- Wow.

[no sound]

- I threw your voice.
It's gone.

It's gone.
It's over there.

- [silence]
[laughter]

Wait, wait, wait,
listen, listen.

I think I hear it coming back.

- [crescendo-ing]
What, what, what, what, what,

what, what, what, what,
what, what, what...

What?

I...

I have your voice.

And that means...

- I have your voice.

- Wow.

- Simon.
- Yes.

- Help me.

- Here, here.
Come here, come here.

[blows]
- [groans]

That's better.

- Here, give it up for Foster,
everybody.

- Yeah.

- Yeah!

- * We light it up,
we won't come down *

- * And the walls
can't stop us now *

- * Watching it come down *
- Wow.

- The judges are on their feet.

- * This is
the greatest show *

* This is the greatest show *

- You are fantastic,

and I just know there
are so many "AGT" fans

out there that love
exactly what you do

'cause you're really good,
we love your friend.

and I love you even more.
- Thank you very much.

- You're not only
a ventriloquist,

but you're an amazing comedian

and poking fun at the
actual art of ventriloquism,

which I thought was unique
and original.

And here, on "AGT",
we love unique and original.

You're amazing.

- Sofía.

- That was perfection.

I mean, coming from
someone like me,

you know, I know
what I'm talking about.

- Yes.
[laughter]

- I can tell you,
you are really good.

- Thank you.
[laughter]

- Simon.

- I'm gonna be honest with you.

As you can tell,
we love this kind of act.

I would say, I think in terms
of a first audition,

one of the best we've ever had.
- Thank you.

- Yes, absolutely.

- All right, let's vote then.
Simon.

- I have to give you
your first yes.

- * This is
the greatest show *

- Sofía.
- Yes.

- Howie.
- Yes.

your fourth yes.

the greatest show... *

- Oh, my goodness, Jack.

Oh, man, that was so good.
- Thank you.

- I loved him.
- I loved him too.

- I loved him.

- I honestly just wanted
to get past the first round.

To even has this reaction
is absolutely crazy.

- Coming from you,
it probably means so much.

- It means a lot to him.

I'm sure that he was shy to say
that he look up to me.

- I'm sure he has a poster of
you and Mr. Grumpy in his room.

[laughter]
- * This is *

* The greatest show *

* *

- Coming up...

- [screams]
- Oh, my God.

- [screams]
- What just happened?

Me too. I'm Polish.

- Oh, yeah.
So we could be related.

- Oh, that's...
[laughs]

- So what made you decide to
come on "America's Got Talent"?

- You know, when I was,
like, little, I was,

you know, always watching
the videos and YouTube

of the show and I was
so, you know, amazed by that.

And, you know,
they said that in America,

you know, everything,
you know, is come true.

The dreams come true,
so I check if that's true.

- Aw.

- I love that.
- Thank you.

And how old are you, Sara?

- I'm 13.

- 13?
- Oh, my God!

- What?
- 13, yeah.

- Oh, wow.
- Okay.

I'm guessing you're a singer,
yeah?

- Uh, yeah, yeah.

- Tell me the song
you're gonna sing

and why you chose
this song, please.

- I'm gonna sing
a Billie Eilish song, "Lovely."

- Okay.

- I feel it's really emotional,

really...the lyrics
are really, you know, full.

I hope you're gonna like it.
Like, everyone's gonna like it.

- Okay, well, listen,

I've got a good feeling
about you for some reason.

All right, Sara...
- Thank you.

- Good luck.

Thank you.

We've heard a lot of singers
over the years, but wow.

There are
those moments where...

- Yes.

- I mean, this wasn't perfect,

however, you have
a real star glow about you.

- Thank you so much.

Wow, thank you.
I appreciate it.

- Sara, is this
your first time to America?

- Yeah, that's true.

- It must be such
an unbelievable feeling

doing this in front
of an American audience...

- Yeah.
- 'Cause I'm guessing

this is probably where
you dreamt of performing.

- Mm-hmm, yeah.
- And I can remember

when I came to America
for the first time,

and that was 20-odd years ago,

and that was a moment
I'll never forget.

And I want to make this
a moment

for you to remember forever.

- Oh. Oh.

the rain is gone *

Give it up one more time
for Sara.

for your next act?

[cheers and applause]

- I heard that an old hospital
used to be here

and that's what
they built the theater on.

[eerie music]

And I bet you that's why

it has a little bit
of the heebie-jeebies.

