According to America’s Got Talent, Tom Sandoval is way more than just a reality TV star.

During the Tuesday, June 24, episode of NBC’s competition show, viewers were able to watch Tom Sandoval and the Most Extra’s full audition from beginning to end for the very first time.

“You made me smile,” Mel B said of the Vanderpump Rules alum’s performance  as the judges began offering their candid feedback. “You gave me happy vibes, and apart from that song being one of my favorite songs, you all look like you’re fully enjoying yourselves.”

The Spice Girls member was so impressed that she joked about needing a cover band at her upcoming wedding to Rory McPhee.

America was reminded of Sofía Vergara’s relationship status as she judged more wild and crazy America’s Got Talent auditions. During the Tuesday, June 17, episode of NBC’s reality show, Sofía, Howie Mandel, Simon Cowell and Mel B were introduced to a perch act made up of circus performers Tobias Wolfgang and Vanesa Martinez. “I’m guessing […]

“Hell yeah,” Tom, 42, replied. “We are so down.”

Howie Mandel praised the frontman for being a “showman” on stage and taking his cover band seriously. As for Sofía Vergara, she applauded the group’s energy before turning her attention to the lead singer.

“Tom, you look amazing up there,” she commented. “You guys brought us joy tonight.”

Last but certainly not least, Simon Cowell had the opportunity to share his honest review of the audition. Even though he is friends with Tom’s former boss, Lisa Vanderpump, the judge promised to be nonpartial.

“For me, the vocals weren’t great, Tom. I’m going to be honest with you,” he began. “However, not everyone comes on this show to get a record deal. Sometimes, it’s about being true to who you are. I’m going to say yes.”

With four yes votes from the judges, Tom Sandoval and the Most Extras moved on to the next round of competition, getting one step closer to winning the $1 million prize.

“It means so much to me seeing all these people coming from different places that come together and they were happy and cheering for us and rooting for us,” Tom told host Terry Crews after performing a rendition of A-ha’s “Take On Me” single. “That means so much.”

At the beginning of his audition, Tom briefly addressed the “Scandoval” drama that unfolded on Vanderpump Rules after he cheated on his then-girlfriend Ariana Madix with friend Rachel Leviss.

America’s Got Talent is kicking off season 20 with an unforgettable audition. During the season premiere on Tuesday, May 27, viewers at home were introduced to aspiring singer Jourdan Blue. “In my teenage years, I got down the wrong path, and I got kicked out of school. I got myself into some trouble and ended […]

While Tom acknowledged he once was one of the “most hated” men in America, Mel B said she didn’t care about his past.

“I don’t give a f*** about his scandal,” she admitted after the audition. “Who cares? I liked it because I’m cheesy.”
