9x23: Top 12 (Results) recap: The special guest that performed on the show tonight was Season 5 runner-up 14 year-old singer “Jackie Evancho”. We also saw “The Muppets” as Miss Piggy sang the big hit song by “The Weather Girls” in “It’s Raining Men” with Mel B & Heidi Klum. After their performance then Nick Cannon revealed what 3 acts were in trouble and could be going home and told the home audience that they had 30 minutes to save one of these 3 acts. They had to go to GOOGLE and that they could only vote one time for each GOOGLE account. The 3 acts that were announced as being in jeopardy of being sent home in no particular order were:

1. Emil and Dariel – Cellists
2. Miguel Dakota – Singer & guitarist (without his guitar again last night)

The following 5 acts were voted into the Final round which is the Top 6 next week by the home audience in the order that they were announced:

1. Emily West – Singer

3. Quintavious Johnson – Singer (12 years old)
4. Mat Franco - Close-up magician
5. Sons of Serendip – Band of 4 members (This act was saved by the extra voting with the “Snapple Save”)

The Judges selected the 6th and final act, which was between Emil and Dariel & Miguel Dakota. Heidi & Mel B bother voted & selected Emil and Dariel, Howie & Howard voted & selected Miguel Dakota. Since the 2 acts were tied with 2 votes each they had to go by the act that had received the most votes by the home viewers. Nick was handed a card and opened it up and revealed that Miguel Dakota had received more votes between the 2 acts and became the 6th and final act to move onto the finals. On next Tuesday’s night’s episode the final 6 acts will be performing in an attempt to become the winner of Season 6 & the $1 Million Dollars. Special guests scheduled to perform on next Wednesday night’s Finale will be “Ed Sheeran”, “Jennifer Hudson”, “Lenny Kravitz”, “Pitbull”, “Train”, and “The Rockettes”... read more.
