00:09:59,766 --> 00:10:02,733
So, we renamed the group
V.Unbeatable for him.
176
00:10:03,500 --> 00:10:06,800
It is because of him,
we are here in America's Got Talent.
177
00:10:08,300 --> 00:10:10,833
Being on AGT
has been completely life-changing,
178
00:10:11,100 --> 00:10:13,866
and that was Vikas's dream for all of us.
179
00:10:13,933 --> 00:10:16,700
Now, we are on the finals,
we are determined to finish
180
00:10:16,766 --> 00:10:19,000
what Om Prakash
and Vikas started together.
181
00:10:26,766 --> 00:10:29,600
[V.Unbeatable member] We never perform
without his name on our back,
182
00:10:29,666 --> 00:10:33,800

the "V" in V.Unbeatable.

-I can't do this like this.

Uh, the VT described--
244
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,666
Or Terry said,
that you're the last dance group.
245
00:15:09,166 --> 00:15:13,000
You're not a dance group,
you are what I would call a movement.

00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,166
You're representing for the culture.
345
00:20:24,900 --> 00:20:30,300
You represented all the excellence
that are in so many people
346
00:20:30,366 --> 00:20:33,800
that get overlooked and cast to the side,
347
00:20:33,866 --> 00:20:37,066
and what can happen when you recognized
that you are excellent from birth.
348
00:20:37,133 --> 00:20:40,200
And sometimes, it just takes
a little bit of extra love and attention.
349
00:20:40,266 --> 00:20:42,700
And if we give it to all our kids,
all of us can shine.
350
00:20:42,766 --> 00:20:44,766
And you guys shined so bright
on that stage.
351
00:20:44,833 --> 00:20:47,266
-[Mr. White] Thank you so much.
-[Gabrielle] Way to go.
352
00:20:49,066 --> 00:20:50,133
[Terry] Julianne?
353
00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,733
There really is no ceiling for you guys.
354
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:53,933
That was unbelievable.
355
00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,666
Mr. White, thank you so much for,
especially in the final,
356
00:20:56,733 --> 00:21:01,566
giving every single one of them
a chance to shine and have moments.
357
00:21:01,833 --> 00:21:03,900
-Thank you.
-[Julianne] I noticed that was specific.
358
00:21:03,966 --> 00:21:06,833
You all had specific moments,
and then you came together,
359
00:21:06,900 --> 00:21:10,600
and you just absolutely just took us
to a whole new level.
360
00:21:10,666 --> 00:21:13,266
Thank you so much. Thank you.
361
00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:15,600
Simon?
362
00:21:16,333 --> 00:21:17,466
[Terry laughs]
363
00:21:17,533 --> 00:21:19,000
I don't see a choir.
364
00:21:19,066 --> 00:21:22,066
I see a group of individuals
365
00:21:22,133 --> 00:21:24,766
who, throughout this entire competition,
366
00:21:24,833 --> 00:21:28,466
have done everything you possibly can
367
00:21:28,533 --> 00:21:32,933
with enthusiasm, friendship,
talent, personality.
368
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,000
[audience cheers]
369
00:21:34,066 --> 00:21:35,866
[Simon] You represent your city.
370
00:21:36,666 --> 00:21:39,633
You have meant so much to us.
371
00:21:40,166 --> 00:21:43,566
This is gonna be such
a tough competition tonight.
372
00:21:43,633 --> 00:21:46,433
-And God bless you, Mr. White.
-[Mr. White] Thank you, Simon.
373
00:21:46,733 --> 00:21:47,566
DYC!
374
00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:50,566
-Howie?
-There are no words.
375
00:21:50,633 --> 00:21:52,766
What you do is amazing.
376
00:21:52,833 --> 00:21:55,900
You know, tonight, especially like
with V.Unbeatable, then followed by you,
377
00:21:55,966 --> 00:21:58,333
the youth and the passion
and the excitement,
378
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,266
I feel like I'm attending the, uh,
379
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,633
the Simon Cowell Daycare Center.
380
00:22:03,700 --> 00:22:05,766
-I can imagine that's what it's like.
-[Simon laughs]
381
00:22:05,833 --> 00:22:07,566
[Howie] This is amazing. You better vote.
382
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:09,633
-Only one can win.
-[Terry] Hey!
383
00:22:10,766 --> 00:22:12,633
-[Mr. White] Hey.
-[Terry] Listen.
384
00:22:13,733 --> 00:22:15,900
Mr. White, you know, downtown Detroit,
385
00:22:15,966 --> 00:22:18,900
the Spirit of Detroit
is actually wearing a shirt
386
00:22:18,966 --> 00:22:21,733
that says, "Detroit Youth Choir"
on it right now.
387
00:22:22,066 --> 00:22:23,100
How do you feel?
388
00:22:23,633 --> 00:22:26,500
It's so awesome, y'all. Detroit!
389
00:22:26,566 --> 00:22:28,566
Detroit, stand up!
390
00:22:28,633 --> 00:22:30,766
[audience cheering]
391
00:22:30,833 --> 00:22:33,733
[Terry] Good luck tonight,
Detroit Youth Choir.
392
00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,566
Okay, up next, is our young opera singer,
393
00:22:40,633 --> 00:22:44,466
and check this,
she'll be 11 years old tomorrow.
394
00:22:44,533 --> 00:22:48,633
What a way to celebrate a birthday,
winning $1 million.
395
00:22:49,033 --> 00:22:51,266
Here's Emanne Beasha.
396
00:22:51,866 --> 00:22:53,700
[dramatic music playing]
397
00:22:53,766 --> 00:22:55,866
[Emanne]
My parents told me when I was little
398
00:22:55,933 --> 00:22:58,300
that if it's your dream,
the sky's the limit.
399
00:23:00,266 --> 00:23:02,400
Making it this far on AGT,
400
00:23:02,466 --> 00:23:03,600
it's like a dream come true.
401
00:23:05,466 --> 00:23:07,933
The first time I stepped on the stage,
402
00:23:08,366 --> 00:23:10,733
my heart was just pounding in my chest.
403
00:23:12,566 --> 00:23:15,100
It was a moment I would never forget.
404
00:23:17,333 --> 00:23:19,933
When I got the golden buzzer
at Judge Cuts,
405
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:20,966
it was like...
406
00:23:22,333 --> 00:23:23,233
epic.
407
00:23:23,300 --> 00:23:24,766
Gold confetti everywhere.
408
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,566
Coming into live shows,
409
00:23:28,066 --> 00:23:30,633
I had butterflies in my stomach.
[chuckles]
410
00:23:31,900 --> 00:23:35,266
But I had my lucky unicorns with me,
411
00:23:35,333 --> 00:23:37,266
and they made everything better.
412
00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,866
You weren't just
in a different league tonight.
413
00:23:42,933 --> 00:23:46,066
You're on a different planet
from everyone else.
414
00:23:48,766 --> 00:23:52,100
Tomorrow, on the finale of AGT,
415
00:23:52,166 --> 00:23:53,733
it's my birthday.
416
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,533
I'm turning 11.
417
00:23:55,933 --> 00:23:58,000
And if I were to win,
418
00:23:58,066 --> 00:24:00,933
that would be
the best birthday present ever.
419
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:05,666
I feel like the stars are aligning
to this moment.
420
00:24:08,100 --> 00:24:11,733
Tonight is the biggest performance
of my life.
421
00:24:11,800 --> 00:24:14,900
My dreams are so close to coming true,
422
00:24:15,300 --> 00:24:18,066
and I'm gonna give it everything I got.
423
00:24:19,300 --> 00:24:23,433
[audience cheering]
424
00:24:30,900 --> 00:24:35,433
[singing opera in foreign language]
425
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:01,466
[singing continues]
426
00:25:37,266 --> 00:25:41,200
[singing high notes]
427
00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,433