You were scary.
You were dramatic.

honest with you.

I like the idea.
It was just a bit slow.

And I'm a bit stupid,

so I didn't really
follow the story.

- Simon,
there was a storyline.

- Yes.
- What was the story?

- She brought him back to life.
- It was like Frankenstein.

- Through love.

* *

it was romantic.

I mean, I want to see
more of you guys.

to be your unique, weird self.

- The crowd gave me
a standing ovation.

- It is a moment
we'll never forget.

- This is the moment

and this is the right place
I'm supposed to be.

I've seen this season.

Thank you so much.

so proud of all of you

because you all are fantastic.

I can't even describe it either
because it was like...

blllll-ftttttt!

You guys are so good.

[cheering]

- I'm kinda speechless here
because it was just perfection.

It really, really was.

- Thank you so much.

- And I could see how much
this means to all of you

and, you know, this is
the whole purpose of the show,

is to discover talented people
like yourselves.

Can I ask what is kind of the
dream here if you were to win?

- Like everybody's dream,
we want to help our family.

we will get through
the second round.

- Aw...

- Okay, and where is your dad?
Is he in the wing right there?

- Yeah.
- [laughs]

- Should we ask him
to sit right here

since Howie's not there?
- Oh, God, yeah.

- Okay, do you want to sit here
for this performance?

- Yes!
- Dad?

- Oh, yeah.
Yeah, go ahead.

[cheering]

- Hello.
- It's odd.

It's odd, because you
could be Howie, kind of.

- How are you doing?
- I'm Jake.

- Nice to meet you, Jake.

God, you're better looking
than Howie.

You are.
You're very handsome.

- [laughs]

- Don't you think it's
much better from over here?

- It's much better.
- All right.

- It's good.
- There we go.

- So what will you be doing
for us today?

- I'm a singer.
- Okay.

- How do you feel?
- Are you nervous?

- Very.

- We all wish you good luck.
Go ahead.

- Thank you.

- What is going on?
- [laughs]

- And look at her face,
like, nothing.

- * Stand to the left of me *

- Whoa.

[wild cheering]
- Yeah.

[Katy Perry's
"Eye of the Tiger"]

- * I used to bite my tongue
and hold my breath *

* Scared to rock the boat
and make a mess *

- Oh, my God.

What did just happen?

- I mean...
- God.

- I don't know what to say.

- Okay.

- Ay, Dios, mío.
- [laughs]

- Jake, what do you think?
You're her dad.

- I love it.
I'm so proud.

- Thank you.
- [laughs]

- He loved it.

- This was unexpected,
I have to say.

- Slightly.
- Amazing.

- Well, we did say
we like surprises.

When did all this start?
- Since I was three.

- It's like you have
a monster inside.

- [laughs]

- Have you ever seen a film
called "The Exorcist"?

[laughter]

Actually, kidding aside,
that was brilliant.

- Yeah.
- Thank you.

- I mean, brilliant.
It was like a mouse

turning into a vampire bat
or something.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, and it was effortless.

Like, her face was not
transforming into a monster.

- [laughs]
- It was just

something coming
out of her...

- [snorting]
- That was so crazy.

- Thank you.
- I loved it.

- Yeah, we love you.
- Thank you.

- Should we vote?

I'm gonna give you
your first yes.

- Yes.
- Thank you.

- Sofía.
- Yes.

- Thank you.
- Simon.

- You got three yeses.

- * I got the eye
of the tiger *

- Thank you so much.
- Great.

- Four yeses.

- * Fire
'cause I am champion *

* And you're gonna
hear me roar *

* Louder *

- I love that
she didn't give it away

with her outfit or anything,
you know?

- Right, and then she goes back
to being normal again.

- Yeah, just a little voice,
like, little girl.

- * Hear me roar
Oh, oh, oh, oh *

- Oh, look how dad
is so proud of you, Harper.

It was so good.
How do you feel?

- I feel amazing.
- Oh, my goodness.

- Only on "AGT."
- Yeah, only on "AGT."

- * Roar *

- Coming up...

- Hi.
I'm really hard of hearing,

so it does make heckling me
an ADA violation.

- We're the Players' choir,
Football Players' choir.

We play professional football,
all of us.

- Whoa.
- Oh.

- Follow me for

"America's Got Talent"
auditions.

- I can't believe
we're actually here.

[chanting] AGT! AGT!

AGT! AGT!

