America's Got Talent (season 11)[edit]

For the first time in the site's history, the male villains will choose as many female contestants from the female moderators as possible in addition to one of their own male flex picks and Vote for the Worst picks on America's Got Talent. Any female contestant the female moderator would have supported had she been allowed to participate on Got Talent would be used as her own flex picks on The Voice or Dancing with the Stars.

For the first time since 2014, two female moderators, Kathi & Karly and Holly & Perri participate even though the female moderators are not allowed to participate on America's Got Talent unless a Moderator's Challenge is successful.

Fifty Vote for the Girls picks and flex picks were supported by the villains. Thia Tola scored ten flex picks against Holly & Perri's six, giving the purple team a 26-24 win.

During the August 23, 2016 episode of America's Got Talent, Kathi Jameson made the puzzling discovery that Laura Betran had won the sixth season of Romanii au Talent, supporting her Moderator's Challenge claim, as is Holly & Perri's, whose Moderator's Challenge of Blake Vogt previously appeared on Penn & Teller: Fool Us, and Swaringen's final picks of Sal Valentinetti and Linkin' Bridge, respectively been a candidate for elimination. But when Delagatto, who had a record of 4-1 on AGT11, was called on to present his Villains Picks, a producer reveals to Zinn that he'd made an egregious mistake: he'd actually chosen Laura Bretan as his Villains pick rather than rather than his own. Although the producer and Zinn believe Delagatto's mistake was an honest one, Zinn emphasizes the need to maintain the site's integrity, and Bill is immediately disqualified as Bretan won the Romanian version of Got Talent (Romanii au Talent) five days after Bretan's America's Got Talent audition aired, a rule in the site that's heavily stressed. As a result of Delagatto's disqualification, all of Bill Delagatto's remaining picks were flexed out and ending his season.

With the elimination of Moya Angela on August 3 and subsequent picks of Sal Valentinetti and Linkin' Bridge, Glenn Swaringen no longer have any remaining supported contestants on his team.

With the elimination of Julia Scotti on August 24 and subsequent picks of Lori Mae Hernandez and Calysta Bevier, Archibald Coolranch no longer have any remaining supported contestants on his team, thus ending his two season AGT win streak.
