'America's Got Talent' host Terry Crews told TODAY that season 16's performers really raised the bar.
“America’s Got Talent” returned for its 16th season Tuesday night, and some front-line heroes had the chance to show off just what they can do when not helping others.
Judges Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Sofia Vergara and Heidi Klum, along with host Terry Crews, told TODAY inleading up to the season premiere that the show will feature many memorable acts this year. Among them is the Northwell Health Nurse Choir, a group of 18 nurses who worked during the pandemic at various hospitals in the New York City area.
"It was uplifting," Crews told Natalie."It was one of those things because they've seen so much tragedy during this year ... that they needed to lean on each other as a choir, as a group, and it was amazing to watch."And the performance certainly lived up to the hype.
“One word comes to mind and it’s ‘heroic,’” Mandel told them. “I got to say that you are the most inspiring moment that I have had in the last year, not only for who you are, for what you do.”
