Looks like there’s another game of musical chairs afoot at America’s Got Talent.
Judges Julianne Hough and Gabrielle Union will not be returning to the NBC competition after one season, according to Variety.
Union, 47, and Hough, 31, both joined the panel earlier this year, replacing Heidi Klum and Mel B. Veteran judges Simon Cowell and Howie Mandell are expected to return for the 15th season, with Terry Crews coming back as host after stepping in for Tyra Banks, the outlet reported.
Some fans were disappointed in the news taking to Twitter to let their feelings be known as one wrote, “I am very disappointed! Everything always has to change…I thought they both did very well!!”
This bites. I’m not going to miss Julianne. However, I’m sad to see #GabrielleUnion leave. I loved her as a judge. #AGT

But a faction of the AGT stans were delighted with the notion as a social media user posted, “Why would they even be on there,” with another sharing, “Just bring back Heidi and Mel B.”
No word yet on who will be replacing the two for the upcoming season. Past judges include Howard Stern, Piers Morgan and Sharon Osbourne.
Even the AGT spinoff “America’s Got Talent: The Champions” changed up the judging panel for the next season, as newcomer Alesha Dixon replaces Mel B, with Simon, Howie and Heidi returning.
Gabrielle currently stars in the the “Bad Boys” reboot series “L.A.’s Finest” with Jessica Alba, as Julianne can be seen in the new Netflix series “Dolly Parton’s Heartstrings.”
