Jessica Price has a sad story and turned out to be sweet as apple pie. Here’s a video of her singing and guitar playing on America’s Got Talent 3 Episode 3.

Junior and Emily Alabi are competitive salsa dancing brother and sister. Here’s a video of their performance on America’s Got Talent 3 Episode 3.

Beyond Belief is a group of young dancers from Texas. Here’s a video of their performance on America’s Got Talent 3 Episode 3.

Paul West and his dog Tucker performed an acrobatic frisbee act on America’s Got Talent. Check out the video of their first performance.

Corky Duke is the “king of line dancing.” He says he could teach a zebra to line dance (now that would be a talent I’d like to see). Piers buzzes him. Then Hasselhoff. Sharon gives him some time to be in his misery but finally goes along with the boys.

Holly Hardin, who is not sure whether Georgia is far away from there or not (she came there on a plane), sings These Boots Are Made for Walking. Kelly Pickler Lite. Piers likes her singing. Hasselhoff wants to see her on a sitcom. After she begs some, Piers asks her to sing some Dolly Parton, and after that, David Hasselhoff agrees to put her through as well.

11-year-old piano player Lewis Warren Jr is going to Vegas. The Shaolin Warriors of Chinatown will also go to Vegas (if none of them die first).

Texas dance group Beyond Belief Dance Company says they’re not just a dance troop… they’re also a family. The group of 22 dancers age 12-17 turns out to be pretty good. Piers hates the outfits and the makeup but likes their dancing. Sharon loves the idea of 1 guy with 21 girls, whatever that means. The audience, which is apparently half composed of this group’s family members, is in an uproar. The risk this group runs in a show like this is being a nameless faceless mass of too many people, but they could go far. (Video of Beyond Belief Dance Company’s performance)

Fran Martin’s pot-bellied pig Smithfield can paint because if dolphins can paint, pigs can paint, too (good luck getting that theory across to the scientific community). Piers buzzes right away and would prefer Smithfield as a bacon sandwich. Smithfield doesn’t get any more love from anybody else since he can’t paint anything.

Paul West and his dog Tucker hope to turn things around for the animals. They do an acrobatic canine disc routine, complete with plenty of backflips. Piers is surprised that the dog’s so well trained. They’re going to Vegas. (Video of Paul West and Tucker’s performance)

72-year-old Paul Salos believes he’s Frank Sinatra. He has been doing this act for 40 years and sings Fly Me to the Moon. Hasselhoff and Sharon Osbourne get up and dance midway through, so we know he’s going to Vegas.

From Dallas we’re now headed to Chicago again.

Brother and sister duo Junior and Emily Alabi are salsa dancers who have been dancing together for 9 years. Right when they walk out on stage, the judges know they mean business. They look great, although I’m getting dizzy from the spinning. The judges love them, and Piers thinks they’ve got a very good chance and are the best dance act they’ve seen so far. (Video of Junior and Emily’s performance)

Zane and Stephanie are a married singing duo. They’d love to do this full time because they would be able to be together all the time. Give them a few years. It’s possible they sound good individually, but the harmony’s just not there when they try singing together. Sharon lets them finish for some reason. Hasselhoff thanks them for wearing yellow and smiling a lot.

George the giant is 7’3″. He wraps a giant straw around a volunteer, pulls it through his nose and then his mouth, and drinks from it. Then he sets some firecrackers off on his chest. If only I knew what one thing had to do with the other. Despite the creepiness of this whole thing, his personality wins over Piers and Hasselhoff.

Jessica Price got started singing at church. Her father left, but he taught her how to sing. She sings I Can’t Make You Love Me while playing the guitar. Piers finds her a refreshing change from the stereotypical American young woman. Sharon hopes she’ll smile and relax next time, but everybody loves her. She just hopes her father would be proud of her. (Video of Jessica Price’s performance)

The next stop is Atlanta, home of the Hoff.

Alistair McQueen tells us he’s spent years upon years studying and rehearsing. He proceeds to do a striptease. No. Don’t let him take his shirt off. Or his pants, Sharon. Piers tells him he lacks the correct equipment. Hasselhoff has just one word for this skinny guy: eat.

Busty Heart will crush objects using her breasts. Two words for this chick: back pain.

Clogging group The Southern Belles will hopefully stop Atlanta from sucking. They make clogging surprisingly hip. Sharon thinks Mr. Riverdance better watch out.

Dan Meyer will be risking his life for our entertainment pleasure. He’s a sword swallower. Jerry Springer wants everybody to know not to try this at home. As if watching him swallow one sword isn’t creepy enough, he follows that up with three at once. Hasselhoff buzzes him while he’s swallowing his sword… good thing he didn’t kill him. Sharon, who didn’t vote someone through based on danger last week, says absolutely yes. Hoff says no because he doesn’t see how he could possibly do this act for an hour, or for that matter more than a few minutes before the audience runs away. Piers says yes. Dan tells us he almost punctured his stomach when the buzzer sounded.

9-year-old David Militello has autism and as a result was unable to speak for the first three years of his life. He’s been singing ever since then, though. He sings Ben by Michael Jackson, easily winning over the crowd. (Video of David Militello’s performance)