AGT! AGT!
[fading]

- I'm Hayden Kristal.
It's so nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you.
- Yeah.

- Now, what are you going
to be doing here on "AGT"?

- I'm going to be doing
stand-up comedy.

- So when did you decide
you were funny?

- We'll see
what the feedback is today.

[laughter]

I was born deaf into a family
that does not sign,

and they're all hearing,
so it was just me.

- * Close your eyes,
knew that there *

- So communication
has always been

something that
I have struggled with.

I think early on
I found that comedy

is a language
everyone understands.

If I say something
and you laugh at it,

that's a connection.

I always love that feeling.

- Why "AGT"?

- This is one of the biggest
stages in the world,

and watching some
of the people that "AGT"

has given opportunities to
has given me more confidence

to pursue this for myself.

"America's Got Talent,"
it's my mom's favorite show.

We watched it together
growing up,

and it's surreal to be here.

- * Why don't we start *

- I'm, like, gonna cry
thinking about that.

- * Why don't we start *

- To be auditioning for
"America's Got Talent,"

that has been
the dream for me.

- All right, Hayden.

Who's the judge you want
to impress the most?

- Honestly, I'm really hoping
that Heidi likes my dress.

- Oh, that's it. That's it.

- I picked it specifically,
so we'll see.

- All right.
- I'm just saying.

- Go on out and make your dream
come true right now.

- Thank you so much.
- Oh, thank you.

Go right on out.

- * Why don't we start
from here *

- Hi.

- Good evening.

How are you?

- I'm totally kidding.

Not about the sign language.
That part is real.

I am working with
an interpreter tonight.

I am really hard of hearing.

I preform my sets in English,
but I do like to start that way

'cause make heckling me
an ADA violation.

[laughter]
So...

- Hello.
What's your name?

- Julie.
- Hi, Julie.

- How are you tonight?

- Oh, I'm good.
My name is Hayden Kristal.

I'm a comedian.

I'm actually a touring comic
right now,

but part of why
I wanted to come to

"America's Got Talent" is
watching so many other comics

with disabilities come here
and succeed before I did.

Like Drew Lynch,
DJ Demers years ago.

[cheering]

Yeah.

When I see other people
with disability on this stage

and thriving, I know that
they were given the tools

to be able to succeed here
which is...

Yeah.

- Thank you so much then
for being here tonight.

We're ready for you.

- Thank you.
Okay. I'm gonna start.

So I dual majored in college.

I studied sign language

and...Which that felt like
a freebie, right?

But I also majored
in zoo-keeping,

which seemed like
a really fun thing at the time,

but now I have a degree
in American Sign Language

and zoo-keeping.

And Koko
the sign language gorilla

died, like, four years ago.

[laughter]

So what I'm saying is that
comedy has to work out for me.

[laughter]

Yeah, this has to go, guys.
This has to go good.

My safety net is dead.
She's gone, so...

I know, it's very sad.

So I, actually,
I applied to work

at the Koko Foundation
when I was in college

and they rejected me
because I have hearing loss.

[crowd booing]

But they...yes,
boo the Koko Foundation.

They told me
I was a liability issue

because if the gorilla
were to sneak up on me,

I would not be able to hear it.

Which I can't say
with any degree of certainty,

but probably.
That seems true.

So you guys seem like
a nice crowd

full of hearing people,

so I'm just gonna toss this
question out into the room.

Um...What are
y'all gonna do different

if a gorilla sneaks up on you?

[laughter]

Yeah, thank you.
I would love to know.

[cheering]

- That makes a lot of sense.

- DM me after the show.

I am just desperate to know
what home field advantage

y'all have with
your two-second head start.

Ridiculous.
Nothing. Nothing.

The only different you're gonna
do different than me

is die scared--
that's it.

[laughter]

That's the only thing.
Yeah.

Thank you.

[cheers and applause]

- Hayden, thank you so much
for being here tonight.

I had a great time
listening to you.

I love that you
make fun of yourself.

I was laughing the whole time.

Heidi, what do you think?

- We have amazing comedians
on this show

and I think that you would be
a great addition

to what we already have

so you can really
battle it out with them.

- Simon.
- Was that a true story?

- Yes.

- I mean,
it's brilliantly funny.

So seriously, and the fact
that you can turn that

into a funny story,
which is so crazy

that they would do that.

To your point,
what difference does it make?

You know?
- I, you know...

