Who receives Mel B's golden buzzer? 'AGT: Fantasy League' judge steals Simon Cowell's contestant after their 'most dangerous' act
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: The roller skating sibling duo Billy and Emily England received Mel B's golden buzzer in 'AGT: Fantasy League'. The duo were in Simon Cowell's team but Mel B pushed the buzzer and stole them after their "most dangerous" act.
During the act, Billy lifted Emily and spun around while having roller-skaters on. However, that was just the beginning of their performance.
Billy and Emily then added flaming knives to their skates. At one point, Emily lifted her leg close to Billy's face, which left the judges terrified.
Billy and Emily's performance was loved by the judges, especially Mel B. She complimented the sibling duo, "Can I just say this was spectacular... I was—"
Mel B then asked Simon, "And you really liked this act, don't you?" Simon agreed with Mel B and noted that he loved the performance.
However, Mel B pushed the buzzer, leaving Simon disappointed. Notably, Mel B wasn't the only one who was excited to have a new dream team.
Emily, recalling her childhood dream, noted, "11-year-old Emily wanted to be on Mel B's team." The contestant claimed that she was excited to join Mel B's team but Simon was quite "upset" and felt like he was "being dumped."

Billy and Emily England receive standing ovation
Billy and Emily England's act received a standing ovation from 'AGT: Fantasy League' judges Mel B, Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, and Howie Mandel. The sibling duo's performance was loved by the audience as well and they also gave the two a standing ovation to honor them.
Billy and Emily's mentor Simon commented, "I honestly feel this is what the show is all about." Meanwhile, Howie called the duo's performance the "most dangerous."
Howie complimented Emily and Billy noting, "Simon is very lucky to have to in his squad I have gotta say that this is one of the most dangerous, exciting, standout acts we ever had in Got Talent history."

Billy and Emily England reflect on their skating journey
Billy and Emily England reflected on their roller-skating journey just ahead of their performance in 'AGT: Fantasy League'. Billy revealed that they started skating when they were five years old and "have been mastering ever since."
He shared, "We started roller skating together all day and all night." He then recalled his time on 'America's Got Talent' Season 12 and noted that when they first appeared on the ABC show, there were just struggling skaters.
The roller-skating sibling duo wanted to win the competition. However, they were eliminated in the semi-finals, much like their fate in 'Britain's Got Talent' Season 9. Billy broke down while recalling their loss on 'AGT' in 2017.
Emily noted, "It was terrible for us but from super-low, we went to like a super high." However, now the duo aims to win the spinoff competition and perform tricks that they have not done before.
Just ahead of their performance, Emily noted, "We are scared and maybe we have pushed too far because the danger's gonna be so high."
'AGT: Fantasy League' airs every Monday at 10 pm ET on ABC.
