Simon Cowell broke down in tears during Tuesday's premiere of America's Got Talent when the Mzansi Youth Choir sang Nightbirde's "It's OK." Cowell, who had given Nightbirde his Golden Buzzer before she withdrew from the competition due to cancer, teared up as the audience chanted for the Golden Buzzer. Cowell said the choir's performance brought back memories and how much Nightbirde would have appreciated it.
Eventually, the judges awarded the Golden Buzzer to the choir, prompting tears and hugs from the choir members. The season 18 premiere of America's Got Talent also featured a diverse range of performances, including music, comedy, and acrobatics.
