Simon is known as the cold-hearted judge on America’s Got Talent. It takes a lot to have him begging for a vote. This is one of those very rare occasions where he believed in something so much he convinced the other judges to change their mind.

It really is true what they say about dog people: they would rather be hungry and uncomfortable to ensure the comfort of their furry friend. Truly a heartwarming friendship.

When Simon asked what she would do if she won the show and the million dollars, she was quick to respond that it will go to teaching people how to train their dog using positive reinforcement. Even as she competed, she still had dogs in mind.