430

[audience cheering]
431
00:26:54,433 --> 00:26:57,000
[Terry] Emanne Beasha!
432
00:27:06,666 --> 00:27:10,533
I see my judges are caught up
in a cloud right now.
433
00:27:10,700 --> 00:27:13,500
[Terry chuckles] Julianne?
434
00:27:13,666 --> 00:27:17,266
I mean, that's right. Last week we said
that you were from another planet,
435
00:27:17,333 --> 00:27:19,500
but I think you just took us all
to another planet,
436
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:23,300
because that was otherworldly.
437
00:27:23,366 --> 00:27:27,266
You are-- we said it a thousand times
but you are an angel,
438
00:27:27,766 --> 00:27:29,833
-and you're perfect.
-[Simon] Literally.
439
00:27:30,300 --> 00:27:31,466
You're literally perfect.
440
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,366
The stars are aligned for you right now.
441
00:27:36,966 --> 00:27:37,866
Own it.
442
00:27:39,066 --> 00:27:39,900
[Terry] Simon.
443
00:27:39,966 --> 00:27:42,766
Emanne, this is like
when I used to watch the Olympics
444
00:27:42,833 --> 00:27:46,866
and you'd see these young kids
do these gymnastics,
445
00:27:46,966 --> 00:27:50,133
which I haven't got a bloody clue
what it's all about,
446
00:27:50,366 --> 00:27:56,533
other than you sit there and go,
that talent is extraordinary.
447
00:27:56,633 --> 00:28:00,133
I've never heard the song before,
doesn't matter,
448
00:28:00,866 --> 00:28:06,133
you have the most incredible,
incredible voice,
449
00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,733
and my God,
do you deserve to be here tonight.
450
00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:10,866
-[Julianne] Yes.
-Thank you so much. Thank you, Simon.
451
00:28:11,266 --> 00:28:12,300
[Terry] Howie.
452
00:28:12,366 --> 00:28:14,866
I gotta say, there's no denying
that that is amazing.
453
00:28:14,933 --> 00:28:17,100
I told you I'm not a fan of opera,
but it just so happens
454
00:28:17,166 --> 00:28:20,366
that's the one song that you sang tonight
is the song I work out to.
455
00:28:20,566 --> 00:28:22,266
-[all laughs]
-And-- It is.
456
00:28:22,333 --> 00:28:25,133
And I'm also--
I hear that you're also a BTS fan,
457
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:28,166
so somebody who's a BTS fan
singing that kind of music,
458
00:28:28,233 --> 00:28:31,933
you span the entire gambit for talent.
459
00:28:32,133 --> 00:28:33,433
-I love you.
-[Emanne] Thank you!
460
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:34,833
[Terry] Gabrielle.
461
00:28:35,166 --> 00:28:39,200
Emanne, we love you so much.
Your voice is literal perfection.
462
00:28:39,366 --> 00:28:44,233
You act-- if an angel, like, dropped down
to earth today she would sound like you.
463
00:28:44,500 --> 00:28:48,033
You are an actual angel on this earth,
and such a blessing to us all,
464
00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,466
and such a loving,
kind young woman in real life.
465
00:28:51,566 --> 00:28:53,600
I love you.
I love you, love you, love you.
466
00:28:53,666 --> 00:28:55,033
-[audience cheering]
-Thank you, guys.
467
00:28:55,100 --> 00:28:58,600
[Terry] Great job, Emanne. [chuckles]
468
00:29:00,433 --> 00:29:03,766
This comedian has faced
plenty of struggles in his life,
469
00:29:03,866 --> 00:29:08,066
but he's always managed to find the funny
and get the whole country laughing.
470
00:29:08,466 --> 00:29:10,033
Can he go all the way and win?
471
00:29:10,366 --> 00:29:12,466
He is Ryan Niemiller.
472
00:29:13,233 --> 00:29:15,166
[Ryan's brother]
It's all yours. Come on, take it.
473
00:29:15,233 --> 00:29:17,633
-Get me that chicken here.
-[laughs] Never mind.
474
00:29:17,700 --> 00:29:19,066
[Ryan's sister] [laughs] Chicken.
475
00:29:19,366 --> 00:29:21,866
You know, we all grew up
poor trailer kids, you know?
476
00:29:21,933 --> 00:29:25,700
Now being in the finals where
if I win this I get a million dollars,
477
00:29:26,066 --> 00:29:28,533
that seems like the most money
anyone could ever have.
478
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:31,633
It's definitely weird, uh, going from,
like, just seeing you in every day
479
00:29:31,700 --> 00:29:33,833
to seeing your brother on TV. [chuckles]
480
00:29:33,900 --> 00:29:35,733
And I'm still begging you
to tie my shoes, and--
481
00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:38,433
[laughs] Which you haven't paid me
for that, by the way.
482
00:29:38,500 --> 00:29:40,666
Exactly.
Well, if I win the million I'll...
483
00:29:40,733 --> 00:29:41,900
-Thank you.
-not pay you still.
484
00:29:41,966 --> 00:29:45,133
He still owes me money
from when I invested in him early on.
485
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,600
-He says that.
-See, I don't know what that means.
486
00:29:47,900 --> 00:29:49,733
When you were three and I think I was five
487
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:52,033
and made you swallow
a couple dimes and a penny.
488
00:29:52,100 --> 00:29:53,333
[all laughs]
489
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:54,666
Just to see if you could do it.
490
00:29:55,133 --> 00:29:57,100
It shows that I was never scared
of a challenge.
491
00:29:57,166 --> 00:29:58,800
-Even though you're a jackass.
-[laughs]
492
00:29:58,866 --> 00:30:00,400
-Mostly.
-I'm right here.
493
00:30:00,466 --> 00:30:01,500
[Ryan's sister] Oh, my bad.
494
00:30:01,566 --> 00:30:03,433
I might not have arms,
but I do have feelings.
495
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,166
When you were little
and you always made everybody laugh--
496
00:30:07,233 --> 00:30:09,500
You're like, you kind of have to think
I'm funny, though.
497
00:30:09,566 --> 00:30:10,433
No, I don't.
498
00:30:10,566 --> 00:30:13,466
You know, like, your mom's supposed
to love you, that's all.
499
00:30:13,533 --> 00:30:15,833
I love you, that goes without saying.
500
00:30:15,900 --> 00:30:18,933
But, you know,
I'm really, really, really proud of you.
501
00:30:19,266 --> 00:30:20,866
I couldn't be more prouder.
502
00:30:21,700 --> 00:30:24,100
And, you know,
I know you're where you wanna be,
503
00:30:24,166 --> 00:30:27,066
and that means more to me than anything.
[sniffs]
504
00:30:27,366 --> 00:30:28,766
Thank you, Mom. That means a lot.
505
00:30:28,833 --> 00:30:32,366
Uh, yeah, this is-- it's a little nuts.
506
00:30:32,433 --> 00:30:35,900
[slow instrumental music plays]
507
00:30:35,966 --> 00:30:37,400
I don't want this to end.

