The Golden Buzzer Has Arrived
We saw this 14-year-old singer during the Season 21 premiere. Simon tricked Sofia into stealing Lai Noelle away to be one of his Golden Buzzers. Lai’s mother said no one in their family can sing, so Lai is a unicorn. She may be 14 years old, but her voice is so solid and so strong. It’s so powerful, and this song choice is perfect for her. She sounds perfect, and we might be looking at the winner of “America’s Got Talent” Season 21.
Judges’ Feedback: Mel B said she has so much more to learn and experience, but where she’s starting from is pure perfection. Sofia said she sounds like she is a huge artist already. Howie said she is so beyond her years. She is a Golden Buzzer. Kenan said I hope you’re all ready for some more confetti, as she gets the Golden Buzzer!
What do you think of Kenan’s choice of Golden Buzzer tonight?
