With immaculate synchronisation, the team managed to effortlessly pull off a seamless dance performance as 30 women “danced as one”, in the words of the actress and judge, Sophia Vergara.
All four judges including Vergara, Simon Cowell Heidi Klum and Howie Mandel gave the dancers a standing ovation to congratulate them for their award-winning finale performance.
They wowed the judges and audience during the finale as each element was carefully considered including the sparkling globes of light and white feathered outfits.
Even Cowell’s critique-driven nature translated into a positive remark after the performance ended as it was beyond “astonishing” for him.
