Gabrielle Union Files Discrimination Complaint Against America's Got Talent

After her initial denial of having issues during her AGT run, Hough responded to the controversy while appearing on Today with her brother Derek Hough to promote their NBC holiday special, Holidays With the Houghs.

"When I see [Union's statement on Twitter], that excites me so much because that is what we need to start conversations and I just commend Gabrielle for speaking her truth and starting a conversation," she said. "I'm really proud of NBC, as well, for also showing up and starting a narrative and that's what's going to change the work place and the paradigm that we've been working in for many, many years and it's shifting and I think that's really exciting."
