America's Got Talent - Final Auditions

Cannon called out every state AGT has auditioned hopefuls, but ummmm...where are they tonight? This is the second time I've managed to miss the state where auditions were being held.

Plus, I felt trixed, because last week they said AGT was going to be in Vegas "Next Tuesday Night." OMG! They suckered me into watching more bad acts...or did they?

First, three little girls, 9-10, cute as all get out, until one showed her attitude. "We're the Calico Hearts," said one. Then little miss look at me, said, "No. AVERY and the Calico Hearts." Wonder which one was Avery? lol

They were talented for their ages and whilst Avery was the lead singer, I think either one of the other two could have sang the lead just as well. Then they'd have to change their names to Just Plain Ol' Calico Hearts, because Avery wouldn't allow any one person, other than herself, to feature their name. lol

No matter what they call themselves, they're headed for Vegas.

So, was tonight's show going to be more entertaining than the others? We've heard of people who put blood, sweat and tears into their life's ambition, but Kevin Shelley really did put blood into his performance.

After breaking a bajillion boards with his forehead, no doubt he went hope with one hell of a headache - not to mention a gash so deep I'm sure it needs stitches. Wonder if they put him through because they felt badly. hmmmm.

Desmond Meeks, who sang "Georgia on My Mind" got three yes votes to Vegas. Thomas John, a juggler, who learned to juggle to impress ladies was voted through, too. As was 4 Play, a group of female vocalists, who performed a Beyonce song and J. Chris Newburg, who did a comedic song about Women. Pierce didn't think it was funny, but the other two voted him through. Backstage, J. Chris spontaneously wrote a song dedicated to Pierce. "Hey, Pierce, Suck It."

If you watch the show, you know Howie loves to play practical jokes on Pierce. Well, for a change someone played a practical joke on Howie - the germophobe. He went into his trailer and shouted, "There's P on my toilet!" The camera zooms in and OMG! LOL! There's the letter P, made of wood, sitting on his toilet. Guess I must have been in one of those "silly" moods, because I laughed out loud.

The "Hell no you ain't going to Vegas" votes went to:

King Diamond, who sang "Just My Imagination" really badly.
Manchego, who appeared on stage in a robe and then proceeded to take off a thousand pairs of colorfully designed briefs until finally he was completely exposed. I'm just guessing, because the camera didn't show his lower half, but by audience reaction, he probably should have left the last pair on.
Morton Hyson, an opera singer, declared he was going to hit the lowest note ever written for an aria - Low D. Fail!
Goowin's balloon act was quickly buzzed off, but I'm sure you can hire him for your kiddies next party.

We then suffered through one more "hell no" act, albeit briefly, an off key singer named, Marivana.

When Chicago's Ultimate Tumblers, lead by Orpheus - their mentor, coach, father figure to some - performed, it was exciting. Yeah, it was just tumbling, but their leaps kept growing higher and higher, via a human pyramid that they had to tumble over. And even after the girl at the top was knocked down by one of the tumblers, she just jumped right back up there. The judges were impressed and the tumblers, on their way to Vegas.

Then, the final act, whose names I didn't get and whose act was a mystery. One of them was named Frank. Or was that Fred? Actually, the name of the act was, "Meet Me at Fairfax and 3rd."

Two elderly dudes; one, 67, and the other near death, met at a Karaoke bar. Wait, is Karaoke a talent? A keyboard was set up and a chair, like a prop. Hmmmm?

OMG! They had everyone laughing hysterically. The 67 year old did head stands on the chair in different positions, whilst his friend played the keyboard and sang off key.

Still, no matter how funny it was, they shouldn't have been sent through with three yes votes. I mean, really?

LOL! Are you sure you're reading what I write? The "lil tumbler" wasn't even in the final auditions.
She's a YouTube audition, who has yet to be voted onto the show by viewers.

I hardly think that any of the talent this season can compare with Jackie Evanco and the guy who won and whose name escapes me atm. LOL

Thanks for the compliment. *2 thumbs up for your stream, which I'll link here of course - when you finally get up and running. hehe
