Simon Cowell’s Las Vegas variety stage show America’s Got Talent Presents… Superstars Live set to end just three months after it was renewed

Is the end of the talent show near?

Simon Cowell’s Las Vegas variety show — America’s Got Talent Presents… Superstars Live — is to close just three months after it was renewed for another year, it can be revealed.

The stage show, which is based at the MGM Luxor Resort in Vegas, ends in May.

It has had a run of more than two years – and one of the prizes on America’s Got Talent was the chance to appear on the show.

Luxor’s owners MGM said in a statement: ‘It has been an honor to partner with the AGT team to bring the talent of one of television’s most exciting competition shows to the Las Vegas Strip, and we hope to work together again in the future.

‘We have loved being home to these world-class entertainers and wish all of these incredible artists the best of luck as they continue their careers. We will proudly cheer them on.’

Major stars from America’s Got Talent headlined the show, including autistic pianist-singer Kodi Lee, dance troupe Light Balance and magician Dustin Tavella.

A Vegas entertainer revealed that some of those involved were ‘stunned’ by the news and had no idea the show was about to end.

The insider said: ‘People had planned their lives and years to stay in Vegas and work on the show.

– Immediately it went well. The weekends were probably the busiest nights, but the influx during the week wasn’t bad.’

But they added: ‘Since January there has been a noticeable decline overall, apart from Superbowl week.’

Simon described landing the show in 2021 as one of the highlights of his career.

He was even awarded the key to the city for his contributions to the Vegas industry.

Sources say the live experience is being “heightened and reimagined” for other cities in the US and around the world.
