The Myspace auditions in America’s Got Talent Season 4 Episode 9 brought us Bollywood dancers Ishaara and singer/piano player Charles DeWayne Dorsey, Jr.
Tonight is the last night of the auditions.
Best friends Breaksk8 are roller skaters. Piers buzzes, but they’re definitely through to Vegas. David has to think about this. Piers loved everything but the skates. Sharon likes them because the skates make them unique. Piers says no, but the other two say yes.
Ciana Pelekai, 8, is going to sing. She sings At Last from Orchestra Wives, presumably having heard it from Beyonce. Piers tells her to start looking for a new house because he’s never heard someone her age with a voice like that. Hoff thinks there’s nowhere to go but up.
Choir director Joseph James sings Somewhere over the Rainbow. What the bloody hell is this? After the build up, I expected at least something reasonable, but not this joke. Hoff compares him to a balloon losing air.
The Beale Street Flippers started years ago in Memphis, TN. They do flipping, usually for tips on the street. Hoff is flipped out. The best flippers ever on this show. Piers has just two words: flipping incredible.
The auditions have come to an end. With 24 minutes left, they’re apparently reserving the bulk of the show for the Susan Boyle interview, as if I’d switched to Dateline NBC or something. I’d considered watching the interview before I found out how long it was going to be, but enough is too much.
Stay tuned to dingoRUE for another live recap of America’s Got Talent Season 4 Episode 11, which airs Wednesday at 8/7c on NBC.
The only person worth watching was the wonderful Tallen Latz. I will not bewatching America’s Got Talent after tonight.
I’m really disappointed that the focus in recent shows seems to be on milking the suspense regarding whether these talented people will continue to go on. I felt it was unfair to fly a group in and then tell them they didn’t make it. The judges should have been harder during the earlier rounds. Tonight I turned off the show part way through because I felt it was more about judges being misleading, building tension, torturing these performers. To see performers cry for others, isn’t my idea of entertainment, or a revelation of America’s talent. It’s more a sad commentary on judges who are trying to be actors. What’s happening to entertainment and the rush of seeing exceptional Americans performing. (Day 2 Vegas)
I am frustrated that there was no explanation given as to why Ciana Pelekai was summarily sent home from Vagas. The judges all raved about her (deservedly); I want to know why she wasn’t put through …. I am sure there was some reason; I would llike to know what it is.
Especially as compared with the other young singer they let through.
