Sofia Finally Pressed The Golden Buzzer
Sofia, who has been dazzling viewers since joining AGT in 2021, brought her signature charm and high-energy vibes to Tuesday night’s episode, which saw the debut of the much-discussed live Golden Buzzer.
The former Modern Family star was clearly thrilled, practically bouncing out of her seat after witnessing the jaw-dropping performance by the Tanzanian acrobat troupe. Their act was nothing short of mesmerizing, and Sofia couldn’t resist giving them a golden ticket to the finals.
The live Golden Buzzer, revealed by host Terry Crews, has been a hot topic ever since its announcement. The format shakeup allows each judge to advance one act to the finale, which has sparked mixed reactions from fans.
Terry teased the twist with a dramatic, “This summer, anything can happen,” right before the show went on hiatus for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
When AGT returned, the excitement was palpable as Sofia rejoined fellow judges Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, and Howie Mandel to kick off Season 19’s first quarterfinal on August 13.

The Hakuna Matata Acrobats stole the show, earning the first-ever live show Golden Buzzer with their incredible performance. To the beat of Zayde Wolf’s “Maniac,” the acrobats executed a series of breathtaking stunts, including mind-blowing headstands and mid-air splits, while balancing precariously on each other. It was a daring display that left Sofia, and the rest of us, absolutely awestruck.
Heidi couldn’t stop gushing about their fearless act, calling it “one of the most difficult, dangerous acts we have seen on a live show.”
Simon agreed, stating, “It felt to me like you have arrived.” Not to be outdone, Heidi added, “It’s death-defying what you do. On top of it, you are doing it on a roller baller. You guys are incredible.”
