Terry Crews - Host of America’s Got Talent: The Champions and America’s Got Talent season 14

Action-movie hero, sitcom star, children’s book illustrator, advertising pitchman, playable video game character, talent show host, high-end furniture designer, and human rights activist all describe the man that is Terry Crews.  If it feels as if Crews is everywhere this summer, that’s because he is: Crews stars on the NBC hit series Brooklyn Nine-Nine which will return midseason. After hosting January’s America’s Got Talent: Champions, which earned the HIGHEST RATINGS of any show in its demo, NBC signed Crews as the official host of their regular broadcast of America’s Got Talent which will premiered Tuesday, May 28th at 8pm. Crews is also the face (and muscles) of Old Spice, a playable character in Microsoft’s Xbox One game Crackdown 3, and a force in the design and art world where his 2017 high-end furniture collection, in partnership with iconic Bernhardt Designs, has been picking up awards across the country and he’s about to release his second collection later this fall.  Crews was also named one of TIME Magazine’s 2017 “Person of the Year” as one of the “Silence Breakers,” speaking out against sexual harassment following the MeToo movement that has taken the world by storm. Crews’ no-holds-barred approach to working has made him a force to be reckoned with as his career continues to evolve.
