7. Taylor Matthews (Male Teenage Singer)
Taylor Matthews Performance
A favorite among the ladies, Taylor Matthews is a teenage male singer. He has only managed to get this far based upon the overwhelming teenage girl vote, but that is not meant to undermine his talents. Indeed, during the audition process, he was one of my favorite contestants. His audition is still among my favorites. What makes him so popular is not only his boyish charm, but also his ability to re-fit songs from various styles of music to fit his own, a talent not to be underestimated. He has shown considerable range throughout the duration of the competition, and will probably go on to a successful career as a male pop star.
6. Ana and Patryk (Ballroom Dancers)
Ana and Patryk are without a doubt among the most talent performers in the competition. Originally sent home but then brought back as a wild card act, it turned out to be one of the judge's better decisions. The best technical dancers on the show, they have incredible talent for two 12 year old kids. They rival some of the world's best ballroom dancers, and their performances are always a delight to watch. Great choreography, great chemistry, and great dancing combine to make a powerful and dynamic duo.
5. Fighting Gravity (Dark light Spectacle)
Fighting Gravity is my favorite act in the competition, and easily among the best this show has ever had. What they do is hard to put into words, and is something that has to be seen to believe. What I do know is this; these guys deserve to win this show more then any other act. A bunch of college kids from Virginia Tech that threw this together in their garage, they have a tailor-made Vegas act. Their act is so original, so unique, and so wonderful, that watching them perform is something one never forgets. I really want these guys to win, and I would see their Vegas show tomorrow. Cirque du Soleil. Blue Man Group. Fighting Gravity.
4. Michael Grimm (Male Singer)
3. Michael Grasso (Magician)
Simply put, Michael Grasso is awesome. Probably the best magician ever on America's Got Talent, he is a classic Vegas showman. His show is very slick and professional, and brings to mind classic magicians like Harry Houdini and David Copperfield. His tricks are always surprising and leave th
2. Prince Poppycock (Operatic Singer)
Prince Poppycock is probably the best showman in this competition. It wasn't enough for him to have an amazing operatic voice, his performances are also amazing. His costumes and make up bring his over-the-top character of Prince Poppycock to life, and his performances are mesmerizing. Prince Poppycock is one of my favorites. Each of his performances are always uniquely different, and are always a spectacle to the eyes. Truly a wonder to behold. He is the best male singer in the competition, and I can't wait to see him on Broadway someday.
Jackie Evancho had to be number one. She is the favorite to win this competition and rightfully so. After coming out of nowhere with her YouTube audition and melting America's hearts with her incredible operatic voice, she is now the favorite to win. She has the voice of a woman 3x her age, and many believe it to be a hoax or lip-syncing. Believe it people, this girl is for real. Though I marvel at her talent, I don't want her to win this show. While she is certainly one of the most talented people in the competition, I just don't think a 10 year old opera singer can carry her own Vegas show. It would be too much pressure on this 10 year old girl, and I really don't believe there is an audience for it. (Although, even though I can't understand a thing she says, I could listen to her for hours). She has the voice of an angel, and is cute as can be, but I don't want her to win America's Got Talent, but I know she is going to be a huge superstar one day.
Hope you enjoyed it. Full season review out soon.
