Mary and Tyce of Duo Transcend bring athleticism, dance and danger to America’s Got Talent: The Champions (AGT 2020) Finals when they performed their scary aerial act on the trapeze, with both of them wearing blindfolds. The duo performed their scariest act yet to the song “I Ran” by Hidden Citizens.
The judges Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel, and Alesha Dixon as well as the audience were holding their breath as the acrobatic duo performed on stage. Most members of the audience as well as the judges gave Duo Transcend a well-deserved standing ovation for their brilliantly executed trapeze routine.
The winner of the AGT Champions 2020 will be announced on The Champions Results Finale which will air on February 17, 2020.
Act: Trapeze Duo
Got Talent history: (America’s Got Talent) AGT: 13 – Finalist
Result: TBA
Duo Transcend (Mary Wolfe-Nielsen and Tyce Nielsen) are married performers from Salt Lake City, Utah, who specialize in duo trapeze, aerial silk, tramp wall, diving, and acting. They have been married for six years and met while performing as high divers in a show. They have a two-year-old son named Jaxx. Tyce has an eye condition that he’s been waiting to get surgery for. According to him, he has “really bad eyesight”. Although his doctors have advised them to discontinue the act, Tyce says “We relied on the feeling and the connection between each other”.
During the preliminary round in AGT Champions 2020, Tyce said that an eye surgeon reached out to them and performed a procedure which stopped the progression of his eye disease. He said that as a result of the surgery, he will no longer go completely blind.
The couple’s audition on America’s Got Talent initially consisted of performing an aerial trapeze routine to RAIGN’s “Wicked Game”. Although Mel B voted “No”, stating she was not “wowed” by Duo Transcend’s performance, Howie Mandel, Heidi Klum, and Simon Cowell voted “Yes”, sending the pair to the Judge Cuts. Duo Transcend’s Judge Cuts performance consisted of performing an aerial trapeze routine, now incorporating fire. As the duo attempted to finish their performance with Tyce blindfolding himself, he was unable to catch his partner Mary, causing her to plunge down onto a safety mat on the floor. Fortunately, she was not seriously injured by her fall and was able to stand up on her own. Howie Mandel, Mel B, Heidi Klum, Simon Cowell, and guest judge Ken Jeong all gave them standing ovations, although they also advised against the duo’s request to re-execute the unsuccessful part of their act. Their performance was strong enough for the judges to send them to the Quarterfinals along with Aaron Crow.
The acrobatic duo finished in the Bottom 5 of the Top 10 of Season 13 of America’s Got Talent. Following that, they have had the opportunity to travel and share their talent with millions around the world.
Like the rest of the contenders in AGT Champions 2020, Duo Transcend is hoping to win the talent-packed competition.
America’s Got Talent: The Champions (Season 2) is a spin-off of America’s Got Talent (also known as AGT), a televised American talent show competition, created by Simon Cowell. Produced by Fremantle for the NBC TV network, the show first premiered on January 7, 2019. It functions similar to AGT, but involves a variety of participants taken from across both AGT and the Got Talent franchise – including winners, finalists, live round participants and other entries – who compete against each other to secure a place in a grand final, in which the winner receives a cash prize and the title of America’s chosen “World Champion” within Got Talent.
AGT Champions returns for a second season featuring a star-studded panel of judges, including Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel and the newest addition – singer, songwriter and author Alesha Dixon. Terry Crews returns as host of America’s Got Talent: The Champions.