[audience cheering & applauding]
510
00:30:59,166 --> 00:31:01,733
Oh, thank you guys so, so much.
511
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:04,833
It's fun to be on TV,
I hear the camera adds 10 fingers.
512
00:31:04,900 --> 00:31:07,600
-Let's do this.
-[audience laughing]
513
00:31:07,666 --> 00:31:10,533
People have been asking me how my life
has changed since being on AGT.
514
00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,600
I'm being recognized in public a lot,
515
00:31:12,666 --> 00:31:14,133
which I don't know how to feel about.
516
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,866
Like, I'm really confident here, but
out in the wild it's a little different.
517
00:31:18,466 --> 00:31:19,466
I'll give you an example.
518
00:31:19,533 --> 00:31:20,900
After my audition aired,
519
00:31:20,966 --> 00:31:24,500
that following Saturday
I went to a garage sale because I party,
520
00:31:24,566 --> 00:31:25,533
[Howie laughs]
521
00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:26,966
that's how we celebrate in Indiana,
522
00:31:27,866 --> 00:31:30,500
and I was walking up to the sale,
the guy who was running it,
523
00:31:30,566 --> 00:31:33,833
he saw me approaching and he went,
Cripple Threat!
524
00:31:34,300 --> 00:31:35,766
[audience laughs]
525
00:31:35,833 --> 00:31:39,000
Which was awesome,
because that means that he saw me on AGT.
526
00:31:40,633 --> 00:31:43,233
But no one else at the garage sale had.
527
00:31:43,300 --> 00:31:44,466
[laughing]
528
00:31:44,533 --> 00:31:47,333
So it sounded like
he was just warning people
529
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,500
that a handicapped a guy was approaching.
530
00:31:49,966 --> 00:31:52,233
Like, you said I was crazy but it's real!
531
00:31:52,300 --> 00:31:54,466
The cripple threat is here,
they're among us!
532
00:31:55,166 --> 00:31:57,566
He learned to pick locks,
he got out of his cage.
533
00:31:59,066 --> 00:32:01,933
And it's hard to haggle down the price
of a blender at that point, so...
534
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:03,200
[laughing]
535
00:32:03,266 --> 00:32:05,866
And I'm fist bumping a lot, everybody,
I'm fist bumping.
536
00:32:05,933 --> 00:32:07,266
Just all day, just...
537
00:32:07,333 --> 00:32:10,000
I got tennis elbow from fist bumping
so much, it's crazy.
538
00:32:10,666 --> 00:32:12,533
Like, I like to shake hands,
that's what I do.
539
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:16,733
Like, if you ever see me out on the
street, like, I'm coming in hard and fast.
540
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,133
Just, pow, let's do this.
541
00:32:19,300 --> 00:32:22,400
But, like, everyone...
Like, everyone is fist bumping me.
542
00:32:22,466 --> 00:32:25,466
I've been so many people's
clearly first fist bump ever,
543
00:32:25,533 --> 00:32:27,400
I'm like you're 95, Ruth, all right?
544
00:32:27,466 --> 00:32:28,500
You don't fist bump.
545
00:32:28,566 --> 00:32:30,266
[laughing]
546
00:32:30,333 --> 00:32:32,700
I've been trying to figure out
why no one wants to shake my hand
547
00:32:32,766 --> 00:32:34,400
and I've narrowed it down to two reasons.
548
00:32:34,466 --> 00:32:37,366
I think number one,
people don't wanna shake my hand
549
00:32:37,433 --> 00:32:39,466
because they're afraid they're gonna,
like, break it.
550
00:32:40,133 --> 00:32:42,600
Like, it's not made of crackers,
everybody, all right?
551
00:32:42,666 --> 00:32:43,966
Like, there's bone in there.
552
00:32:44,033 --> 00:32:47,333
Terry Crews has shaken my hand
many times, and I'm fine.
553
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,466
None of you are Terry Crews, I promise.
554
00:32:49,533 --> 00:32:51,166
[audience cheering]
555
00:32:52,733 --> 00:32:55,200
And the second reason
I think people don't wanna shake my hand,
556
00:32:55,266 --> 00:32:56,366
and I swear this is true,
557
00:32:56,433 --> 00:32:58,700
I think some people are concerned
they're gonna catch it.
558
00:32:58,766 --> 00:33:00,066
[Julianne] Oh, my God.
559
00:33:00,133 --> 00:33:02,866
Because they're coming in, just,
"Mmm, no."
560
00:33:03,766 --> 00:33:04,933
And that is ridiculous,
561
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:07,466
the only way you're gonna catch it
is if I sneeze in your mouth,
562
00:33:07,533 --> 00:33:08,533
that's the only way.
563
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:10,266
[laughing]
564
00:33:10,333 --> 00:33:11,500
