Jackie Evancho Wows on 'America's Got Talent' (VIDEO)
The latest episode of 'America's Got Talent' (Tue., 9PM ET on NBC) featured a special twist. The show presented only acts that have never been seen before, and these contestants had to submit their auditions through YouTube. So, we got some surprises -- and the best one was the 10-year-old opera singer.
Jackie Evancho is small. She's tiny. She's very young. But she has a big, big voice. She's an incredibly amazing opera singer. And the judges were stunned by her performance. But anyone would be stunned, after hearing such a singing voice come out of such a young child.
Judge Howie Mandel said this: "All we [wanted] to do was find that one moment; that one gem. ... And you know what? This is the moment; you're the star."
Piers Morgan was even more straightforward in his praise: "That is one of the most extraordinary performances I've ever seen."
What do you think? Could little Jackie win it all? We're still a little shocked by how amazing her voice is.
