‘AGT’ Season 19: Simon Cowell drops best acts to award ‘Kindness’ Golden Buzzer
Pasadena, California: ‘America’s Got Talent’ Season 19 aerialist duo Sebastian Jimenez and Sonia Moreno recently bagged Simon Cowell’s golden buzzer and secured a spot in the semifinals. However, quarter-final round 4 showcased a series of talented contestants who also deserved Simon’s golden buzzer, with some suggesting his choice may have been influenced by a sense of ‘pity’.
Sebastian and Sonya face a significant setback just before their big performance. During rehearsals, Sonia injured her arm and could not perform. Nevertheless, Sebastian chose to continue with the show and delivered a solo quarterfinal routine to Shawn Mendes’ ‘In My Blood’. Contestants on the NBC show twirl, twist and flaunt her gravity-defying aerial silks. Despite Sebastian’s outstanding performance, Simon awards him the Golden Bazaar due to his setbacks. Sebastian would have likely received enough audience votes to reach the semi-finals, potentially saving other talented artists such as Simon Brent Street, Praniska Mishra and Solange Cardinali.
