HOWIE Mandel has been dissed by his co-judges on the most recent live episode of America’s Got Talent.

The group’s mission is to break down barriers between kids and their guardians.

Unfortunately, Howie decided he wasn’t a fan of the intergenerational group tonight.

The 67-year-old hit his buzzer on the group before they were finished performing.

When it came time to hear from the judge’s panel, the host of the show Terry Crews, 55, skipped over Howie and went straight to Simon Cowell, 63.


He said: “I really really like this act because they have a purpose. It’s not an act that just wants to get a few more views on TikTok.”

The former X Factor judge also said that the group has upped their game since their audition.

He then added: “It wasn’t perfect, and it shouldn’t be perfect. It was just fun. I love this act.”

HOWIE’S REBUTTAL

Right after Simon was done speaking, Howie jumped in with his opinion of the group.

The former gameshow host said: “I’m going to be totally honest. I agree with you Simon, this is just fun.”

He also said the group was a great idea for a franchise that could take over Mommy and Me classes.

He then added: “It shouldn’t be a million-dollar show in Vegas. It’s nothing anybody’s going to buy tickets to for a concert.

“But I would take my kids to it.”

At this point, the whole AGT audience started booing Howie.

He was booed so much, that he stood up to yell at the audience, and he was told by Terry and other judges to sit down.

Simon even hit his buzzer to show his displeasure with Howie.

AGREE TO DISAGREE

Fans on X, formerly known as Twitter, shared their opinions of Parent Jam online, and the vote was split.

One said: “Watching @AGT and must confess I agree with @howiemandel about #parentjam – and @heidiklum made his point for him when she agreed she wanted to do that with her kids, not necessary but tickets to a show!”

Another said: “Yes! @howiemandel #AGT Yes! As usual, we agree with Howie. Parent Jam it’s not a $1million act, but you had a great idea for them – start a franchise.”

A third added: “@AGT Howie … Vegas could use more family-friendly options. @phil_wright_ The ParentJam is definitely a solid contestant in that segment.”


Someone else said: “I’m glad Simon gave Howie an X did he wake up on the wrong side of the bed? America please vote for the Parent Jam.”

A fifth said: “Please give Howie some chill pills. Parent Jam is AMAZING and Yes I would buy a ticket to watch.”
