Simon Cowell's Buzzer Battle on AGT

On the latest episode of America's Got Talent, a playful moment unfolded between judges Simon Cowell and Howie Mandel during the performance of the Japanese dance group Airfootworks. As Cowell attempted to push Mandel's designated Golden Buzzer, he humorously declared he was about to get himself fired. However, Mandel quickly pressed the buzzer first, securing Airfootworks a spot in the finals. The crowd cheered as both judges engaged in lighthearted banter about who deserved credit for the buzzer. Cowell acknowledged the group's impressive performance, stating it exemplified what the show is about: discovering world-class talent. This incident follows Cowell's recent move to grant more Golden Buzzers than ever this season, adding to the competitive dynamics of the show.
