NBC’s found the replacement for departing America’s Got Talent judge Sharon Osbourne. Former Spice Girl Melanie Brown will take a seat alongside Howie Mandel and Howard Stern on the eighth season of the talent competition. This upcoming appearance as a judge on AGT won’t be Mel B’s first time judging talent. She did two seasons of judging on Australia’s The X Factor, and she also co-hosted Australia’s Dancing With the Stars for one season.
Confirming her participation, Mel B stated: “I’m thrilled to be part of this season of America’s Got Talent and to get to work with Howie and Howard. It’s so exciting to be bringing some Girl Power to the panel!”
“This exciting addition of the dynamic Mel B to our lineup of judges promises that fans will see a strong, talented and opinionated woman match up against our equally outspoken judges Howard Stern and Howie Mandel,” said Paul Telegdy, President, Alternative and Late Night Programming.. “Her presence has powder-keg potential for lots of fireworks this summer as the #1-rated America’s Got Talent will return with even bigger and more exotic acts than any year before.”
Submissions to be considered as a season eight contestant are still being accepted at www.agtauditions.com.