And I feel a cold coming on.
565
00:33:11,566 --> 00:33:12,666
[laughing]
566
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:16,033
And I'm inspiring a lot of people,
which is amazing,
567
00:33:16,100 --> 00:33:18,500
but I think some people
are getting inspired the wrong way.
568
00:33:18,566 --> 00:33:20,800
I had someone come up to me
after a show recently
569
00:33:20,866 --> 00:33:23,133
and they were like, "Ryan, you know what?
570
00:33:24,100 --> 00:33:26,066
I was having a pretty rough day.
571
00:33:27,100 --> 00:33:30,433
Things in my life
just haven't been going that great.
572
00:33:33,666 --> 00:33:35,000
And then I saw you.
573
00:33:35,066 --> 00:33:36,366
[laughs]
574
00:33:36,433 --> 00:33:39,633
And I realized
my life's not so bad anymore."
575
00:33:39,700 --> 00:33:40,766
[audience laughing]
576
00:33:41,566 --> 00:33:45,066
If any of you thought that
when you saw me walk on this stage tonight
577
00:33:45,133 --> 00:33:47,900
I want you to do me a huge favor
and get out, all right?
578
00:33:47,966 --> 00:33:49,600
You don't deserve the rest of this.
579
00:33:51,233 --> 00:33:52,266
That is ridiculous.
580
00:33:52,900 --> 00:33:54,666
Because I can't do that to anyone else.
581
00:33:54,733 --> 00:33:57,533
I couldn't stop a woman on the street
and be like, "Ma'am, you know what?
582
00:33:58,133 --> 00:33:59,866
I was having a pretty rough day.
583
00:34:00,900 --> 00:34:03,800
I just wasn't feeling
like a very attractive person.
584
00:34:05,966 --> 00:34:07,333
[audience laughing]
585
00:34:08,733 --> 00:34:10,199
And then I saw you.
586
00:34:11,199 --> 00:34:14,566
And I realized I am at least a seven,
so thank you. Thank you."
587
00:34:16,833 --> 00:34:17,833
Before I get out of here
588
00:34:17,900 --> 00:34:19,333
I'm gonna end on a sappy note,
589
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:20,933
I wanna thank America's Got Talent
590
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,500
and I wanna thank all of you in America
for voting me this far,
591
00:34:23,566 --> 00:34:24,966
it means the world to me.
592
00:34:25,033 --> 00:34:26,233
Thank you so much.
593
00:34:26,300 --> 00:34:28,166
[audience cheering]
594
00:34:28,233 --> 00:34:31,366
If you could all vote for me tonight
I would really appreciate it,
595
00:34:31,433 --> 00:34:35,933
and if you don't vote for me,
it's technically a hate crime, so...
596
00:34:36,000 --> 00:34:37,033
[laughing]
597
00:34:37,100 --> 00:34:38,600
[laughing] I'm Ryan Niemiller, you guys.
598
00:34:38,666 --> 00:34:39,900
Thank you also, so much.
599
00:34:39,966 --> 00:34:41,533
[cheering]
600
00:34:42,900 --> 00:34:46,233
[Terry] Ryan Niemiller!
601
00:34:51,833 --> 00:34:52,766
Woo.
602
00:34:52,833 --> 00:34:54,166
[audience cheering & applauding]
603
00:34:55,066 --> 00:34:56,533
[Terry laughing]
604
00:34:57,500 --> 00:34:58,666
[Terry] They're on their feet.
605
00:34:59,966 --> 00:35:01,000
Simon?
606
00:35:01,433 --> 00:35:02,933
Well, you know what, Ryan,
607
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:06,833
I'm gonna stop myself
from gushing for a moment,
608
00:35:06,900 --> 00:35:08,366
because you know how much I love you.
609
00:35:08,433 --> 00:35:10,066
I wanna put this thought out there.
610
00:35:10,133 --> 00:35:14,033
There are so many comedies and movies
being made every month, every year...
611
00:35:14,100 --> 00:35:15,000
[sighs]
612
00:35:15,066 --> 00:35:17,833
...there has to be somebody watching
this show tonight
613
00:35:17,900 --> 00:35:20,900
who is gonna make something
like The Hangover 6 or whatever it is,
614
00:35:20,966 --> 00:35:22,466
or the next sitcom,
615
00:35:22,933 --> 00:35:25,500
who I really want you to consider Ryan,
616
00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:28,466
doesn't have to be a lead role,
it can be a supporting role,
617
00:35:28,533 --> 00:35:31,733
but this guy has done enough
to show that he is box office,
618
00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,633
-he is popular, he is talented.
-Thank you, thank you.
619
00:35:34,700 --> 00:35:36,733
[Simon]
You have to take a risk, he's not a risk.
620
00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:41,733
Give him the part and break he deserves
from doing so well, please.
621
00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:42,700
[Terry] Yes!
622
00:35:42,766 --> 00:35:43,833
[audience cheering]
623
00:35:43,900 --> 00:35:44,766
[Terry] Howie.
624
