LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA: 'America's Got Talent' has been chastised for putting an obscene performance on the show, despite the fact that children were in the audience. Les Beaux Freres, a French-Canadian pair, surprised the judges by performing on stage while wearing only towels.

The 18th season of 'AGT' will premiere on May 30. Terry Crews will return as host, and the judges will be Simon Cowell, Sofia Vergara, Heidi Klum, and Howie Mandel. Sofia was previously left out of the last 'All-Star' Season, leading many to believe she would not return for the regular program. Season 18 will air on NBC at 8/7c and will be available to stream on Peacock. The program is pitching this season as a summer blockbuster. 'AGT' is set to conclude in September, with the 18th champion receiving a $1 million prize.

Is this challenge harder than it seems?

Before the season's debut on Tuesday, May 30, 'AGT' released videos of previous performers. The first performer was Les Beaux Freres, who debuted on the show in 2021. They entered the stage completely clad to announce themselves. When the duo returned to the stage, they were nude and standing behind towels.

The judges laughed when Les Beaux Freres danced and did feats with the towels. At the conclusion, one of the men took the other's towel and raced off the stage, leaving the man who was left on stage to fold over and cover his nakedness. The guy was ultimately given a tiny towel and escorted off the stage. The judges thought the act was hilarious, but the viewers thought it was improper.

'Talentless'

Many viewers raced to the comments when the video was posted on the show's Instagram page. Many people thought it amusing, while others were concerned about the youngsters in the crowd. 'AGT' has a live audience that watches every performance with the judges, and there are frequent youngsters in the show's audience.

One user asked, "Aren’t there kids in the audience?" Another agreed with them, "yes 😮." One person chimed in, "Public Nudity in AGT ☠️." Fans are hoping, "Hopefully Simon has more of a sense of humor this season 🙄🙄🙄🙄 😂😂😂😂." A fourth person simply wrote, "Nope 👎." One user noted, "I didn't laugh." Another user found them, "Talentless." One called them, "Inappropriate." "I thought the same thing," commented another.

'America's Got Talent' Season 18 is coming back with new season 18 episodes on Tuesday, May 30, 2023
