Process
Each act that performed in front of the judges was given 90 seconds to demonstrate their talents for the four judges. If an act received at least three "Yes" votes from the judges, they were accepted to the next round. Otherwise, they were eliminated from the competition. Should one of the judges hits the Golden Buzzer on one of the acts, that act will be sent straight to the Quarterfinals.
