Tom Sandoval Responds to Simon Cowell's Rejection on America's Got Talent

Reality TV star Tom Sandoval appeared on America's Got Talent with his band The Most Extras, performing a jazz cover of The Weeknd's 'Blinding Lights'. The performance didn't go as planned, with Simon Cowell hitting his buzzer halfway through. In a subsequent interview, Sandoval acknowledged the performance had issues.

He explained that he was dealing with inner-ear monitor problems that made him feel like he was performing blindly. He admitted he was trying to balance too many elements - singing, choreography, and stage presence - which affected his vocal performance.

Despite the criticism, Sandoval viewed the experience positively as a learning opportunity to improve his entertainment skills.
