Simon’s US version of Britain’s Got Talent is going into its 14th season.

Meridith Ahr, president of alternative and reality at NBC Entertainment, told the site: “One of the many secrets to the success and longevity of America’s Got Talent is its fearless drive to reinvent itself.

“The next evolution of the format brings in fresh expert eyes to join Simon and Howie on the panel. Gabrielle and Julianne are two of the most aspirational women in the business, on top of being electric entertainers with talent across disciplines.

“I am excited to see how their knowledge, compassion and sheer joy enhance the experience for acts and viewers alike. As their partner in crime, host Terry Crews will continue to light up the stage with his quick wit and unending charm.”

They said: “She absolutely was not sacked. The big thing for Melanie this year is the Spice Girls tour. She’s completely focused on it and has rehearsal and tour commitments in the UK up until May which sadly causes a lot of clashes with the AGT schedule. She remains very much part of the AGT family.”

Trish Kinane, president of entertainment programming for Fremantle North America, which co-produces the show with Syco Entertainment, said: “Our millions of longtime viewers have already embraced Terry as the host of AGT: The Champions, and we are excited to welcome Gabrielle and Julianne to the AGT family.

“They are ready to bring a new level of expertise, energy, entertainment and fun to our judging panel.”
