When it comes to dance performances on 'America's Got Talent', it's all about chemistry and skill. For Stefanny Moreno and Yeeremy Lugo from Columbia, they were all set to show the judges what they were made of. Hailing from Columbia, the duo explained that they met because Stefanny was once Yeeremy's dance teacher. Now, seeing that they were on the 'AGT' stage, they wanted to dedicate their performance to fellow Columbian, Sofia Vergara.

So far, duo acts like Duo Rings and Duo Forza impressed the judges. Now, it was Stefanny and Yeeremy to prove their worth, in order to advance forward. Here's how they performed!

Stefanny and Yeeremy took to the stage and put up a stunning salsa performance that even had Sofia up on her feet dancing. When it came to the judging process, Simon noted that their act had it all, personality, showmanship, originality and more. So it came as no surprise that they bagged three yeses, as fans praised their performance. "That dance was so intense it almost felt violent. And I liked it. #AGT," said a fan. "That salsa dance act was hot I loved it #AGT," added another. "Everything was happening so fast and this was probably one of the best dance acts I’ve seen this year. #AGT," wrote a fan.



 



 



 

But, the act aside, fans couldn't help but call out the duo's translator, who seemed to keep interrupting Sofia when she was talking. "What the interpreter wanted to say to Sofia: Hey Sofia maybe you wanna go ahead shut your god damn mouth? I’m the interpreter here. Not you. I’ve dedicated my life to a stupid profession that is rarely needed. #AGT," tweeted a fan. "This interpreter thing is really awkward….. lol. #AGT," added another. "Sofia being a better interpreter. #AGT," added another.
