VIDEO: AND AMERICA'S NEXT TOP TALENT IS...
A tough decision had to be made when it came to the finals of America's Got Talent! All the finalists were so talented and had completely won over the hearts of people all over the world. Most shocking off all though, the two finalists were both children – reminding us that talent is hidden in all ages and we can never be sure who will impress us the most!
The Top 10 finalists for the America's Got Talent Finale were:
- Elvie Clair
- Darci Lynne Farmer
- Chase Goehring
- Angelica Hale
- Mandy Harvey
- Preacher Lawson
- Kechi Okwuchi
- Diavolo
- Light Balance
- Sarah and Hero
All of the finalists, without a doubt, are absolutely talented and will always be in the hearts of all viewers. But the judges could only pick one winner...
After the final results, the winner was announced yesterday, and huge congratulations are in order for Darci Lynne Farmer!
This child ventriloquist continuously wowed audience and judges with her incredible skills and even earned Mel B's Golden Buzzer this season.
Farmer only began developing her act two years ago, but fans would never have guessed it with her amazing performance in the finals!
"This is what I think about you, Darci. When you can appeal to all ages is what you've done but this is what I believe," said Simon Cowell. "The best part of doing this job is when you are there and you can say I was there at the beginning of someone's career and I witnessed a star. Tonight, again, I've just witnessed a star emerge because that's what you are. You are special, incredible, funny, talented. I think you're going to win."
This was a huge and surprising comment coming from Simon Cowell but, sure enough, he was right!
Darci walked away from the competition with a $1 million prize, and is already a winner on YouTube with over 1.5 million viewers! And this is only the beginning...
Congratulations Darci! We cannot wait to see more from you in the future – still shining like the star you are!