- I'm with you.
- I've been trying to start

Twitter beef with them
for, like, ten years,

so if you guys want...

- That's it.
I'll join you.

I can also see this means
an awful lot to you.

- Yeah, I...
It's really a privilege

and an honor
to just be here.

So thank you.

- I'm really happy that we met.

- Thank you so much.

- I think we're gonna
vote now for you.

Heidi, what is your vote?

- I want to see you more.

So I'm gonna give you
your first yes.

- * I am here *

- [mouthing] Thank you.

- * I am here *

- I am going
to give you your second yes.

- * So there's
nothing to fear *

- [mouths thank you]

- Simon.

- Hayden, I'm saying
yes to you

and Julie, I'm also saying
yes to you.

- [laughs]

[wild cheering]

- Good luck, Hayden.

I think Howie
would have loved her.

- Yeah, she's sweet.

- Hayden, talk to me.
You seem very emotional.

Talk to me right now.
What are you feeling?

- Just validation
from some place that really

meant a lot to me
in starting this.

And to be here,
it's unbelievable

and I felt like I already won
just making it to tonight.

And that was even better.

- * So let me ask you *

- Superbowl ain't got
nothing on this, y'all.

Let's go.

- * You can be the greatest *

* You can be the best *

- All right, team,
look, we've come a long way,

we've been practicing.

- What time is it?
- Game time!

- What time is it?
- Game time!

- Ready.
Ready for this.

- One, two, three, "AGT"!

- * Standing in
the hall of fame *

* Ooh, yeah *

- All right, wow, wow, wow.

I feel like
I'm right at home, man.

I know that you guys
have played in the NFL.

Tell me what teams
you played for.

- Carolina Panthers.
- Atlanta Falcons.

- Buffalo Bills.
- Chicago Bears.

- New England Patriots.
And San Francisco 49ers.

- Talk to me about what are
you guys here to do on "AGT"?

- We're here for two reasons.

The first is,
we've spent a lot of our time

preparing and prepping
to play football

at a really high level,
but inside all of us,

there's still this little kid
that always had this dream

to sing on a big stage,
and that is happening.

So, you know, that dream
is coming alive.

And I got to tell you,
we're actively recruiting, sir.

- Yes.
- And I know...

- Oh.
[coughs]

- Come on now.
Let me hear it.

- I feel like I'm back
in the locker room today.

[mimics dog bark]
- Break it down for us.

- All right, fellas, let's go.

- * You can throw
your hands up *

* You can beat the clock *

* You can move the mountain *

* You can break rocks *

* You can be a master *

* Don't wait for luck *

* Dedicate your... *
- Hello.

How are you?

- We are wonderful, Simon.
We are wonderful.

- Well, I can see that.

It's very,
very nice to meet you.

Now, tell me your name.

- So we're the Players' choir,
Football Players' choir.

We play professional football,
all of us.

- Whoa!
- Oh.

- Do you all play
for different teams?

- Well, some of played
on the same team.

- Yeah.
- But majority,

we all played
on different teams,

went against each other.
Yeah.

- Okay, so you were kind of
rivals and now you're friends.

- Teammates, brothers.
- That's right.

- Yeah.

- This is amazing.

[cheering]

How did you get started?

- In 2004, we got on the stage

with a gospel concert
that we do every year,

every Superbowl, it's called
Celebration of Gospel.

And Patti LaBelle got on stage

and she said,

"I see all these
good-looking men.

Let me see who can sing."

And she started
passing the mic around

and she found out
some of us got a little talent.

And so that's
how it all started.

- Are you serious?
- Yes, Patti LaBelle.

- That started.
- [laughs]

- That's so cool.

- Okay, so from there,
what happened next?

- Well, we formed
the Players' choir

and we would go out
in the community

and actually go to different
fundraising events,

so St. Jude, we also support
the American Cancer Society,

and we just kind of
made a point to,

you know,
spread light and bring joy.

Sometime--
the world needs it, so...

[cheering]

- Wow.

- I feel like
I'm in a movie right now.

I love this.
I love stories like this.

So why did you enter "AGT"?

- Time is fleeting, y'all.

If you have a dream
that you're holding on to,

take the shot.

[cheering]

- I love these guys, man.

- I mean, are you guys as
intense with your rehearsal

as being in the field
and practicing?

- Yeah, we're probably worse
because...

- Really?
- Listen,

we come from a place
that's black or white,

we got to get it done.
- Yeah.

