America’s Got Talent Season 6 Episode 1 kicked things off in Los Angeles and Atlanta with Landon Swank, Vegas Birds, Miami All Stars, and Team iLuminate. Tonight we head to Seattle, the rainy city.
Melissa Villasenor does celebrity/singing impressions, including Miley Cyrus and/or Hannah Montana and d-lister Kathy Griffin. Sharon doesn’t think she’ll be working in retail much longer, and she’s impressed that somebody made Piers laugh.
A+C Twins are under the impression they’re local stars. They are not. Piers makes fun of their singing and weird dancing. Howie bets he’s a better singer than they are. He is.
Anita McCoy shows up on stage with a hula hoop and some batons. This 69 year old forgot to get fully clothed before coming to the show. Howie says yes, but that’s the only vote she’s going to get.
Not getting caught up on technicalities such as the show’s name, Zuma Zuma is a Kenyan acrobatic troupe. They don’t need no stinking mats.
Poplyfe is a music group aged 12-16. They perform what I assume is an original song about being a billionaire. (Sadly, having watched the first episode of this season’s Britain’s Got Talent, it seems to me that this is a real and apparently popular song.) Piers tells the frontgirl to dump the group backing her up, but she’s not willing to go without them.
Sadie is an 8 year old singer without a last name, who Piers asks whether she’s 55. The Elektrolytes are a hip hop dance group that impress the judges with their energy.
Mauricio Herrera claims to be an international superstar. In Costa Rica. Feel free to head back there, dude. He performs Livin La Vida Loca, a song you may recall being popular last century. Because Piers hates his guts, Sharon and Howie invite him to Vegas.
Carlton Baltimore has been a paper horn player for 50 years. The fact that this is a complete waste of time is lost on everybody other than Piers. In Piers’ absence (after he walks off stage), Sharon comes to her senses and votes no.
