Starting Over Talk - Peer Coaching Support Site

I loved most of the acts tonite...........and because they're so diverse, it will be difficult and pretty much random to pick a winner!! They all will go places in their respective genres!!!! My absolute top 2 are:

Bianca

and

All That


But I really liked most of them!!! I loved the quick change act (cute with Brandy in the act too!)....and really, each act can only change and/or add so much. After all, Rapping Granny is just that...........a rapper. I REALLY liked the way the harmonica playing kiddo responded to the Piers issue.......a GREAT attitude that leaves him looking mature and respectful, but still confident. The Celtic Spring kiddos were really more disrespectful....and even though *I* think adults can and should put him in his place and/or read him a riot act, I do not like it from kids. It comes off making them look mouthy and it really doesn't teach them that ****especially**** in this business of show biz.......how to handle criticism with grace.

That being said.........I have to add that I really do love the jugglers too!!! Ooooh, it's hard to pick a winner!!

Well I think the Celtic Spring thing... was just one kid who might very well have spoken out of frustration. I think his dad cut him off and thought he tried to salvage the situation by saying Piers was still one of his 3 favorite judges. I'm having bad ear problems of late..so I do miss some of the dialogue.. I'm not sure exactly what the kid had said to Piers.. But more than likely some of the acts back stage had already heard some of the stuff coming out of his mouth in the earlier acts. Not trying to excuse his behavior.. but Piers (I think is his name) was really rather insulting to people tonight. He got booed left and right..Or the equivalent of booing..

Grizz.. I had also thought about the fact that for some of these people to be successful, they do need to have some variety in their act.. Rapping Granny is more of a novelty act ...I like her, I think she is a hoot... and I think she has a charming personality! I think the couple who did the physical acrobatics type act... is similar.. How much variety or long of a show could they do...

I thought the Celtic spring dancers were amazing.. Could have done without the first part... but I guess they had to lead into their dance somehow... I just thought they synchronized extremely well...and it was some amazing footwork.

I think all of them surely could get jobs doing gigs... and make a living at their craft.

I plan to watch tomorrow!

Anyone think Piers is just doing the Simon thing! Afterall this show is the brainchild and produced by Simon Cowell!

hehehehe sorry about that KPW.

I thought Piers is just trying to raise a little controversey. I don't think they want three judges to sit there and say pretty much the same thing. Also, I think the show believes that rudeness will cause people to pick up the phones and vote.

I tried to vote, not because of Piers, but I never got through. I tried about 25 times. I started calling right after Bianca performed and continued until about 30 minutes after the show went off. Busy, Busy, Busy.

I like the Celtic dancers too, I really enjoyed their performance. I actually liked the Amazing Grace on the violin. I must have missed something. What did that have to do with 9-11 that Piers was complaining about. Grizz, I didn't hear that boy say anything really bad to Piers. Maybe, I missesd it.

I think there is difference in true talent and an act. I think most people can learn to do magic tricks. What impresses me is a shocking expertise at something such as singing or playing an instrument. I did like the harmonica playing boy but not a million dollars worth. I think that Bianca is the only person who demonstrates a talent ot such magnitude to be awarded a million dollars. If she doesn't win, I will be soooo shocked, but you never know. If they set it up that voters calls can't get through, then what can you do?

Bianca Ryan Won!

I am so glad Bianca won it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
