Americas Got Talent

When I first heard about this show, I thought wow an American Idol for variety acts this could be great!
After seeing the first few shows I realised that this show was more of a joke than something to get excited about.
Firstly the judges are just well useless.....apart from the british guy he seems to have a better understanding of talent than the other two.
The show seems to be more about mockery than about true talent. The talent they have chosen to participate apart from a select few exceptional people tends to be just plain weird or stupid.
I decided to research this a little further, and found out that signing up for this show was equivalent to signing your life away to the devil.
Artists beware, this show does not seem to be somewhere you want to be! I know many of us have been contacted to be a part of this show.....The question is, how positive is the exposure and are the contract terms worth that 30 seconds of fame!

Read the posts from performers.net in the link below to see what the performing arts community is saying about this show and how you have to give up all rights to your act and its promotion just to participate....
