 Well that is odd. Either 2 acts lied or she was telling that after 2 acts had already gone on. I have a third possibility: we overestimated the acts that would actually be appearing tonight, and we looked into the teasers a little too hard. 18 was the number on the production docs, so... 18 is what the docs said, but some of the acts listed as backups are confirmed to be competing so I presume they just added two backups to each week or something.
