Season 1 of America's Got Talent: All-Stars is officially in the books, and it's time to introduce Aidan Bryant as the winner.
The 18-year-old aerialist first made his debut on America's Got Talent season 16 back in summer 2021. Despite impressing folks with his elaborate tricks, he ended up placing second to magician Dustin Tavella. Aidan didn't let that stop him though. Two years later, he came back and wowed audiences again, beating out Avery Dixon, Light Balance Kids, Ana-Maria Mārgean and Aidan McCan to claim the top prize on the NBC spinoff show.
"Dream come true," he wrote on his Instagram stories. "Y'all my dream came true."
Based on their knowledge about the original show, when host Terry Crews announced Aidan's win, viewers expected to hear that he'd won a significant amount of cash and a chance to headline a show in Las Vegas. Instead, the teen celebrated the moment with a trophy and there was no word about anything else. This led folks to wonder, what does the winner of AGT: All Stars get?

Unlike the original iteration of the hit competition franchise, judge and producer Simon Cowell revealed that that's not the case for AGT: All Stars. "There is no prize other than the biggest prize, which is you will be crowned the best of the best," he revealed during the live February 20 episode taping.
He further confirmed this when asked about the prospect of prize money to Entertainment Tonight. "There's like nothing to win on this show, other than the title," he shared in February. "But they were more nervous on this show than they were on the other show."
Despite there being no prize money, Aidan is already shining on stage. He's currently performing in "America’s Got Talent Presents Super Stars Live" every night at the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas, alongside fellow AGT alums Kodi Lee, the Pack Drumline, Celia Muñoz and others.
"It's just an honor to be here," he told People shortly after his win. "It's going to put me on a big map and I just need to live up to it and take this opportunity and use it for what's best."
