'America's Got Talent: The Champions' season 2, revealed the three acts who made it to the semifinals from week 2. 

Last week Duo Transcend and Dania Diaz advanced to the semifinals after they received the most votes from superfans. Taking the last spot in the semi-finals was Hans who won the most votes from the judges. 

This week, the judges — Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Alesha Dixon, and Heidi Klum — returned to their seats. We were introduced to 10 new acts who gave it their best, but sadly not everyone could make it through. The act that won the Golden Buzzer was Boogie Storm. Simon stole Howie's Golden Buzzer, and pressed it for Boogie Storm, making it one amongst the most controversial moments on the show.

The three acts who advanced to the semifinals are: 

Marcelito Pomoy



 

Marcelito Pomoy was the winner of 'Philippines Got Talent' in 2011. Back again for 'AGT: The Champions' he kicked off the night with an impeccable solo performance by going back and forth between countertenor and tenor. The judges found it absolutely brilliant. While Simon urged Howie to use his Golden Buzzer, he didn't. But luckily Marcelito was saved by the superfans and advanced to the semifinals. He was the first contestant who advanced to the semifinals. 

Marc Spellman



 

Marc Spellman had participated in 2018's season of 'Britain's Got Talent', but didn't win. This season he was back as himself, his mysterious character X and someone else that left everyone with their jaw dropped. He performed an impeccable trick that started with him playing a random choice game with the judges. In the end, after Howie revealed that his favorite magician is Shin Lim, X removed his mask only to reveal that it was none other than Shin Lim under the mask leaving the judges spell-bound. He was the second act to make it through the semifinals via the superfans vote. 

Ryan Neimiller



 

Ryan Neimiller made us laugh our hearts out during season 14 of 'America's Got Talent' and he made it till the finals ranking third. Back again this season, he entered the stage with confidence and cracked jokes about his life as a famous comedian and touring. After his performance, the crowd was cheering for Howie to give him the Golden Buzzer, but sadly he couldn't use it because Simon already stole it. But luckily, Ryan still advanced to the semifinals after all four of the judges voted for him during the judges save. 

'America's Got Talent: The Champions' Season 2 airs every Monday night only on NBC. Check your local listings for more information.
