Day 2 of Orlando brought us Simeon Mulder and Harmonik in America’s Got Talent Season 5 Episode 6. Now we head to Portland.
Magique (really?) Bazaar is more bizarre than magical. The act is apparently to keep changing into different masks. Then fall off the stage.
Living Dead Girlz are a zombie dance group that are not as hot as they think. Continuing the horror theme, Bloody Maggie and Her Pet come out on to stage. She’s actually a social worker. Vee Bee sings on the trapeze. At least she doesn’t break anything. Tiny Talent is a bunch of chihuahuas that run around randomly on stage.
Jeremy is from Talent, OR. He does a bunch of stunts on a bike while hovering over Nick Cannon’s face. Once he’s done torturing Nick, he heads on to platforms to attempt some more stunts. This guy will be lucky if he doesn’t bust his head open, but he’ll be given a second chance to show what else he can do.
Bhangra Empire performs an Indian cultural dance. The Strange Familiar is a talented singing couple. Northwest Dance & Acro is pretty much what it sounds like. These acts all advance to Vegas.
Airpocalypse is an air guitar super group. As opposed to a regular air guitar group I guess. Strangely enough, they’re actually entertaining. I hope they’re wearing more clothes when they return.
Rebecca Roudman plays the cello. It’s like a giant violin. You really can’t turn this into rock, though. Piers is afraid that death will be like this.
Connor Doran flies indoor kites. That’s a real thing? He has epilepsy but hopes to prove he can do things regardless of what he’s told. Angel by Sara McLachlan is a brilliant song choice for this surprisingly touching act.
William Scott Anderson performed magic while in the military to cheer up children. Apparently, his magic act costume is his uniform. He puts a girl in a box, then proceeds to fold that box, followed by jabbing swords through it. He’ll be going to the next round.
Sally Cohn is young (at heart). After putting a block of wood under one foot (because one leg’s shorter than the other) and then lubricating her hands, she does a hand whistle of America the Beautiful. With about 5 notes left to go, Sharon buzzes her. Sally’s actually written a book about hand whistling/coming out, which Howie buys for 12 bucks. It turns out she’s more entertaining as a comedian than she is as a whistler.
