With America's Got Talent currently in its 18th season, viewers of the show have fallen in love with the NBC show's most consistent panel of judges in its 17 years on the air.
The combination of Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel, Simon Cowell, and Sofia Vergara is now in its fourth season, the longest that a panel of judges on the show has remained the same.
As the auditions process for season 18 begin to wind down and we enter the competitive live shows, let's take a look at the massive careers of its four lead stars and how their net worths compare.
Howie Mandel Net Worth
Canadian comedian and actor Howie, 67, first came to prominence in the late 1970s for his work as a stand-up comedian and in local Canadian media.
He received his big break in 1982 when he landed the role of Dr. Wayne Fiscus in the NBC medical drama St. Elsewhere, playing the character till 1988. In 1990, he created, voiced, and starred in the Fox children's cartoon Bobby's World, which ran for eight seasons.

Howie has also hosted the Canadian, daytime, and American NBC revival of the game show Deal or No Deal. He began his stint on AGT in 2010, starting in season five, and began appearing on Canada's Got Talent last year.
With a career in TV, film, and stand-up spanning over four decades, it's no wonder Howie has accrued a net worth of $60 million, according to Celebritynetworth.com.
Sofia Vergara Net Worth
Colombian star Sofia, 51, first rose to prominence in Latin America as a model, making her on-screen debut in a Pepsi commercial at the age of 17.

Heidi Klum Net Worth
German Heidi, 50, is one of the world's leading supermodels, rising to superstardom with her appearance on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 1998 and being named a Victoria's Secret Angel.
