The AGT star stopped to explain his fashion choice as he walked down the carpet of America’s Got Talent Fantasy League on Wednesday, November 15 in Los Angeles.

Pointing to his red-tinted sunglasses, Simon explained: “Everything looks better,” and joked, “You look amazing.”

“And you know what, it cuts out all the blue light on computers and iPads.

“I have lights in my face when I am filming so this cuts out a lot of that.”

MEL ON THE BLOCK!

For the upcoming spinoff, Mel is replacing Sofia Vergara on the judges’ panel.

When asked about the latest addition to the AGT team, Simon confessed: “You know what Mel’s like, I mean, she’s very unpredictable, very competitive.

“However, that was part of the reason why I was excited that she was going to come on the show.”

He explained: “I mean, Sofia, we did ask her, but she couldn’t do it. And when we spoke about who would be the best fourth judge, everyone said, Mel.

“She’s a lot of fun and she’s really smart. She did such a great job with the Spice Girls and you don’t know what to expect with her.

“So it’s going to be interesting.”

FANTASY LEAGUE

AGT: Fantasy League is a spinoff of the favorite reality competition show and is similar to a fantasy sports draft.

The judges will each choose a roster of their favorite acts picking from winners, finalists, viral sensations, and fan favorites from America’s Got Talent and Got Talent franchises around the world.

For the first time in show history, the judges will be competing alongside the contestants and will guide the acts throughout the competition with the hopes of earning bragging rights and seeing an act from their team crowned the champion of AGT: Fantasy League.

The judges will fill their fantasy teams with 10 show-stopping acts compiled from singers, dancers, ventriloquists, comedians, aerialists, magicians, and more.

The Golden Buzzer will be back with a twist, as each judge can use the buzzer to send their own act straight to the finals or to take an act from another judge’s team.

America’s audience will vote each week to determine which acts will advance to the finals and which judge will earn bragging rights as their act is crowned the AGT: Fantasy League champion.
