The hit series has been extremely popular amongst audiences. Over the past five weeks, viewers have witnessed a large number of contestants in the form of singers, dancers, ventriloquists, magicians, and variety acts in hopes of impressing judges Simon Cowell, Heidi Klum, and Howie Mandel. It will be interesting to see who makes it to the end of the competition.
Mandy Harvey delivers an impressive performance on AGT: All-Stars
Tonight's episode of AGT: All-Stars began with host Terry Crews welcoming the judges and the audience to another night of talent. He explained that the final set of 10 contestants was all ready to perform and this week, the golden buzzer will be decided by him and the judges together. When asked how the experts would agree on one act, they noted that it would be a common consensus.
Mandy Harvey, who previously appeared on AGT Season 12, returned to AGT: All-Stars. The deaf singer's debut on the reality talent series was with her original song Try and received Simon Cowell's Golden Buzzer. Ahead of her performance, she reflected on her journey the previous time.
Mandy was diagnosed deaf when she was 18 years old, however, that didn't deter her from pursuing her passion. She decided to rely on muscular motions and pitches to support her singing. The singer decided not to let her disability come between competing on the show and ended up receiving Simon's golden buzzer.
Mandy was eliminated after reaching the Top 4. In her confessional on AGT: All-Stars, she confessed to feeling relieved about her elimination as she didn't believe in herself. Her audition and performances on Season 12 reached over 600 million views, with Lady Gaga tweeting about the same.
This time around, the singer bounced back stronger and wanted to prove herself and wanted to represent herself the way she wanted to. The judges were excited to see Mandy and welcomed her with applause. Simon expressed that she just needed a second shot to impress the audience and gain enough votes to reach the grand finale of the competition.
The AGT: All-Stars contestant performed another original song, Something I Can Feel. Her pitches and vocal range impressed everyone, leading to a standing ovation from the live audience and the judges. Mandy was left feeling emotional at the response.
Heidi called Mandy's voice "angelic," with positivity oozing out of her. Howie termed her performance "inspirational" and hoped she could hear what she sang. While Simon was initially worried about what her soing choice would be, he noted that her performance on AGT: All-Stars was much better than the one in her debut.
