The votes were in. The eliminations were announced. The tension was palpable on America's Got Talent last night.
Read on for a rundown of who advanced and who is going home...
Read on for a rundown of who advanced and who is going home...
Elimination 1 - Music
When Nick Cannon called the first three acts, it was clear who was safe. In comparison to the other two, Shanice & Maurice were the only ones that the judges even gave positive feedback to with their live performance. Harkening back to how good one was in Vegas won't help a public that may have only tuned in this week.

The obvious point is that all these acts can't have an off week like American Idol
contestants can because we see them once in the quarterfinals. Michael
Nejad was compared to the vacuum cleaner he played. Nikki chose a very
sleepy song. While Shanice & Maurice picked a song that was from
Pearl Harbor, the message worked perfectly for a father/daughter team.
Out: Michael Nejad, Nikki Jensen
In: Shanice & Maurice

Elimination 2 - Dancers
The biggest issue I have with 787 Crew was that it is repetitive. If you ever watched ABDC, it used that breaking circle choreography then as well. It doesn't help that Puerto Rico has such a small voting block that they couldn't really support him. For me child acts tend to be wild cards. In Vegas, all the young singers trumped the Female Vocalist category including Nikki Jensen.

Lil Starr could have made it through on
another week with a song that wasn't LMFAO but it also didn't help that
she went fourth. If she went tenth, she could have been clumped with the
talented end acts. That being said, The Scott Brothers are great at
what they do and floating hat trick, while kind of easy (you twirl your
fingers around a hat), showed the variety that they needed to advance.
