THE JUDGES SAID --

BETTER
THE BEST PART WAS WHEN SIMON
SAID --

INCREDIBLY BRAVE TO COME HERE.
>> HE CALLED ME BRAVE.
AND THEN THE JUDGES DID
SOMETHING UNBELIEVABLE
THEY GAVE ME A SPECIAL GOLDEN
BUZZER FROM ALL OF THEM.
IT WAS THE BEST MOMENT OF MY
LIFE
AND THEN THE LIVE SHOWS HAVE
BEEN SO AWESOME.
>> THIS PERFORMANCE WAS MIC DROP

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
>> Terry: IT CAN BE TOUGH TO
FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS ON YOUR OWN
BUT THIS COMEDIAN HAS ALWAYS HAD
THE VERY BEST SUPPORT THERE IS
CAN IT TAKE HER ALL THE WAY TO
THE TITLE?
FROM THE BRONX, NEW YORK, HERE'S
GINA BRILLON
>> NOW THAT I'M A MOM, I REALIZE
MORE THAN EVER THE IMPORTANCE OF
HAVING THE SUPPORT OF YOUR
PARENTS.
AND MY PARENTS HAVE TAUGHT ME A
LOT, A LOT ABOUT NOT GIVING UP,
ABOUT STRENGTH, ABOUT
PERSEVERANCE BECAUSE MY PARENTS
HAVE HAD EVERY SINGLE JOB YOU
CAN POSSIBLY IMAGINE TO SUPPORT
THEIR FIVE KIDS.
MY MOM CLEANED HOUSES.
MY DAD SOLD EVERYTHING FROM
SHOES TO CAR OIL TO CANDY.
AND THEY NEVER SAID ANYTHING
THEY NEVER SAID, WE'RE TIRED
THEY JUST DID IT
AND MIRACULOUSLY, THERE WAS FOOD
ON THE TABLE
I KNEW HOW HARD THEY WERE
WORKING, AND IT JUST STAYED IN
MY BRAIN
THEY SHOWED ME, YOU DON'T THROW
IN THE TOWEL
YOU KEEP PUSHING
AND I BOUGHT ROUGHT THAT WORK ETHIC T
STANDUP COMEDY
I DIDN'T GIVE UP NO MATTER HOW
HARD IT GOT.
>> READY TO WATCH MOMMY?
>> AND NOW MAKING IT TO THE
FINAL MEANS THAT TONIGHT I COULD
MAKE HISTORY
LIKE, I COULD BE THE FIRST
COMEDIAN TO WIN, NOT JUST A
COMIC, BUT A MOM, A LATINA FROM
THE BRONX.
SO MANY PEOPLE, SO MANY HOPES
AND DREAMS ARE IN THIS MOMENT.
>> WE'RE VERY PROUD OF HER, AND
IT'S JUST OVERWHELMING
>> TO US, GINA IS ALREADY A
WINNER
>> I'M HERE TONIGHT BECAUSE OF
EVERYTHING THAT MY PARENTS HAD
INSTILLED IN ME.
AND WHEN I TAKE THAT STAGE, I'M
GOING TO BE SHOWING MY SON
ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
*
>> I HAD TO GIVE YOU SOMETHING
HAD TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE EXTRA
FOR THE FINALS
THANK YOU.
YES, YES
FEEL THAT WAY ABOUT THIS LOOK
TOO, GUYS.
I FEEL THAT WAY ABOUT THIS LOOK
TOO.
I AM EXCITED TO BE HERE.
I'M SO EXCITED TO BE HERE.
NOT JUST BECAUSE IT'S THE
FINALS, BUT IT'S ALSO MY FOUR
YEAR WEDDING ANNIVERSARY THIS
MONTH.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU FOR CLAPPING BECAUSE
IT AIN'T EASY.
MARRIAGE IS NOT EASY, RIGHT?
YOU'RE NOT ALWAYS GONNA SEE EYE
TO EYE
YOU'VE GOT TO BE PREPARED TO
ARGUE, RIGHT
LUCKY FOR MY HUSBAND, I WAKE UP
EVERY DAY READY TO FIGHT
YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT
YEAH, WE ARGUE AND WE FIGHT, BUT
WE'RE BOTH IN THERAPY.
YEAH, YOU EVER ARGUE WITH A
HEALTHY PERSON
IT IS ANNOYING
BECAUSE WE GET INTO THESE BIG
BLOW UP FIGHTS AND I COME BACK
IN AND I'M LIKE, I REALIZE MY
REACTION TO THE PREVIOUS
SITUATION IS BASED ON TRAUMA
FROM A FORMER RELATIONSHIP THAT
I SHOULDN'T BRING INTO THIS
CURRENT SPACE.
