"America's Got Talent": Klum Not on Board for 20th Season

The network NBC has now announced the cast for the 20th season, which starts at the end of May. British ex-Spice Girl Mel B (49) is returning as a judge. Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, and Sofia Vergara are back on board, along with host Terry Crews.

"America's Got Talent" with Mel B

Mel B was already a member of the jury alongside Klum from 2013 to 2018. Both left after the 13th season, but Klum rejoined the team from the 15th season. In the show of the US broadcaster NBC, comparable to the German version "Das Supertalent", the judges give their verdict on the talents of the applicants. In January, it was announced that Klum would return as the host of the US talent show "Project Runway". The US broadcaster Freeform announced this, without giving a specific date. The 21st season is expected to air later this year.

Klum's Departure in 2018

Klum left "Project Runway" in September 2018 after 16 seasons as a host, along with fashion consultant Tim Gunn. The duo then launched their joint reality fashion show "Making the Cut" on the streaming service Amazon Prime Video, which ran until 2022. In it, the creations of up-and-coming designers were evaluated.

The designer casting series "Project Runway" also revolves around young fashion designers who have to convince a jury with their outfits. After the departure of Klum and Gunn, US model Karlie Kloss and US designer Christian Siriano stepped in as hosts. In Germany, Klum has been successful since 2006 with her casting show "Germany's Next Topmodel" (GNTM) on ProSieben.
