PASADENA, CALIFORNIA: After watching several death-defying stunts on 'America's Got Talent', the bar is pretty high when it comes to impressing not only the judges but also the audience. So, when Lazy Generation walked onto the stage dressed in pink tutus and ballerina flats and began doing bizarre stunts such as playing tug of war with cactus, the judges and fans had some very interesting reactions to it.

To everybody's surprise, Simon Cowell gave the group a standing ovation and lauded them for doing something very different! On the other hand, Sofia Vergara buzzed them no, and pointed out how they didn't have to put themselves through unnecessary pain for the sake of their act. While none of the other two judges agreed with Sofia, luckily, the 'Modern Family' star's views resonated with the audience. Several fans took to the show's YouTube clip of Lazy Generation to not only slam their act but also question how they made it to the semi-finals round.

A fan commented, "The fact that they made it this far is just beyond me." "This is not a serious act, this is ridiculousness on full display," declared another annoyed fan. "Yikes, I'm genuinely upset they made it through over people like Ben Waited and Debbie Dawson," pointed out a fan. "How did they even make it this far? You guys probably cut real talent to allow this foolishness through?" echoed a fan.

Another fan added, "I'm really getting tired of these sorts of acts. If you have to say "don't try this at home" maybe don't show it on agt. And even worse, it was boring. It didn't tell any kind of story, there wasn't a theme, and there was very little going on with most of the performers most of the time." "Probably the weakest act of the season. Simon Cowell liked it," shared a fan.
