PASADENA, CALIFORNIA: With only 2 acts advancing to 'America's Got Finale', the talent-hunt show competition couldn't get more cut-throat. Each of the performers brought in their A-game with hopes of impressing the audience and securing their votes. Celia Munoz, the singing ventriloquist featured on the show, piqued the interest of everybody with her unique act.

Despite her flawless performance, sadly, Celia lost her Top 2 spot to magician Nicolas Ribs and singer Sara James. When fans realized that Celia wouldn't be advancing to finale on account of not getting enough votes from the audience, they began slamming the audience. From declaring that Celia was 'robbed' to demanding for her to be brought back as wildcard, fans had a lot of strong feelings about her elimination.