00:35:44,833 --> 00:35:47,133
You know what, Ryan, you know I love you,
625
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:49,966
you know I love the fact
that there's a comedian in the finals,
626
00:35:50,033 --> 00:35:52,300
I would love a comedian
to win this whole thing.
627
00:35:52,366 --> 00:35:53,866
I think you're so deserving.
628
00:35:53,933 --> 00:35:56,066
Not only are you funny,
not only are you talented,
629
00:35:56,133 --> 00:35:57,433
you have an amazing heart.
630
00:35:57,500 --> 00:35:59,166
From watching your package
with your family
631
00:35:59,233 --> 00:36:01,366
and knowing who you are
and what this means to you,
632
00:36:01,433 --> 00:36:03,766
I love you, I laugh at you,
I wanna hug you,
633
00:36:03,833 --> 00:36:05,566
I want you to be a star,
and you are a star.
634
00:36:05,633 --> 00:36:06,666
Thank you.
635
00:36:08,100 --> 00:36:09,133
[Terry] Gabrielle.
636
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,333
Listen, I have a production company,
I am making movies,
637
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,966
and I want you to be a star
in one of my movies.
638
00:36:15,033 --> 00:36:15,966
That's how good you are.
639
00:36:16,033 --> 00:36:19,233
You heard it, you heard it.
She said it on television, you heard it.
640
00:36:19,300 --> 00:36:21,800
You are a star, you are a star.
641
00:36:21,866 --> 00:36:24,433
-[Simon] That took three seconds.
-When your mom spoke it took me out,
642
00:36:24,500 --> 00:36:27,533
-you are everything, Ryan.
-Gabrielle, that took three seconds.
643
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:29,200
-That's it. He's a star.
-It just happened.
644
00:36:29,266 --> 00:36:30,500
-That's it.
-[Ryan] Thanks Simon.
645
00:36:30,566 --> 00:36:31,566
[Ryan laughs]
646
00:36:31,633 --> 00:36:33,866
-Julianne.
-[Julianne] I'll make it quick.
647
00:36:33,933 --> 00:36:36,733
You are a star, I love you,
it's been an honor to watch you
648
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,700
from the very beginning
to this moment right here,
649
00:36:39,766 --> 00:36:41,500
and I love what your mom said,
650
00:36:41,566 --> 00:36:44,066
that I'm happy that you are
where you wanna be,
651
00:36:44,133 --> 00:36:46,100
because it absolutely shows.
652
00:36:46,166 --> 00:36:47,566
This is where you're meant to be.
653
00:36:49,766 --> 00:36:53,600
[Terry]
Now Ryan, on top of all those movie roles,
654
00:36:53,666 --> 00:36:57,466
what would you do
if you won the million dollars?
655
00:36:57,533 --> 00:37:00,366
Well, the trailer park never came
out of me, so maybe a double wide.
656
00:37:00,433 --> 00:37:01,366
We can make this work.
657
00:37:01,433 --> 00:37:03,366
I'll buy the whole park,
we'll have a party.
658
00:37:03,433 --> 00:37:04,266
[Terry laughs]
659
00:37:04,333 --> 00:37:06,466
Well, good luck tonight, Ryan.
660
00:37:08,066 --> 00:37:10,066
[audience cheering]
661
00:37:10,766 --> 00:37:13,800
Up next tonight
our four singers on a mission,
662
00:37:14,266 --> 00:37:17,233
to help people
who sometimes struggle to be heard.
663
00:37:17,666 --> 00:37:18,533
And it's working.
664
00:37:19,166 --> 00:37:21,400
They are Voices of Service.
665
00:37:21,933 --> 00:37:23,933
[audience cheering]
666
00:37:24,766 --> 00:37:25,966
[Woman] "Dear Voices of Service,
667
00:37:26,866 --> 00:37:29,000
I've just seen your performance
on America's Got Talent.
668
00:37:29,733 --> 00:37:31,733
[somber music playing]
669
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,200
I lost three of my close battle buddies,
670
00:37:35,066 --> 00:37:36,666
one of which was our platoon leader.
671
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:39,933
I have been in a hard struggle with PTSD.
672
00:37:41,266 --> 00:37:44,266
Also I had a strong
sense of worthlessness,
673
00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,466
and a huge, prevailing feeling of failure.
674
00:37:52,266 --> 00:37:55,700
[man] I am reaching out because
I saw your story on America's Got Talent.
675
00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:00,666
My dad suffered from PTSD
after he came back from Iraq,
676
00:38:01,566 --> 00:38:02,933
and he passed away...
677
00:38:05,433 --> 00:38:06,966
And he passed away two years ago.
678
00:38:09,133 --> 00:38:11,333
It took me up until my 18th year
in the Army
679
00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:13,066
to confront the demons that haunted me.
680
00:38:14,466 --> 00:38:16,666

