'AGT' Season 19: Watch Heidi Klum booed by live audience into saying 'yes' to DaksDominoes

Heidi Klum admits she wasn't really enthusiastic by DaksDominoes' performance and isn't sure if everyone would want to see it in Las Vegas

PASADENA, CALIFORNIA: After 19 seasons, you'd think the 'America's Got Talent' judges had seen it all, but you'd be mistaken. DaksDominoes performed an act that required overnight preparation, leaving viewers and one of the judges wanting more.

The judges were perplexed at first when DaksDominoes declared that their skill was, indeed, dominoes, and that they had established two world records. In a clever editing move, the producers sent everyone in the theater home and let the two guys create their trick overnight so it would be ready to use the next day.

As they prepared to begin the audition the following morning, and with everyone being cautious around the setup, some plastic cups tumbled down, but this did not trigger the entire sequence. After giving Howie Mandel the privilege of tapping the first domino in the sequence, the trick was carried out successfully to the conclusion.

Howie encouraged the lads to try to break another record if they performed again, and Sofía Vergara mentioned that they had a "special" performance. Heidi Klum said she wasn't "super excited" and saw it as a "fun thing to try and do at home," rather than something people would go see in Vegas.

Simon Cowell shot back at Heidi, arguing that talent isn't necessarily about being Vegas-ready, but rather about demonstrating something they've never seen before. Heidi reversed her "no" based on the crowd reaction and joined the others in a "yes" vote to advance to the next round.

Similar to Heidi, many viewers questioned the act and whether it is Vegas worthy. Some of them took to social media to criticize the act.

On Reddit, one user wrote, "They're building a dominoes set? WTH? That's not a Vegas act, it's an exhibition for a toy conference." One angry fan wrote, "They let the domino act go through, but they said no to the pool trick shots? I’d much rather see the pool trick shots than a bunch of dominos falling over."

On X, one user wrote, "Tbh anyone can do this. You just need a lot of dominos, a lot of area, and know what you're doing. Anyone can get into dominos if they wanted to." Another person chimed in, "That dominoes act isn’t a Vegas act. I don’t get it."

One person further tweeted, "This dominos act wouldn’t work in Las Vegas if you have to be quiet, can’t clap, and the entire thing will be on the floor. You can watch this online." A fourth user pointed out, "This dominos act will be the act that will take overnight to set up!"
