Judges Jennifer Lopez, Ne-Yo and Derek Hough stood up in awe of the finale performance of the NBC show by the all-men group The Kings, which performed a high-octane sequence involving stunts in slow-motion.
The 14-member Bolly-Hop squad, involving males aged 17-27, was consistently getting ace scores during its run on the show.
