America’s Got Talent Producer Adam Davis joins Kristen in studio with the inside scoop on their upcoming Philly auditions. Apparently, the show loved Philadelphia Eagle Jon Dorenbos so much this year in Season 11 that they are heading to Philadelphia in January of this year in hopes of casting America’s next big star.  Auditions for America’s Got Talent Season 12 will take place Saturday, January 14th at the PA Convention Center. Dust off your old trumpet, brush up on your dance moves, then show up January 14th and show the AGT producers what you’ve got! The audition footage and new Season 12 of America’s Got Talent will kick off early next summer, and will hopefully feature many of our most talented Philadelphians!
