Summary With four more spots in the semifinals up for grabs, the 12 performers who showed their stuff on Tuesday nights episode of Americas Got Talent waited on Wednesday night to see which of them would move on, and which would go home.

Howie cracked some jokes about the wow factor and said that while he didnt have another word for wow other than wow, he does spell it backwards. He and Piers Morgan then got into another verbal duel about Piers besmirching of him on Tuesday night.

To the results: After a couple of minutes of filler, host Nick Cannon called the first three acts to the stage for their results: The South Philly Vikings, CJ Dippa and Haspop. The act moving on to the next round is ... Haspop. Howie said America made the right decision, saying that Haspop is raw, great talent. He said CJ Dippa has a future and will be a star, but if youre looking at raw talent, Haspop has it.

Be our guest: The JabbawockeeZ, who competed in Season 2, paid a visit to promote their Las Vegas show at the MGM Grand. Later, Mike Posner performed his hit, Cooler Than Me.:

Back to the results: The next three acts to hear their results were Chipps Cooney, Studio One Young Beasts Society and Polina Volcek. The act moving on to the next round was Studio One Young Beasts Society. Piers, who was none-too-sad to see Chipps gone, said the dance crew had the talent and drive to succeed.

Nick next called for The Strange Familiar, Debra Romer and Luigi. Piers said Debra was gutsy, but noted that the singing wasnt as good when he watched her performance back on television as it seemed live. Nonetheless, the third act of the night moving into the next round was Debra Romer. Sharon said, as she does every week, that America always gets it right, and said well be seeing a lot more of Debra.

Finally, it came down to Harmonica Pierre, Kaya and Sadie, and Jeremy VanSchoonhoven. The first of the three eliminated was Harmonica Pierre, leaving the decision up to the judges as to whether the belly dancers or the bike trickster would continue in the competition.

Sharon went first. She said she wanted to put everyone through. She told the belly dancers they were beautiful and great at what they do. She called Jeremy dangerous and exciting. She voted for Jeremy.

Piers said that under normal circumstances, hed choose belly dancers in about three seconds over a trick cyclist. But he said Jeremy opened his eyes to how exciting his craft could be. The dancers, too, were really, really good. He said he had to go with the act that he could see being a million-dollar act in Vegas. He gave his vote to Jeremy. That meant he was going to the semifinals.

Howie didnt get to vote, but said, I think Jeremy should go to Vegas and Kaya and Sadie should come to my house!
