Heidi Klum is leaving the program and instead, Spice Girls star Mel B is making a comeback in the jury for the anniversary season of "America's Got Talent" (AGT).

The speculations about Heidi Klum leaving the talent show began a few weeks ago when it became clear that Klum would lead the upcoming season of the designer competition "Project Runway".

Now, Scary Spice is taking a seat in AGT's judging panel alongside Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, and Sofia Vergara, writes The Hollywood Reporter. She was also on the jury from 2013-18 and last led the spin-off "AGT: Fantasy League".

The American "Talent" premieres on May 27 and the live finals begin in August. Last season, Swedish artist Oscar Stembridge made it as far as the quarterfinals in the program. "Idol" winner Chris Kläfford also competed in "America's Got Talent" in 2019.