YEAH, I KNOW
AND THEN MY HUSBAND'S LIKE, "I
WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I HEAR YOU
AND I SEE YOU.
AND I'M LIKE, "I DON'T LIKE US
I DON'T LIKE US RIGHT NOW.
I DON'T WANT TO BE THAT COUPLE."
YOU GOT TO APPRECIATE THE LITTLE
THINGS, RIGHT?
LIKE I APPRECIATE THE FACT THAT
MY HUSBAND IS FORGETFUL.
BECAUSE IT WORKS OUT IN MY
FAVOR.
A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO WHEN I WAS
TRAVELING WITH OUR SON AND HE
FORGOT THAT I CAN STILL SEE THE
BABY MONITOR THAT'S AT HOME.
YEAH
AND I GOT A NOTIFICATION THAT
THERE WAS MOTION AND SOUND IN MY
BEDROOM.
AND I THOUGHT, SHALL WE
INVESTIGATE?
SO, I DID.
I OPENED UP THE APP, AND I SAW
MY HUSBAND HAVING A FAKE
ARGUMENT WITH ME
AND HE WAS GETTING INTO IT
HE LOOKED LIKE A BATTLE RAPPER
HE WAS LIKE --
I WOULD HAVE BEEN MAD, BUT I
COULDN'T STOP LAUGHING AT HOW HE
THINKS HE'S GOING TO TALK TO ME
DURING OUR NEXT ARGUMENT
RIGHT?
I'M LIKE, WHAT
I WAS LIKE, IMAGINARY ME, YOU
GONE PUT UP WITH THAT?
BECAUSE NOT REAL ME, RIGHT
YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW YOUR
OPPONENT
THAT'S HOW YOU WIN
ME AND MY HUSBAND KNOW EACH
OTHER VERY WELL.
MY BIGGEST FLAW HE HAS TO DEAL
WITH, I'M A JEALOUS WOMAN.
NOBODY LIKES JEALOUS PEOPLE.
WE KNOW.
STOP TELLING US.
EVERY BOYFRIEND I EVER SAID HAD
WHY DON'T YOU JUST TRUST ME.
NO, THAT'S NOT HOW THIS WORKS.
NO, PUT ON YOUR ANKLE MONITOR
AND GO HAVE FUN.
I'LL BE WATCHING
THANK YOU.
I'M GRATEFUL FOR YOUR TIME,
GUYS
>> Terry: GINA BRILLON!
HOWIE?
>> Howie: GINA, FIRST OF ALL,
YOU LOOK GREAT
>> THANK YOU
>> Howie: SECONDLY, YOU ARE
GREAT AND YOU'RE REALLY FUNNY.
I JUST WANT TO SAY THIS BECAUSE
I NEED TO.
ONE OF THE GREATS OF COMEDY
PASSED TODAY, NORM MACDONALD
PASSED TODAY AND IT BROKE MY
HEART.
HAVING YOU AND SEEING YOU AND
JOSH ON THE SHOW TODAY BRINGS US
BACK AND LETS US KNOW THAT
LAUGHTER IS STILL ALIVE AND
LAUGHTER IS THE BEST MEDICINE.
SO ACTION THANK YOU FOR BEING
HERE, THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU.
>> THANK YOU
>> Heidi: I WAS CRACKING UP AND
THINKING THE SAME THING WITH SO
MUCH SADNESS IN THE WORLD, IT IS
SO NICE TO SIT HERE AND LISTEN
TO YOU, HEAR EVERYBODY LAUGH
YOU ARE ALREADY A WINNER
BUT WHO KNOW, MAYBE TOMORROW A
WINNER WITH A MILLION DOLLARS.
>> Terry: SOFIA
>> Sofia: GINA, I LOVE THAT
YOU'RE SO COMFORTABLE ON STAGE
THAT MADE US SO COMFORTABLE
WATCHING YOU
IT'S AMAZING WHAT YOU DO
YOU'RE RELATABLE
YOU'RE FUNNY
AND I LOVE THAT YOUR MATERIAL
COMES FROM A WOMAN'S POINT OF
VIEW, WHICH I ENJOY AND I ADORE.
>> Terry: SIMON
>> THANK YOU
>> Simon: I THINK BEING A
COMEDIAN IS THE HARDEST THING TO
DO
I THINK IT'S HARDER THAN WHAT
SOME OF THE VARIETY ACTS, HARDER
THAN THE SINGERS
I'M REALLY CURIOUS BECAUSE I
ADORE YOU, GINA, BY THE WAY.
AND YOUR FILM, I LOVE YOU IN THE
FILM, AS WELL.
TELL ME WHAT WINNING MEANS TO
YOU, GINA.
>> WINNING MEANS TO ME MAKING
HISTORY.
