On Wednesday night, America’s Got Talent aired its first live results show of Season 16. Twelve acts performed during Tuesday’s Quarterfinals show, but only seven could move on to the Semifinals.
Host Terry Crews announced the results of the fan vote, which decided the first five acts to move on. Three acts were also up for the Instant Save Vote, and the judges were able to save one act.
Which ‘America’s Got Talent’ Acts Made It Through?
Tuesday night’s audience vote determined the first five acts to make it through to the Semifinals. 1aChord, Gina Brillon, Jimmie Herrod, Peter Rosalita, and Dustin Tavella went straight through thanks to America’s vote.
That means we had to say goodbye to Gangstagrass, Sethward, Matt Johnson, and the Canine Stars.
Who Won the Instant Save Vote?
The acts who came in sixth, seventh, and eight place in the overnight vote were eligible for the Instant Save. Beyond Belief Dance Company, Kabir Singh, and Madilyn Bailey were eligible.
Voting was open during the show, and fans ultimately chose to send Kabir Singh through to the Semi-finals. The judges then had to decide which of the remaining two acts should join him. The judges were tied, so the decision came down to which act had the most votes from viewers. That was Madilyn Bailey, meaning Beyond Belief Dance Company was eliminated.
