Kristen, age 19, got her start in music by singing on social media while making smoothies in her Texas home. Her performance on the live stage of Miley Cyrus and Mark Ronson's "Nothing Breaks Like a Heart" sparked a disagreement at the judges' table, with Simon Cowell saying she "chose the wrong song" and Heidi Klum declaring her to be "ferocious." America voted Kristen into their Top 5 of that week, but she failed to make the cut and was eliminated.
Because of the new format change for Season 17, only two acts each week advanced to the finale, while nine went home. The pair of contestants who earned the most support from America this week were pole dancer/animator Kristy Sellars and Lebanese dance group Mayyas.
Those two top vote-getters joined the eight others who advanced from previous weeks: saxophonist Avery Dixon, singer Drake Milligan, singing trio Chapel Hart, magician Yu Hojin, singer Sara James, magician Nicolas RIBS, artificial intelligence act Metaphysic and stand-up comedian Mike E. Winfield.
In addition, an 11th finalist was chosen by social media users on Wednesday night during the instant save wildcard vote: ventriloquist Celia Munoz. Find out who wins "America's Got Talent" Season 17 when the finale takes place September 13 (performance show) and September 14 (results show) on NBC.