and that's what you guys do,
749

is you recognize those heroes

spreading the message

Gabrielle.
856
00:48:25,933 --> 00:48:28,466
I mean, what I loved in the package,
we saw little Dennis,
857
00:48:28,533 --> 00:48:30,666
none of us knew that he was--
That he had gotten sick,
858
00:48:30,733 --> 00:48:34,266
he's in the hospital with his
hospital gown on just getting it,
859
00:48:34,333 --> 00:48:37,933
that just goes to show the world
how committed you guys are
860
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:39,500
and how focused you guys are.
861
00:48:39,566 --> 00:48:40,566
Great job.
862
00:48:40,633 --> 00:48:41,633
Thank you.
863
00:48:41,700 --> 00:48:43,033
Simon.
864
00:48:43,100 --> 00:48:45,433
I'm going to be really honest
with you guys,
865
00:48:45,500 --> 00:48:48,333
I haven't been really supportive
866
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:51,000
the entire way through the competition,
as you know.
867
00:48:51,066 --> 00:48:53,900
However, when it mattered,
which is tonight,
868
00:48:53,966 --> 00:48:57,133
you pulled out the best performance
you've done in this competition.
869
00:48:57,200 --> 00:48:58,833
Thank you.
870
00:48:58,900 --> 00:49:00,633
[Simon] And let me tell you why.
-Thank you.
871
00:49:00,700 --> 00:49:06,366
Because this is the first time
I felt like it was you guys,
872
00:49:06,433 --> 00:49:08,600
not some older people in the background,
873
00:49:08,666 --> 00:49:11,266
doing the creative, coming up
with the ideas,
874
00:49:11,333 --> 00:49:14,200
doing something which you
believe in, and it was fun,
875
00:49:14,266 --> 00:49:16,100
it was cool, it was relevant.
876
00:49:16,166 --> 00:49:19,666
Dennis, we've missed you,
welcome back. Amazing, guys.
877
00:49:19,733 --> 00:49:21,000

and that is wow.

00:49:26,300 --> 00:49:28,966
And I still believe it.

the entire act was gluten free.

We are so glad for--
888
00:49:52,166 --> 00:49:56,966

in his life, ever since he can remember.

to become part of AGT history.

It's okay.
901
00:50:28,833 --> 00:50:30,733
Dude, you've grown up watching AGT.
902
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:32,766
I know. Now I'm at the finals.
903

[Benicio] I was just 1
906
00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:38,433
when America's Got Talent started,
907
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:41,566
and ever since I can remember,
me and my family always watched.
908
00:50:41,633 --> 00:50:42,500
I grew up with it.