THAT'S WHAT WINS MEANS
IT'S A WIN FOR COMICS, FOR
LATINAS, FOR MOMS, AND FOR
EVERYBODY THAT HAS A DREAM
BIGGER THAN THEY CAN IMAGINE
>> Terry: GOOD LUCK TONIGHT,
GINA
LISTEN, GINA CANNOT WIN WITHOUT
YOU, SO VOTE

BETWEEN THEM AND WINNING IT ALL!
IT'S THE WORLD TAEKWONDO
DEMONSTRATION TEAM
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
>> TAEKWONDO IS NOT JUST A
SPORT.
IT'S A WAY OF LIFE
>> AND FOR EVERY ONE OF US, IT
MEANS SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
FOR ME, IT'S TRUST, FRIENDSHIP
AND COURAGE.
>> FOR ME, TAEKWONDO IS RESPECT
AND DISCIPLINE
>> FOR ME, IT'S HOPE
>> THIS JOURNEY HAS GIVEN US AN
UNBREAKABLE BOND AND IT'S
ABSOLUTELY MADE US STRONGER.
>> WORLD TAEKWONDO DEMONSTRATION
TEAM
>> A MOMENT LIKE THAT, IT COULD
BE REALLY EASY TO LET WORDS OF
DOUBT COME INTO OUR HEAD
I LOST MY DAD AT A YOUNG AGE
BEFORE HE PASSED AWAY, MY DAD
ACTUALLY DECIDED TO SIGN MYSELF
AND MY TWO OLDER BROTHERS UP TO
TAEKWONDO BECAUSE HE WAS A HUGE
FAN OF WHAT WORKING AS A TEAM
CAN OFFER FOR KIDS
SO, IN THAT MOMENT OF DOUBT --
I THINK ABOUT HIM BECAUSE I KNOW
HE'S WATCHING ME
SO, NOW I TOLD MYSELF NO MATTER
WHAT IT IS, BE STRONG, BE
DILIGENT AND NEVER GIVE UP
SO, FOR ME, TAEKWONDO IS LOVE,
PEACE AND FAMILY
>> Simon: THE ACT WE'RE PUTTING
THROUGH IS WORLD TAEKWONDO
>> WE WERE SO CLOSE TO GOING
HOME, BUT WE WERE GIVEN A SECOND
CHANCE TO GO ALL THE WAY
AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE GOING TO
DO TONIGHT
>> WE WERE ONE STEP AWAY FROM
HAVING OUR OWN VEGAS SHOW, THAT
FINISHLINE, AND WE'RE GOING TO
TAKE THAT STEP TOGETHER.

THE ENTIRE TIME!
YES!
AND WHEN YOU GO TO VEGAS, YOU
WANT SOMETHING EXCITING.

WRITTEN ALL OVER IT.
I STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW
YOU'RE DOING IT.
YOU'RE WALKING STAIRS IN THE
AIR.
IT'S INSANE WHAT YOU DO!
AH
>> Terry: SIMON, ARE YOU
SCREAMING INSIDE
>> Simon: I'VE GOT TO BE HONEST
WITH YOU
I WAS GETTING A BIT BORED OF
YOU.
>> Heidi: NO

BLOODY BRILLIANT
IT WAS SYNCHRONIZED BRILLIANCE
THAT IS HOW YOU PUT ON A SHOW.
AS HOWIE SAID, BEST ACT OF THE

*
>> Terry: EVERYBODY WANTS TO
STAND OUT FROM THE CROWD, AND
WINNING "AGT" WILL DO THAT FOR
YOU.
THIS YOUNG AERIALIST WAS REALLY
STRUGGLING
THEN A RANDOM EVENT CHANGED
EVERYTHING AND SET HIM ON COURSE
TO MAYBE WINNING THIS WHOLE
COMPETITION.
FROM PRINCE GEORGE, VIRGINIA, HE
IS AIDAN BRYANT.
>> SINCE I WAS YOUNGER, I'VE
ALWAYS BEEN A LITTLE BIT
DIFFERENT.
I WASN'T REALLY SURE WHERE I FIT
IN WITH EVERYBODY IN SCHOOL OR
SPORTS
IT DEFINITELY FELT LIKE THERE
WAS A MISSING PIECE IN MY LIFE
AND THEN WHEN I WAS 14, I WAS
WATCHING VIDEOS ONLINE
I SAW A VIDEO OF PINK AT ONE OF
HER CONCERTS AND SHE WAS FLYING
AND DOING CRAZY STUNTS
I HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE
THIS BEFORE, AND IT REALLY HAD
AN IMPACT ON ME.
AND I KNEW I WANTED TO DO THAT
TOO.
