February 11, 2019 by Marisa Roffman
AMERICA’S GOT TALENT will have a judging shakeup when the show returns for its 14th season: Gabrielle Union and Julianne Hough have joined the reality competition, while Mel B and Heidi Klum have exited.
Additionally, Terry Crews, who has hosted AMERICA’S GOT TALENT: THE CHAMPIONS this winter, will emcee the mothership starting this 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, in a statement. “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.”
“Our millions of longtime viewers have already embraced Terry as the host of AGT: THE CHAMPIONS, and we are excited to welcome Gabrielle and Julianne to the AGT family,” said Trish Kinane, President of Entertainment Programming, Fremantle North America. “They are ready to bring a new level of expertise, energy, entertainment and fun to our judging panel.”
