America’s Got Talent will be returning to NBC for its milestone season 20, but many fans were shocked to find that one of their favorite judges would not be part of the season. Is Heidi Klum coming back as a judge?

Heidi Klum is departing the show, with former judge Mel B returning to take Klum’s place alongside fellow judges Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel and Sofia Vergara and host Terry Crews. Mel B previously was a judge on the NBC series from 2013-18 and on spinoff AGT: Fantasy League in 2024.

Mel B will return to the judge’s table on Season 20 of “America’s Got Talent,” which debuts Tuesday, May 27 at 8 p.m. on NBC. The former Spice Girl will replace Heidi Klum, who exits the series after 11 nonconsecutive seasons.