SO, THAT'S WHEN I WENT INTO MY
GRANDMA'S CLOSET AND GOT OUT THE
QUEEN SIZED BED SHEETS
I WAS NERVOUS.
I WAS SCARED
BUT I'VE ALWAYS WANTED SOME WAY
TO EXPRESS MYSELF.
AND THEN I FINALLY JUST LET GO
AND IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST
MOMENTS OF MY LIFE
WHEN I WAS UP IN THE AIR FLYING,
I FEEL LIKE I CAN BE MYSELF.
I CAN ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING.
AND NOW I'M IN THE FINALS OF THE
"AGT."
>> IT'S BEEN AN AMAZING
EXPERIENCE TO WATCH MY SON GROW.
I AM PROUD OF AIDAN FOR
EVERYTHING HE'S DONE
>> I FINALLY FOUND SOMETHING I'M
GOOD AT.
EVERY TIME I STEP OUT ON THAT
STAGE, I FEEL MORE CONFIDENT
AERIAL IS THE MISSING PIECE IN
MY LIFE.
IF I COULD SAY ANYTHING TO
MYSELF WHEN I FIRST STARTED, I
WOULD SAY, KEEP WORKING HARD
BECAUSE THIS JOURNEY IS GOING TO
BE AMAZING
AND TONIGHT IS GOING TO BE THE
BIGGEST PERFORMANCE OF MY LIFE

>> Announcer: COMING UP --
>> HEIDI, WHAT'S A WORD THAT
COMES TO MIND?
>> CURIOUS
>> YOU'RE VERY EMOTIONAL AND
MAGICAL.
I LOVE YOU
>> I DIDN'T LIKE IT.
I LOVED IT
*
>> Terry: JUST WHEN YOU THINK
YOU'VE GOT LIFE WORKED OUT, IT
THROWS YOU A CURVEBALL
THAT IS DEFINITELY TRUE FOR THIS
MAGICIAN
BUT NOW LIFE HAS LED HIM TO THE
VERGE OF WINNING "AGT.
CAN HE GO ALL THE WAY?
FROM PENNSYLVANIA, HERE'S DUSTIN
TAVELLA.
>> LOOKING BACK AT MY LIFE AND
THINKING OF ALL THESE MEMORIES
THAT BROUGHT ME TO THIS PLACE,
IT FILLED ME WITH ALL THESE
UNEXPECTED MOMENTS
GROWING UP, MY FAMILY DEFINITELY
WENT THROUGH DARK TIMES.
BUT AS A 9-YEAR-OLD KID, MAGIC
UNEXPECTEDLY CAME INTO MY LIFE
>> DID YOU KNOW DADDY USED TO
PAINT UP LIKE A CLOWN AND DO
MAGIC?
SHOULD I DO MY FIES LIKE THAT ON
"AMERICA'S GOT TALENT"
I SHOULD
THERE'S MOMMY SMILING.
>> WHEN I MET CARRIE, SHE
ENCOURAGED ME TO LIVE OUT MY
DREAMS
AS SOON AS WE GOT MARRIED,
CARRIE GOT PREGNANT.
AND AT ALMOST FOUR MONTHS, WE
LOST THAT BABY
EVERYTHING, BEING SO HELPLESS.
BUT AT THE EXACT SAME TIME THAT
WE WERE DUE TO HAVE THAT CHILD
WAS WHEN XANDER CAME INTO OUR
LIFE
I REMEMBER HOLDING HIM FOR THE
FIRST TIME, AND I DIDN'T KNOW
ANYTHING COULD FEEL LIKE THAT.
AND THEN WE ADOPTED SILAS, HIS
OLDER BROTHER.
MY WIFE AND MY BOYS, THOSE
UNEXPECTED MOMENTS I WOULD
CONSIDER THE MOST REAL MAGIC
I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED.
I AM ONE PERFORMANCE AWAY FROM
POSSIBLY WINNING THIS
COMPETITION.
AND TONIGHT I WANT XANDER AND
SILAS TO KNOW YOU NEVER HAVE TO
STOP CHASING YOUR DREAMS
NO MATTER HOW HARD LIFE GETS,
THERE'S ALWAYS SOME KIND OF
MAGIC AHEAD OF YOU
>> WHAT'S UP, GUYS
HOW YOU DOING EVERYBODY?
YOU GUYS GOOD?
SO, SO, SO GOOD TO BE BACK
SO, I WAS THINKING ABOUT WHAT I
WANTED TO DO FOR TONIGHT, I
ACTUALLY REALIZED THAT TOMORROW
IS MY PARENTS' 37th ANNIVERSARY.
SO, I THOUGHT I WOULD SHOW THEM
A LITTLE LOVE.
YOU GUYS CAN GIVE IT UP.
THEY'RE AMAZING.