- And if everybody
do their job,

everybody do it right,
we gonna be together as a team.

So that's how we do it.

- That's amazing.

- I'm really excited.
You better be good after this.

[laughter]

Okay, what are you gonna sing?

- So we're gonna sing a classic

and any successful team,
family,

they all live by this motto:
"Lean On Me."

[cheers and applause]

- Good luck.

They're a great group.
- They're great.

- I love this.

- Y'all got this.
Y'all got this.

* *

- * Sometimes in our life *

* We all have pain *

* We all have sorrow *

* But if we are wise *

* We know that there's *

* Always tomorrow *

all: * Lean on me *

* When you're not strong *

* I'll be your friend *

* I'll help you carry on *

* For it won't be long *

* Till I'm gonna need *

* Somebody to lean on *
- * Hey *

all: * Just call on me,
brother *

* If you need a hand *

* We all need somebody *

* To lean on *
- * Hey *

all: * I just might
have a problem *

- * Might have a problem *

all: * That you'll understand *
- * You'll understand *

all: * We all need somebody *
- * Oh, oh *

all: * To lean on *

* Lean on me *

* When you're not strong *
- * I'll be your friend *

all: * I'll be your friend *
- * Yes, I will *

all: * I'll help you carry on *

* For it won't be long *
- * Oh, yeah *

* I'm gonna need *
all: * Till I'm gonna need *

* Somebody to lean on *

* Lean on *

* Somebody to lean on *

[wild cheering]

- Bravo!

- Touchdown!

- Whoo!

- I'm gonna ask you
one question.

I'm kind of curious.

I just want to hear
your voices together.

So can we do this
just a cappella?

I want to just hear
that chorus without the track.

- Okay.

Here we go.
Two.

all: * Lean on me *

- Ah.
- * When you're not strong *

all: * When you're not strong *

- * And I'll be your friend *

all: * And I'll be
your friend *

- * Yes, I will *

all: * I'll help you carry on *

* For it won't be long *
- * Oh, yeah *

* I'm gonna need *
all: * Till I'm gonna need *

* Somebody to lean on *

[harmonizing]
* Lean on *

* Somebody to lean on *

[wild cheering]

- It's so much better.

- Yeah.
It's like, wow.

[wild cheering]

- Whoo!

[uplifting music]

- We got talent, y'all.

All the athletes
got more than one dream.

- I thought that
was so much fun

and I could see that
you guys were having fun.

I think this is what
you guys are meant to do,

and I feel that it's fantastic.

I love the choir
and to also be using

all of your fame
and everything for charity,

I love this.

- Thank you.

- I mean,
that's why Simon is Simon

because he always gets
the best out of everyone.

Because literally,
you all sounded so much better

and not that you didn't
sound good before,

but without the track
and it was just your voices,

you harmonized
beautifully together.

And everyone
was super on point.

- Thank you. Thank you.

- Yeah, look, this does happen,
you know?

We do have singers,
choirs, whatever,

and they come on and
the tracks just don't work.

And I'm always curious,

not only to hear
what you sound like

but also how quickly you just
adapted in, like, five seconds.

It was, like, yeah. Done.

You are good singers,
and as importantly,

your energy and your story
is just amazing.

I really love you guys.

I do.

Apart from that I like you
and love your story,

you're competitive.

And I think every
great competition

needs people
who really want to win

and I can tell
you really want to win,

and I love that.

It's time.

Heidi.
- I give you a yes.

- Yes!
- Whoo!

- Sofía.
- Yes.

- Oh!
- That's a yes.

- I'm not gonna give you
three yeses.

I'm gonna...No.
I'm not.

I'm not gonna give you
three yeses.

I'm gonna give you

3,000 yeses.

- * You're gonna see me rise *

- Bravo.

* *

- * Oh, and rise *

- Thank you, guys.
- Thank you.

- Bye.

- * Rise *

- Nice guys.

- The smile on their faces,

how proud were they
of themselves?

- That was spectacular.

- There are so many
good acts this year.

- Man, you remember that
first time you got drafted,

game you suited up,
put on the uniform?

You saw your number,

you saw your name
on the back of that jersey,

you went out,
and when you came off the field

you knew you gave it your all
and your one.

That's victory right there!
[cheering]

- Honestly, that was one
of my favorite ever sessions.

I'm so glad
we shared it together.

- * You're gonna see me rise *

[upbeat music]
