As the audition episodes wrapped up for season 13 of America's Got Talent, fans watched with bated breath wondering if judge Heidi Klum was going to finally use her golden buzzer pick. It turns out, the choice was easy for the supermodel after 15-year-old singer Makayla Phillips won her over with a booming performance of Demi Lovato's "Warrior."

Seconds into Makayla hitting the first few notes, the crowd began cheering her on and Simon Cowell and Heidi Klum couldn't help but exchange smiles. Minutes later, the audition concluded with the entire auditorium erupting in applause. Amazed by her talent, Heidi promptly stood up to give the 15-year-old a standing ovation.

@MakaylaPhillips what pure, phenomenal talent! Your voice is beautiful 🌟 — Nαtαshα (@NatashaAzalee) July 11, 2018

But then, Heidi Klum took things to the next level and dramatically slammed her hand on the golden buzzer. From that moment on, fan reactions became quite mixed. While everyone seemingly agreed that Makayla is super-talented, many folks seemed a bit peeved that Heidi's pick went to a singer.

@AGT 4 out 5 golden buzzers were singers.... so disappointing. There are so many shows for singers and none for other talents.... 🙄 — Amy Herman (@aherms12) July 11, 2018

Another singer yet gets the Golden Buzzer



Come on.. I'm tired of singers getting the Golden Buzzer



I can't disagree from the fact that the ones that got it are really brilliant and outstanding singers but I feel there are other acts that deserve it more!#AGT #GoldenBuzzer — Aashan アニメアート(Commissions Open) (@AashanAnimeArt) July 11, 2018

@AGT needs to make a rule for next year...NO SINGER GOLDEN BUZZERS!!! There’s plenty of singing shows give us something different!! #AGT — Mickey Piotrowski (@CardsInCamo7) July 11, 2018

As some Tweeters rightfully pointed out above, four out of the five acts that were given the golden buzzer were singing acts. This year, Simon Cowell picked vocalist Michael Ketterer, Howie Mandel opted for 13-year-old Courtney Hadwin, and Mel B selected singer Amanda Mena. Tyra Banks, the host of the show, was the only person to pick a non-singing act when she gave it to the aerial dance group Zurcaroh.

Regardless of the golden buzzer picks this year, we're sure that the competition will level out as the weeks go on. Although AGT's winners list over the years is primarily made up of singers, the show has had its share of dancers, ventriloquists, and dog trick champions (remember Olate Dogs?). All the more reason to keep tuning in and vote for your favorite when the live shows begin!

America’s Got Talent airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. EST on NBC.