YEAH
I LOVE CELEBRATING MY PARENTS'
ANNIVERSARY BECAUSE WHEN I WAS
YOUNG, MY PARENTS' MARRIAGE
ACTUALLY FELL APART.
OUR FAMILY WAS A MESS.
AND THE FIRST TIME THAT I
EXPERIENCED MAGIC, IT WASN'T A
CARD TRICK AND IT WASN'T A COIN
TRICK.
IT WAS A PERSON.
SOMEONE STEPPED INTO MY PARENTS'
LIVES, HELPED THEM GET SOBER AND
BACK ON THEIR FEET
THEY HELPED PUT MY FAMILY BACK
TOGETHER SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY
CARED.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
I HAD EVERYBODY IN THE AUDIENCE
WRITE DOWN A WAY THAT THEY COULD
IMPACT JUST ONE LIFE
SEE, TONIGHT FOR THE FINALS OF
"AMERICA'S GOT TALENT," AS MUCH
AS I WOULD LOVE TO STAND HERE
AND TRY AND IMPRESS YOU GUYS
WITH MORE MAGIC, WHAT I HOPE TO
DO IS REMIND YOU, ALL OF YOU,
THAT YOU ARE THE MAGIC
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
COULD YOU GUYS ALL TAKE YOUR
PIECE OF PAPERS, CRUMBLE THEM
INTO A BALL AND HOLD THEM ABOVE
YOUR HEAD?
ON THE COUNT OF THREE, I'M GOING
TO HAVE YOU GUYS THROW ALL THOSE
PAPER BALLS TO THE JUDGES'
TABLE.
SO, JUDGES, WATCH OUT.
HERE WE GO, 1-2-3.
GO AHEAD AND THROW THEM.
[ LAUGHTER ]
SO, THEY'RE -- THEY'RE STILL
COMING
IT'S AMAZING
THERE ARE OVER 2,000 PEOPLE IN
THIS THEATER TONIGHT, WHICH
MEANS IF EVERYONE COMMITS TO
WHAT THEY WROTE DOWN, MAYBE
THAT'S 2,000 LIVES THAT COULD BE
CHANGED.
AND IF EVERYONE WATCHING FROM
HOME DOES THE SAME THING, MAYBE
THAT'S MILLIONS MORE
HOWIE, HEIDI, SOFIA, SIMON, I
WANT EACH OF YOU GUYS TO GRAB
JUST ONE PAPER BALL.
ANY ONE THAT YOU WANT.
JUST SELECT ONE.
IT COULD BE ANY ONE.
IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE ONE RIGHT
IN FRONT OF YOU EITHER
SIMON'S DECIDING WHAT TO DO.
>> He
>> Sofia: I HAVE ONE RIGHT HERE.
>> HEIDI CHANGED HER MIND.
HEIDI KLUM
>> Heidi: I OPEN IT?
>> YOU GUYS ALL GOT ONE?
CAN WE WELCOME TERRY CREWS OUT
HERE
TERRY, CAN YOU COME OUT HERE AND
JOIN US?
GIVE IT UP FOR TERRY CREWS
TERRY, I'M GOING TO HAVE YOU
HOLD ONTO THIS PEN
BE CAREFUL
IT IS SHARP.
WE'RE GOING TO USE A PAPER FROM
ONE OF THE JUDGES.
WHICH JUDGE'S PAPER BALL DO YOU
WANT TO USE?
>> SIMON
CHANGE YOUR MIND OR ARE YOU?
GOOD
>> I'M GOING TO TAKE THAT FOR
YOU.
I'M GOING TO KEEP THIS AS FAIR
AS I CAN
WE HAVE ACTUALLY TERRY DO
SOMETHING FOR ME
I'M GOING TO HAVE YOU JUST TELL
EVERYBODY WHAT THIS SAYS
>> Terry: IT SAYS, GIVE MY COOL
CLOTHES TO ANOTHER KID THAT
NEEDS THEM
>> THAT'S AMAZING.
YEAH
I GAVE YOU THAT PEN.
WOULD YOU MIND POPPING THAT
BALLOON?
>> Terry: RIGHT NOW
>> YES, PLEASE POP IT.
DID YOU SEE THAT PAPER THAT JUST
CAME OUT
>> Terry: YEAH, YEAH.
>> THAT PAPER'S BEEN IN THIS
BALLOON THIS WHOLE TIME.
OUT OF THOUSANDS OF PAPER BALLS,
YOU GUYS SELECTED THIS ONE
IF YOU CAN UNFOLD THAT PAPER AND
SHOW EVERYBODY WHAT IT SAYS.
>> Terry: IT SAYS -- WOW.
