America's Got Talent airs in the summer.
One of the many secrets to the success and longevity of America's Got Talent is its fearless drive to reinvent itself, said Meredith Ahr, president, alternative and reality group, NBC Entertainment. The next evolution of the format brings in fresh expert eyes to join Simon and Howie on the panel. Gabrielle and Julianne are two of the most aspirational women in the business, on top of being electric entertainers with talent across disciplines. I am excited to see how their knowledge, compassion and sheer joy enhance the experience for acts and viewers alike.
Ahr added, As their partner in crime, host Terry Crews will continue to light up the stage with his quick wit and unending charm.
