NBC's hit talent competition continues on Tuesday with the second week of season 16 auditions!
America's Got Talent returned to TV on Tuesday for the second night of auditions, and the competition continues to shine bigger and brighter than ever! ET is following along throughout the two-hour episode to break down all the best, biggest and most surprising moments.
Simon Cowell is back in his seat behind the judges' table after missing the second half of the last season due to injury, and is weighing in with his unique voice alongside returning judges Howie Mandel, Sofia Vergara and Heidi Klum.
Meanwhile, a whole slew of new acts are risking life and limb for a shot at moving on to the next round of competition or maybe the coveted Golden Buzzer. Last week, in the season premiere, the Golden Buzzer went to a choir made up of frontline medical workers -- who knows what kind of inspiring act will earn it this evening?
The fun kicks off 8 p.m. ET/PT on NBC, and you can watch along with ET for a look at all the acts who gave it their best shot during week two of America's Got Talent.
ET recently spoke with Cowell, Klum and Vergara ahead of the premiere, and the trio opened up about what makes this season of AGT something really special.
"I think, you know, coming out of that year we had, you know, this is one of those shows where how the contestants are is almost a reflection of what people are going through, and you could think that people are going to be very despondent and very gloomy but actually it was the opposite," Cowell shared. "They come out with a lot more energy, strength and [happiness]."
"They're happy to be out of the house," Klum added. "You can definitely see that everyone, in the last year, has been doing a lot of things at home trying to figure out new acts, working on their acts."