>> GIVE SOME OF MY CLOTHES TO
ANOTHER KID WHO NEEDS THEM
>> Terry: OH, WOW
>> THANK YOU, GUYS
YOU CAN SIT DOWN
THANK YOU.
GIVE IT UP ONE MORE TIME FOR
TERRY CREWS.
SO, ACTUALLY WHO WROTE THIS, BY
THE WAY.
CAN YOU STAND UP
WHO WROTE THIS
OVER HERE.
DUDE, FIRST OF ALL, THIS IS
AMAZING.
YOU'RE NEVER TOO YOUNG TO MAKE A
DIFFERENCE, MAN.
HOLD ONTO THAT GENEROUS SPIRIT
YOU'LL GO FURTHER THAN YOU'LL
EVER KNOW.
SECOND, I LOVE THAT WHAT YOU
WROTE STARTED WITH THE WORD
"GIVE" BECAUSE GIVING IS A
FOUNDATION OF CHANGE
GIVING YOUR TIME, GIVING YOUR
RESOURCES, GIVING YOURSELF
SEE, WHEN SOMEONE STEPPED INTO
MY PARENTS' LIVES, BECAUSE THEY
WERE WILLING TO GIVE, IT CHANGED
THE COURSE OF THEIR FUTURE,
WHICH IN TURN CHANGED THE COURSE
OF MINE.
AND THAT IMPACT HAS NOW EVEN
REACHED TO OUR TWO BOYS.
AND BECAUSE OF THAT PERSON, I
GET TO STAND ON THIS STAGE AND
DO WHAT I LOVE
IT'S LIKE THAT ONE LITTLE THING
JUST KEEPS GOING, SOMETHING SO
SEEMINGLY SMALL CAN BECOME SO
MUCH MORE THAN WHAT WE MIGHT
HAVE EVER EXPECTED
THAT IS THE POWER OF GIVING.
CAN EVERYONE GRAB ONE OF THOSE
PIECES OF PAPER.
HOLD THEM TO THE CAMERA.
THIS IS MY REMINDER TO YOU GUYS
THAT A SMALL ACT OF KINDNESS CAN
GO A REALLY LONG WAY
JUDGES, AUDIENCE, AMERICA, THANK
YOU FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE
GIVEN ME
I AM SO INCREDIBLY GRATEFUL.
GOD BLESS YOU.
I'M DUSTIN TAVELLA
THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH
THANK YOU.
>> Terry: DUSTIN TAVELLA.
SIMON, YOU ENJOYED THAT.
>> Simon: DUSTIN, YOU REALLY ARE
AMAZING.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I SAID THIS ABOUT YOU BEFORE
YOU ARE JUST AN AMAZING STORY
TELLER, AND I AM SO HAPPY THAT
YOU ENTERED THE SHOW
I'M SO HAPPY AMERICA HAS PUT YOU
ON THIS STAGE.
I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU.
AND I'M NOT A MAGICIAN, BUT LET
ME MAKE A PREDICTION
THERE WILL BE TWO PEOPLE
STANDING ON STAGE TOMORROW
NIGHT, AND I BELIEVE AT THE END
YOU WILL BE ONE OF THEM.
>> SOFIA
>> WELL, I THINK THAT YOU HAVE
FOUND YOUR LANE, AND YOU HAVE
STUCK TO IT, AND I THINK THAT'S
VERY INTELLIGENT OF YOU.
I THINK AMERICA IS IN LOVE WITH
WHAT YOU HAVE DONE
YOU KNOW THE MIX IN OF YOUR REAL
LIFE WITH YOUR MAGIC AND
INTERACTING WITH ALL OF US, IT'S
BEEN GREAT
SO, GOOD LUCK TOMORROW
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH
>> Terry: HOWIE
>> Howie: WELL, I THINK YOU JUST
GIVE YOURSELF OR GAVE YOURSELF A
SHOT AT WINNING THIS WHOLE
THING.
I THINK THAT WHAT YOU DO WITH
EMOTION AND HUMANITY AND
RELATABILITY, YOU MAKE THE
IMPOSSIBLE POSSIBLE.
>> THANKS MAN.
THAT MEANS SO MUCH
THANK YOU.
>> Terry: ALL RIGHT
GOOD LUCK TONIGHT, DUSTIN.
DO YOU WANT DUSTIN TO MAKE YOUR
FAMILY PROUD AND WIN IT ALL?
THEN VOTE.
