The search for the next big variety act in the UK is on with ITV's Britain's Got Talent. Popular comedians and hosts Ant and Dec join the judges Simon Cowell, Piers Morgan and Amanda Holden on this highly anticipated show that will culminate in not only a big cash prize of £100,000 for the winning act, but also a starring slot performing in The Royal Variety Performance.

This is an Australian talent show. About 24 acts compete for the chance to win $250,000. The contestants are judged by the viewing public via online voting as well as three celebrity judges: Dannii Minogue, Tom Burlinson and Red Symons.

America's Got Talent is a reality TV show where Simon Cowell and NBC search for the most talented person in America. Contestants showcase their skills in front of a panel of judges and a live audience, competing for a chance to win a grand prize and become the next big star.