And I remember one day,
I made a wish that I would win it.
912
00:50:49,000 --> 00:50:50,633
-Hi.
-[Dad] Hi, baby.

[audience cheering]
914
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,400
When I was little, I always bugged
my parents to get me a drum set,
915
00:50:56,466 --> 00:50:58,633
and when I was 6,
that's when they finally got me one.
916
00:50:58,700 --> 00:51:00,933
That was the year
that Michael Grimm won AGT.
917
00:51:02,100 --> 00:51:03,300
[Dad] Wait! Ugh!
918
00:51:03,800 --> 00:51:05,700
[Benicio]
When I was 9, that's when Kenichi won,
919
00:51:05,766 --> 00:51:09,033
and that's also the same year
that my dad started taking guitar lessons.
920
00:51:10,266 --> 00:51:12,333
I borrowed his guitar all the time,
921
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,066
so for my 10th birthday,
my parents got me my own.
922
00:51:15,133 --> 00:51:16,833
That was the best birthday present ever.
923
00:51:16,900 --> 00:51:17,733
[vocalizing]
924
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:19,533
When I was 11,
Grace VanderWaal was on the show.
925
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:22,700
Seeing someone as young as she was
writing her own songs
926
00:51:22,766 --> 00:51:25,633
and performing them on AGT,
I thought it was so cool.
927
00:51:25,700 --> 00:51:27,900
At that moment, I knew
that that's what I wanted to do.
928
00:51:27,966 --> 00:51:30,000
[Terry] Benicio Bryant!
929
00:51:30,066 --> 00:51:32,933
[Benicio] This week I turn 15,
and I'm in the finals of AGT.
930
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:34,000
Happy birthday!
931
00:51:34,066 --> 00:51:36,666
Through all of my birthdays
and all of the seasons of the show,
932
00:51:36,733 --> 00:51:39,166
you know, I never really thought
that I would be here.
933
00:51:39,233 --> 00:51:42,400
I actually have a chance to win,
and maybe my wish will come true.

and be able to hold a stage
without bells and whistles

You wrote the song, no gimmicks,
nothing other than who you are,

my absolute respect

And this is what I've been saying.

00:55:33,766 --> 00:55:37,233
I think Benicio could win this
if he doesn't sing a cover.

If he sings a cover, I don't know.

[audience] Kodi! Kodi! Kodi! Kodi!

