“America’s Got Talent” Gears Up for Record-Breaking Season 19 Featuring 2-Year-Old Math Whiz: See the Teaser! (Exclusive)
In addition to the youngest competitor in show history, ‘AGT’ season 19 will also see a janitor of 23 years tugging on heartstrings and judge Howie Mandel taking a plunger to the head
America’s Got Talent is back for another jaw-dropping season!
In PEOPLE’s new exclusive look at season 19, fans can expect to marvel and “aww” as a brand new crop of contestants showcase their abilities and tug on your heart strings.
The new season will see the return of host Terry Crews and judges Howie Mandel, Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum and Sofia Vergara. Though fans can expect the same level of talent and ribbing amongst judges, season 19 will feature a brand new twist: each judge will be two golden buzzers — a feature that automatically advances a contestant to the final round.
The trailer begins with an emotional introduction from a man named Mr. Richard, who has been working as a “janitor for 23 years” before taking a chance at his dream on AGT.
“For me, it’s not about the money, it’s about the people,” Mr. Richard explains before making the crowd and judges rise to their feet.
“We are breaking records this season. We have the youngest contestant in the history of Got Talent,” Howie, 68, explains as Mathematician Baby Dev waddles to the stage.
“He’s two-years-old, I mean, we couldn’t even do what this little boy did,” Heidi, 50, tells Sofía, who admits, “I can not even say mathematician!”