YOU REALLY CAN MAKE A
DIFFERENCE
SO, MAKE SURE THE WINNER IS THE
ACT YOU WANT
NOW, A COMEDIAN HAS NEVER ONE
"AGT," BUT JOSH BLUE WILL BE
HOPING TO CHANGE ALL OF THAT
HE GETS HIS SHOT AT THE TITLE
*
>> Terry: TOMORROW NIGHT, WE
FIND OUT WHOSE LIFE IS GOING TO
BE TURNED UPSIDE-DOWN AS THEY
BECOME A MAJOR NEW GLOBAL STAR
IT'S GOING TO BE A SENSATIONAL
SHOW
WE'VE GOT THE TOP TEN PERFORMING
MASHUPS AND TAKING THE STAGE,
STARS LIKE BISHOP BRIGGS
IDINA MENZEL, MAT FRANCO,
PENTATONIX AND OLYMPIC MEDALISTS
JORDAN CHILES AND
MYKAYLA SKINNER.
AND OF COURSE, ONE ACT WILL WIN
THE WORLD'S GREATEST PRIZE
IT ALL COMES TO A SENSATIONAL
FINISH IN THE RESULTS FINALE,
TOMORROW NIGHT AT 9:00,
8:00 CENTRAL
YES, WE'RE AN HOUR LATER THAN
USUAL AT 9:00.
BE HERE.
OKAY, HERE'S A COMEDIAN WHO HAS
BEEN MAKING AMERICA LAUGH EVER
SINCE THE AUDITIONS.
BUT EVERY PERFORMANCE HAS HIDDEN
HIS OWN PRIVATE STRUGGLE
TONIGHT IT'S HIS CHANCE TO
CHANGE HIS STORY AND HIS LIFE.
HE'S FROM DENVER, COLORADO
HERE'S JOSH BLUE
>> I'VE BEEN VERY FORTUNATE IN
MY LIFE.
I HAVE A BEAUTIFUL FAMILY.
I'VE FLOWN ACROSS THIS COUNTRY
THOUSANDS OF TIMES MAKING PEOPLE
LAUGH.
I CAN'T REALLY SEE ME DOING
ANYTHING ELSE BESIDES THIS
BUT BECAUSE OF THE WAY MY BODY
MOVES, IT'S BREAKING DOWN FASTER
THAN A NORMAL BODY WOULD
AND I'M NOT A DOCTOR BUT I'M
PRETTY SURE ONCE YOU REACH YOUR
40s THINGS DON'T GET BETTER.
RIGHT NOW I AM IN THE WORST PAIN
OF MY LIFE
IT BRINGS TEARS TO MY EYES
MY BRAIN IS GOING, WARNING,
WARNING, YOU ARE HURTING
YOURSELF
BUT I REALIZE IT'S NOT GOING TO
GET BETTER BY LETTING IT BEAT
YOU.
WHEN I'M ON STAGE IT REALLY DOES
FEEL LIKE LOVE IS SURROUNDING
ME
I FEEL LIKE I CAN WIN OVER THE
PHYSICAL PAIN.
SINCE BEING ON THE SHOW, THE
AMOUNT OF LOVE FROM EVERYBODY IS
AMAZING.
IT GIVES ME GOOSEBUMPS
NOW MY KIDS ACTUALLY LIKE ME
NO, I'M JUST KIDDING
THEY DON'T
I REALLY WANT THEM TO GO, MY DAD
WAS ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH THESE
AMAZING THINGS, AND I CAN TOO.
ALL THOSE PLANE RIDES, ALL THOSE
SHOWS, ALL THIS PAIN HAS LED TO
THIS MOMENT.
BEING IN VEGAS AND, LIKE, SEEING
MY FACE ON A BILLBOARD WOULD BE
AMAZING.
IT'S TIME FOR A COMIC TO WIN
"AGT."
IT REALLY IS

>> THANK YOU
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
THIS HAS BEEN SO MUCH FUN.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
WOW.
TODAY I WAS OUTSIDE.
SOMEBODY STOPPED ME ON THE
STREET LIKE, HEY, MAN, DID I SEE
YOU ON TV?
I WAS LIKE, WELL, HOW THE HELL
AM I SUPPOSED TO KNOW?
IF YOU DON'T KNOW?
SO, I'M SURE YOU NOTICED THE
ARM.
I CALL IT MY NOCTURNAL ARM
BECAUSE WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN,
IT'S GOT STUFF TO DO
I'M TRYING TO SLEEP.
IT'S UP WRITING EMAIL.
I'M LIKE, WHO CAN YOU POSSIBLY
BE WRITING TO, LIKE SOME
CLUBFOOT IN KANSAS
ALSO, I CAN'T SLEEP TOO CLOSE TO
THE INTERNET BECAUSE GETS ONLINE
AND ORDERS STUFF
I COME HOME, THERE'S A BOX ON
THE PORCH.
HE'S ALL LIKE, SIGNING
LIKE, WHAT DID YOU DO?
OPEN IT UP
IT'S ONE BEDAZZLED GLOVE
I'M NOT PUTTING THAT ON YOU,
DUDE
GOT TO GET YOUR CLUBFOOT BUDDY
TO HELP.