01:08:22,966 --> 01:08:24,899
[Terry] Kodi Lee!
1202
01:08:31,899 --> 01:08:33,100
[Terry] Gabrielle.
1203
01:08:39,233 --> 01:08:42,166
[Gabrielle]
Having Kodi Lee be my golden buzzer,
1204
01:08:42,233 --> 01:08:47,333
Kodi has changed the world,
he changes every room he enters,
1205
01:08:47,399 --> 01:08:49,433
and when he said I think
I'd be lost without you,
1206
01:08:49,500 --> 01:08:52,700
I think the whole world would be lost
if we had not found Kodi Lee.
1207
01:08:52,766 --> 01:08:53,600
Thank you.
1208
01:08:53,666 --> 01:08:56,300
[Gabrielle] Thank you for blessing us all,
Kodi. Thank you so much.
1209
01:08:56,366 --> 01:08:58,366
[Kodi] Thank you.
1210
01:08:58,433 --> 01:09:00,833
-[Terry] Howie.
-Two words come to mind.
1211
01:09:00,899 --> 01:09:03,033
-Heck yeah!
-[Kodi] Heck yeah!
1212
01:09:03,100 --> 01:09:07,966
[Howie] Heck yeah. I think Season 14
is the season of Kodi Lee,
1213
01:09:08,033 --> 01:09:10,833
and if I had to predict,
you're worth much more than a million,
1214
01:09:10,899 --> 01:09:13,433
but I think you're going to walk
out of here with a million.
1215
01:09:13,500 --> 01:09:15,466
Thank you. [laughs]
1216
01:09:16,700 --> 01:09:18,000
[Terry] Julianne.
1217
01:09:18,066 --> 01:09:21,266
Kodi Lee, when you get on that stage
1218
01:09:21,333 --> 01:09:23,100
and you open your mouth
1219
01:09:23,166 --> 01:09:25,666
and you sing, time stops.
1220
01:09:25,733 --> 01:09:30,200
And you impact us in a way
that we get to share this moment
1221
01:09:30,266 --> 01:09:31,766
collectively together forever,
1222
01:09:31,833 --> 01:09:33,866
and you create that moment for us.
1223
01:09:33,933 --> 01:09:37,366
-[Julianne] So thank you.
-Thank you so much.
1224
01:09:38,866 --> 01:09:40,200
[Terry] Simon.
1225
01:09:40,266 --> 01:09:43,200
One of the most beautiful things
I've ever, ever heard.
1226
01:09:43,266 --> 01:09:45,600
-I'm going to be really honest with you.
-[Howie] Absolutely.
1227
01:09:45,666 --> 01:09:51,433
Genuinely, Kodi, your film,
and that song, and that lyric, and you,
1228
01:09:51,500 --> 01:09:56,133
everything about it was,
like I very first said about you,
1229
01:09:56,200 --> 01:09:57,266
it's like being in a movie.
1230
01:09:57,333 --> 01:10:00,366
And look, I'm going to say this
about you and everybody else,
1231
01:10:00,433 --> 01:10:04,200
it's so easy to assume that, you know,
it's a shoo-in,
1232
01:10:04,266 --> 01:10:07,933
everybody needs the vote, but after that,
1233
01:10:09,766 --> 01:10:12,933
that was as good as I've ever heard.
I'm gonna be honest.
1234
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:14,366
[Kodi] Thank you.
1235
01:10:17,866 --> 01:10:23,533
Kodi, everyone in this room
is standing for you right now.
1236
01:10:24,700 --> 01:10:27,400
They love you. They're chanting your name.
1237
01:10:27,466 --> 01:10:29,233
[Terry] How does that make you feel, sir?
1238
01:10:29,300 --> 01:10:33,833
[audience chanting] Kodi! Kodi! Kodi!
1239
01:10:38,700 --> 01:10:43,000
[audience chanting] Kodi! Kodi! Kodi!
1240
01:10:46,566 --> 01:10:49,200
Good luck tonight, Kodi.
1241
01:10:53,133 --> 01:10:55,966
Here's our last performance of the finals,
1242
01:10:56,033 --> 01:11:01,700
a group of kids whose talent and spirit
have had an impact around the world.
1243
01:11:01,766 --> 01:11:04,166
Here's Ndlovu Youth Choir.
1244
01:11:07,133 --> 01:11:10,266
[man] These kids
come from a difficult background,
1245
01:11:10,333 --> 01:11:13,300
and have been through massive hardships.
1246
01:11:13,366 --> 01:11:17,300
But when a child first comes to the choir,
the most beautiful thing happens.
1247
01:11:18,466 --> 01:11:23,166
They lift their head,
they fill their lungs with air,
1248
01:11:23,233 --> 01:11:25,366
and they shout out to the world.
1249
01:11:25,433 --> 01:11:28,366
And here they are not only uniting
an entire nation,
1250
01:11:29,366 --> 01:11:32,166
but shouting out a message
that if you can dream it,
1251
01:11:32,233 --> 01:11:33,266
you can do it.
1252
01:11:34,500 --> 01:11:35,800
The accomplishments of this choir
1253
01:11:35,866 --> 01:11:38,300
are making a huge impact
in their community.
1254
01:11:38,366 --> 01:11:39,933
It gives them hope for a better future.
1255
01:11:41,666 --> 01:11:44,400
[boy 1] We may be far, far away from home,
1256
01:11:45,733 --> 01:11:48,466
but our community is with us.
1257
01:11:50,633 --> 01:11:53,966
We did this together, as a family.
1258
01:11:55,766 --> 01:11:58,866
[girl 1] I feel like
we are putting Limpopo on the map.
1259
01:12:00,133 --> 01:12:04,366
[boy 1] Being on America's Got Talent
has been a life-changing experience.
1260
01:12:05,900 --> 01:12:08,466
[man 1] I am beyond proud.
How could you not be?
1261
01:12:08,533 --> 01:12:11,466
This is who we are. This is-- This is...
1262
01:12:12,833 --> 01:12:14,400
This is who South Africa is.
1263
01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:19,033
This might be our last
performance on the AGT stage,
1264
01:12:20,300 --> 01:12:22,866
but it's not the end of our journey.
1265
01:12:22,933 --> 01:12:24,566
It's just the beginning.

Simon.
1291
01:15:31,533 --> 01:15:35,233
I pray for one thing only on these shows,
1292
01:15:35,300 --> 01:15:38,700
and I pray the show
can change people's lives.
1293
01:15:38,766 --> 01:15:41,466
I think that performance
may just have done it.
1294
01:15:41,533 --> 01:15:43,600
And you have ended,
1295
01:15:43,666 --> 01:15:46,766
with that performance,
and I really mean this,
1296
01:15:46,833 --> 01:15:50,466
the best final I have ever sat on
in my life.
1297

by a clear mile.

-[Terry] Julianne.
1300

This is my first season on AGT,
1301
01:16:01,766 --> 01:16:04,300
and first of all, just thank you
for giving me this opportunity
1302
01:16:04,366 --> 01:16:08,166
to be in front of you,
in front of everybody.
1303
01:16:08,233 --> 01:16:11,866
This is, like, I am so blessed
to watch you guys,
1304
01:16:11,933 --> 01:16:17,300
and the joy that you bring to us,
to everybody watching all over the world,

Oh, I'm so proud.
1309
01:16:25,466 --> 01:16:29,000
This whole audience
was along for the journey with you guys,
1310
01:16:29,066 --> 01:16:31,733
you are the pride of Africa,
you are the pride of--
1311
01:16:31,800 --> 01:16:33,866
of America.
1312
01:16:33,933 --> 01:16:39,866
You have literally changed your entire
trajectory with one performance.
1313
01:16:39,933 --> 01:16:41,500
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
1314
01:16:41,566 --> 01:16:43,466
-Howie?
-You know, you're right.
1315
01:16:43,533 --> 01:16:46,100
You are not only the pride of Africa,
and youth, and the world.
1316
01:16:46,166 --> 01:16:48,666
You make us so proud
to be part of this world,
1317

and to have you on this planet.
1318

talent-filled final
that I have ever been part of.

is your choir leader.

Tomorrow night, we get the results.
1329
01:17:22,666 --> 01:17:25,800
Your votes will decide who has won.
1330
01:17:25,866 --> 01:17:28,600
Keep voting,
it's never been more important.
