We all love the emotional Golden Buzzer moments of America’s Got Talent when one of the judges or host is impressed by the performance and press the Golden Buzzer. A contestant who receives Golden Buzzer is moved directly to the live shows. Each of the judges and hosts can press Golden Buzzer once in each season and during the initial audition period. The Golden Buzzer was introduced in Season 9, and viewers just love it. Five out of six AGT winners were Golden Buzzers since its introduction.
