After nearly four months of competition,\u00a0<\/span>America’s Got Talent<\/em><\/a>\u00a0has crowned a season 18 champion!<\/span><\/p>\n

It all came down to <\/span>the Top 11 on Wednesday<\/a> — which included singers, a stand-up comedian, a young magician, three dance crews, two choirs, and a record-setting total of five Golden Buzzer winners — all of whom beat the odds to make it this far.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, only one could win the grand prize of $1 million and a special stage show at the Luxor in\u00a0Las Vegas.<\/span><\/p>\n

After a fun night of big celebrity cameos and memorable performances — which took up the majority of the first hour of the big two-hour finale —\u00a0host <\/span>Terry Crews<\/a> had the unenviable task of revealing the first results of the night, and slashing the Top 11 down to the Top 5.<\/span><\/p>\n

The\u00a0acts to make the Top 5 included the\u00a0acrobatic duo the\u00a0Ramadhani Brothers, the singer and pianist Putri Ariani, the trained dog act known as Adrian Stoica and Hurricane, magician Anna DeGuzman and the flawless dance group Murmuration.<\/span><\/p>\n

Which meant we had to bid farewell to the talented songstress Lavender Carcangelo, the dance group Chibi Unity, comedian\u00a0Ahren Belisle, the\u00a082nd Airborne Chorus, the Mzansi Youth Choir and the experimental dance crew\u00a0Avantgardey.<\/span><\/p>\n

After the Ramadhani Brothers came in 5th place, and Putri Ariani ended up coming in 4th, the whole season came down to Murmuration, Stoica and DeGuzman!<\/span><\/p>\n

In one of the biggest upsets imaginable, the odds-on favorites to win, Murmuration, wound up in third place, leaving the judges absolutely shocked.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mandel — who gave Murmuration his Golden Buzzer during the audition rounds, was nearly at a loss for words, telling the group, “You know how much I\u00a0love you. Your act, in my heart, is the best\u00a0thing I have seen this season.\u00a0I love what you do and I think\u00a0you guys are just amazing.\u00a0I don’t know what to say.”<\/span><\/p>\n

This meant the whole season came down to the 24-year-old magician and an impressive dog act. Finally, after all the votes were counted, Crews announced the season’s grand champion…<\/span><\/p>\n

…\u00a0and the winner is <\/span>Adrian Stoica and Hurricane! <\/span><\/strong>Meaning the magical DeGuzman was the season’s runner-up.<\/span><\/p>\n

This marks only the second time an animal act has earned the grand prize after\u00a0Olate Dogs were crowned the champs all the way back in Season 7.<\/span><\/p>\n

Congrats to the season 18 champions!<\/span><\/p>\n