YOU GUYS REMEMBER FROM EARLIER
SEEMED LIKE YOU DIDN'T REMEMBER
AT ALL
ONLY SO FAR I CAN DUMB THIS
DOWN, GUYS
I STILL DON'T KNOW WHERE HE GOT
THE WATCH.
BEEN TRYING TO GET IT OFF HIM
FOR WEEKS.
I'M PRETTY SURE HE'S GETTING,
LIKE, 78,000 STEPS A DAY
OH, NO, OH
YOU KNOW, I USED TO THINK I HAD
A WAY WITH ANIMALS, AND THEN I
REALIZED I JUST MAKE A LOT OF
CRUMBS
YEAH, JUST GOT A PACK OF RANDOM
DOGS FOLLOWING ME AROUND HOPING
I'LL GET INTO A MUFFIN OR
SOMETHING.
I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I'VE
TRIED TO GO INTO A RESTAURANT
AND THEY'RE LIKE, YOU CAN'T
BRING YOUR DOGS IN HERE.
I'M LIKE, THESE AIN'T MY DOGS!
OH, YEAH
DID YOU GUYS KNOW THAT BOTOX WAS
ORIGINALLY BEING INVENTED TO
HELP PEOPLE WITH CEREBRAL PALSY?
YEAH, I JUST LEARNED THIS.
THEY WERE DEVELOPING IT, TRYING
TO FIND A WAY TO INJECT THE
MUSCLE SO THAT IT WOULDN'T DO
THAT
AND THEN SOMEWHERE ALONG THE
WAY, THEY DISCOVERED THAT BOTOX
ALSO MAKES WRINKLES GO AWAY.
AND THEN THEY WERE LIKE, WELL,
FORGET CEREBRAL PALSY.
WE COULD REALLY BE HELPING
PEOPLE
GOD FORBID YOU HAD A CROW FOOT
THE GUY WITH THE TWISTY ARM CAN
WAIT
I LOVE THAT JOKE BECAUSE I'M
SURE YOU CAN FEEL THERE'S LIKE A
WEIRD VIBE THAT KIND OF MOVES
THROUGH THE ROOM
WHAT THAT IS IS THAT'S JUST ALL
THE PEOPLE WITH BOTOX TRYING TO
FROWN.

THANK YOU!

REMEMBER LAST TIME, SIMON ASKED
FOR THIS
I REMEMBER SIMON SAID YOU SHOULD
BE NAUGHTIER NEXT TIME AND YOU
DELIVERED.

AND SOUL

CHAMPIONS?
NORTHWELL HEALTH NURSE CHOIR
SING FOR THE WIN RIGHT AFTER THE
*
>> Terry: THERE AREN'T MANY
PEOPLE WHO WORK HARDER, OR WITH
MORE DEDICATION, THAN NURSES
SO IT'S PRETTY INCREDIBLE TO
THINK SOME OF THEM ALSO FORMED A
CHOIR IN THEIR SPARE TIME.
BUT THEY DID, AND NOW THEY ARE
ONE STEP AWAY FROM WINNING
"AGT."
IT'S HOWIE'S GOLDEN BUZZER
HERE'S NORTHWELL HEALTH NURSE
CHOIR.
>> WHAT MAKES THIS CHOIR SO
SPECIAL IS THAT WE'RE FRONTLINE
NURSES IN THE TRENCHES
AND TOGETHER WE BUILT THIS
BEAUTIFUL SOUND.
>> WE ALL BECAME NURSES BECAUSE
WE LOVE CARING FOR PEOPLE.
>> I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD BE A
NURSE, BUT WHAT I WAS IN MIDDLE
SCHOOL, I REMEMBER BEING SO
SCARED
BUT I HAD TWO NURSES THAT MADE
ME FEEL LIKE I WAS AT HOME
THOSE NURSES CHANGED MY LIFE
AND I WANTED TO DO THE SAME
THING FOR OTHERS
I WANT TO BE THE LIGHT IN
SOMEBODY ELSE'S LIFE
>> WHEN COVID HIT, IT LITERALLY
DEVASTATED OUR FIELD
>> BUT NURSES DO NOT GIVE UP
WE ARE GOING TO BE HERE FOR YOU
NO MATTER WHAT
>> BEING IN THE FINALS OF
"AMERICA'S GOT TALENT" IS A
DREAM WE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WE
WERE ALLOWED TO HAVE
>> WHEN WE SING TOGETHER ON
"AGT," IT TRULY REMINDS US OF
ALL THE GOOD THIS WORLD HAS TO
OFFER.
THERE'S ALWAYS HOPE TO BE FOUND.
AND THAT'S -- THAT'S A MIRACLE
