'America's Got Talent' recap: 'Auditions'

Auditions continued for the third week in the June 14 episode of America’s Got Talent.

First up were American Spice Girls hopefuls, an act known as Good Girl. Impressing the judges with their En Vogue cover, the group received a standing ovation from the entire judge’s table, minus Simon. While Simon did urge the group to be more original, the judges unanimously sent them through to the next round.

Following Good Girl was a dance troupe of five seniors, John Rothman Dancers. Dancing to “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy,” the four women acted as the background dancers to the man, John. Calling their routine rather fun, the group was sent through with 3 yeses.

Diane Barnard was up next, taking the stage again after being rejected two years prior. Hula hooping to a Beethoven piece, Simon Cowell and Mel B rang their buzzers before the routine was up. Nick Cannon shortly joined her on stage with his own hula hoop, eventually whisking her away.

Back for a second attempt, the Russian Bar Trio decided to try again following Christine’s injury in season 3. Performing amazing aerial acrobatics with another hula hoop, the group received a standing ovation from Heidi Klum. They were sent through with 4 yeses.

A 12-year-old named Kadie Lynn Roberson left the judges and audience in awe with the next performance, a rendition of “Twinkle Twinkle Lucky Star.” Receiving a standing ovation from much of the audience, the judges were happy to send her through to the next round.

Next up was an act so dangerous that they took it outside. Duo Guerrero, a husband and wife pair of acrobats, slowly made their way onto a tightrope. The husband climbed onto the wife’s shoulders and to everybody’s awe, she began walking. Back inside, the nerve wracking routine was sent through.

High school acapella group, One Voice, followed Duo Guerrero’s act. Performing “Half the Man,” both the judges and audience adored the number. Shortly following a sweet promposal from one group member to another, the group was unanimously sent through to the next round.

Following a series of stand-up comedians, 13-year-old Lori Mae Hernandez, who made the judges and audience laugh with a few well-placed Trump jokes. Admiring her moxie, they sent her through.

Following Hernandez was a series of rejections. These acts included a woman who sang with her dog, a man in a chicken puppet suit, a pair of opera singers and Step’s Junk Funk, a group that used junk to play music.  Feeling frustrated, Simon called out each act for being horrible.

Following a concerning act that trapped Cowell on a chair onstage was juggler, Victor. Wearing a leotard that looked like a human body, Viktor quickly juggled so fast that the objects in his hand became a blur. Mesmerized by the lyrical nature of the routine, the judges unanimously sent him through.

Closing out the night was vocalist, Sal Valentinetti. With a classic voice, Sal wowed the judges with his rendition of Sinatra’s “My Way.” After receiving three yeses, Klum was inspired to hit her gold buzzer, immediately sending him through  to the live show.
