Picture this: Three ventriloquists in one room, but two of them have no idea about what they’re doing. This is what happened when the stunning AGT judge, Sofia Vergara, and the hilarious Howie Mandel tried to keep up with Darci Lynne.
Sofia brings out Mr. Grumpy, her puppet. Then, Howie tries to join their ventriloquist session. But, the twist? Edna, Darci’s naughty old puppet, was expecting someone else. When Howie tries to join the group, Edna shuts him down. She says he can only stay if he brings in Simon Cowell.

The best part?! On Edna’s demand, Simon does come, but in the form of a puppet!
But why is Edna so obsessed with Simon? The answer leads us to the legendary moment where Edna finally got her hands on the actual Simon Cowell.
While Darci is a polite young girl, Edna is a flirty firecracker who is obsessed with the British judge. She famously called him her “hunka hunka Englishman” and sang a love song so spicy that Simon—the man who usually scares everyone—actually turned bright red and started blushing like a schoolboy. It was the first time the world saw Simon Cowell totally defeated by a piece of foam and some fabric.

Fans are totally split on who the best puppet is. The Gen Z crowd loves the cute bunny Petunia, but the “bold” fans and the older generation are Team Edna all the way. Why? Because Edna says exactly what we’re all thinking but are too scared to say to Simon’s face.
