The latest episode of NBC's America's Got Talent brings drama and excitement with Simon Cowell's Golden Buzzer controversy and heartwarming performances from contestants.

AceShowbiz - In an intense moment during the Monday, August 20 episode of "America's Got Talent", Simon Cowell and Howie Mandel engaged in a playful feud over AIRFOOTWORKS' mesmerizing dance routine. After the group's performance left judges and audience alike spellbound, Cowell reached over and hit the Golden Buzzer, despite it being Howie's turn to press the buzzer.

Chaos ensued as Cowell tried to claim credit for the Golden Buzzer, while Howie insisted it was his. Terry Crews, the host, clarified that the Golden Buzzer belonged to Howie, but the moment provided comic relief.

Before their show-stopping performance, AIRFOOTWORKS founder Takashi Jonishi revealed that his unique dance style emerged from a back injury he sustained. The group's aspirations are high as they now head straight to the "America's Got Talent" finals, joining Hakuna Matata Acrobatics, who earned Sofia Vergara's Live Show Golden Buzzer last week.

Meanwhile, the Top 44 competitors took the stage for Week 2 of the Quarterfinals, competing for votes to advance to the Semi-finals. Performances ranged from the fiery dance moves of Argentinian group Legion to the mesmerizing magic of Young-Min. Alex Sampson showcased his retro singing skills, while Bboy Samuka's inspirational dance performance drew praise from the judges.

Other notable acts included Brooke Bailey's powerful vocal performance, Sky Elements' spectacular drone show, and Biko's Manna's uplifting African music. Despite receiving a Golden Buzzer from SofĂ­a Vergara, Schumacher's silly act failed to impress the judges. Ashlee Montague showcased her daring bottle-walking skills, while NiNi's unique musical talent earned her high marks.

As the Quarterfinals continue, the competition intensifies with contestants vying for America's votes to reach the "AGT" finals. Stay tuned for more exciting performances and surprises in the weeks to come.
