America's Got Talent host Terry Crews revealed the six acts who will be competing in the finals during the live results show that aired Wednesday night on NBC.

The six acts who received the most home viewer votes and will compete to be crowned the winner of America's Got Talent are singer Jessica Sanchez, freestyle rapper Chris Turner, multimedia dance group Light Wire, trapeze duo Sirca Marea, singer Jourdan Blue, and Leo High School Choir.

Jessica had made it to the semifinals of America's Got Talent's first season in 2006 and then competed on American Idol in 2012. She made it to American Idol's Season 11 finale and finished as the runner-up.

The six acts who advanced in the competition from the semifinals will join the four acts who had received Golden Buzzers during their quarterfinals performances.

America's Got Talent judges Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Sofia Vergara and Melanie "Mel B" Brown had awarded live Golden Buzzers to rapper Mama Duke, rapper Micah Palace, musician Steve Ray Ladson, and dance group Team Recycled, which allowed them to skip the semifinals round completely.

Terry announced the results after 11 acts had performed Tuesday night on the America's Got Talent stage.

The five acts who didn't make the cut and were eliminated during Wednesday night's results show were Birmingham Youth Choir, singer-guitarist Bay Melnick Virgolino, acrobatic duo TT Boys, dance group Unreal, and magician Zak Mirz.

The results show featured Terry bringing out two or three acts at a time to break the news.

Terry first sent Jessica Sanchez through to the next round, ousting Birmingham Youth Choir.

Terry then welcomed Unreal and Chris Turner onstage together to reveal that Unreal's time on the show had ended.

In the third round of results, Terry brought Light Wire, Zak Mirz and Sirca Marea out onstage. The third spot in the finals went to Light Wire, but then Terry surprised viewers by revealing Sirca Marea would be moving on as well.

Between Bay Melnick Virgolino and Jourdan Blue, the fifth spot went to Jourdan.

And finally, Terry shared Leo High School Choir's fate when onstage with TT Boys. It turned out America had voted Leo High School Choir through to the finals.

America's Got Talent's finale is set to air on September 23 with a performance show followed by September 24 with a live results show.

America's vote will determine America's Got Talent's Season 20 winner for 2025.
