Wild Card Act
During the fifth and final week of the semifinals 11 acts took to the stage and America's Got Talent fans then voted for their top two favorite acts to go through to the finals, which were Mayyas and Kristy Sellars.
The judges then had the opportunity to choose a Wild Card act to take the 11th, and final, spot on the finale lineup.
On the September 7 episode of AGT Cowell, Vergara, Mandel and Klum had to each select a choice to put forward for the vote, choosing only from the group of semifinal acts that hadn't make it through to the next stage.
The NFL Players Choir were chosen by Cowell, Vergara chose Celia Muñoz, Klum picked her Golden Buzzer act from the auditions, Lily Meola, and Mandel picked Don McMillan.
The Wild Card winner was chosen by a quick vote called the "Instant Save" and the winner was Celia Muñoz.
The ventriloquist wowed in her original audition and came in third place during her semifinals week.
Now, after winning the Wild Card, Muñoz will join the other 10 previously-mentioned finalists in the grand finale of America's Got Talent Season 17.
