I don't know if any of you watch America's Got Talent, guilty pleasure of mine to watch. Tho, seeing this guy on stage perform..I have to say as an actor and as a lover of the arts, I really admire him! He's awesome
Some vids of him.

For those who live in the states, you all should vote for him the next time he's on. Such talent like this needs to be recognized!
It's like watching Ivankov's son.
Hilariously awesome. 
Ya… yer making a thread about just the one guy?
You could've easily just make an "America's got Talent" thread.
He's good, certainly, but not mainstream enough to win.

But then it wouldn't have been about him!
Oh I absolutely love him! He has a fantastic voice and I hope he wins first place =w=
Metal Worker By Day Prince By Night Yeah this guys has some crazy talent.
Me and the Wifey watch AGT all the time. We are fans of the Prince although I am not sure he is going to win.
The opera singers do get quite far in AGT though.
I liked Connie myself.

I like watching all of the crap ones and laughing at them.
The good ones ruin the show.
Simon is apparently going to make a "World's Got Talent" in the far future.
I can't lie, I did used to watch Britain's Got Talent. But I don't like it that much, anymore.
I much more like X Factor. It's far better, imho - It's coming to the US soon too :)
That guy is just amazing. Why? I can't describe it yet. :ninja:

Me too. I liked too Diversity.
I guess I can post the Brazilian one here too aswell.

(her perfomance begins at 0:50)
And believe or not she got on semi-final/final. And last year where some amazing people did amazing perfomances, the judges didn't let them even pass through the first phase. That's why I don't watch the Brazilian version anymore.
Why is that, I wonder? Most people don't give a flip about opera usually, so why do they go gaga for them on the tv shows?
I think it's when you see some useless looking idiot come on stage, and then he turns round and belts out some glorious operatic composition. Bit like Susan Boyle. Infact on Britain's got Talent, the very same thing happened.
Paul Potts - who worked int he Carphone Warehouse, by day, came on and was a really skilled opera singer.
However, your point is damn right, because it's just been anounced the other day that he's been dropped from his label.
Honestly the Paul Potts variety of opera sounds kinda diffrent from the Pavarotti stuff.
Maybe it's cause it's the diet version, and is a lot easier to swallow for the untrained ears of the audience.
Thought that's just a guess, all i know is that i love Paul Potts.
i wish i didn't work when this was on. :\

BECAUSE no one gives a flip about Opera, its extra exciting or interesting to suddenly get a 2 minute taste of it out of nowhere. Plus it makes the performer instantly seem classy and educated since they can sing in a foreign language.
Plus, if they are any good, they tend to be really good to be able to do it at all.
It's time for POPPYCOCK! 8D

Well, if you wanted to get America's attention, what better way than to use Bohemian Rhapsody?
somebody who likes harmonica pierre?cause he is awesome!
I tend to catch the show sporadically, but I really do enjoy it. My first introduction to the show was in 2008, when I fell in love with piano man Eli Mattson.

As for this year's crew, I love me some Poppycock, no doubt about that; I remember seeing his audition waaay back, and just getting this huge smile on my face as he performed. I'm also a fan of Micheal Grasso.
But my pick for this year's winner?
Fighting Gravity. This shit BELONGS in Vegas.

I was shocked(no pun intended) to see Arc Attack to get sent home tonight. But the important thing is our Prince Poppcock get to go to the finals! Wooo!
Champagne and Cocktails for everyone!
Prince Poppycock is all kinds of awesome. I love his radical personality shift. That man is a superhero.
Prince Poppycock, oh God yes. I've loved him since the moment he walked on stage during auditions. His voice is fabulous and strong, he has a great personality and I want him to win! I'll be so sad if he ends up losing to the youtube opera girl =/
I really hope she gets kicked out. Yeah she can sing awesome good for her age but this is about an act going to VEGAS!
Nobody is gonna go there to watch a kid who stepped off a elementary school musical. Don't get me wrong. She is a very talented singer and everything. But her act should be on a different stage than a Vegas one.
Poppycock has worked really hard to come this far. It shouldn't be fair that this little girl gets shoehorned in at his league.
Heeeeeres his next show! :D
Damn, this guy is just too good. They better make him win the show.

Well, its the final show for Poppycock. I've sent him all my votes so I hope he wins..

for the record,I want to kill Piers.
I wanna kill Piers too =/ It was a total jerk move and he was disrespectful to everyone except Jackie because he wants her to win.
Heh, Poppycock not funny so it's the reason for that. It was simple awesome.
Let's all go and do a little "visit" to Piers, I drive. :ninja:
Who spat in Piers' tea that morning?
Seriously though, it's like asking a Pop singer, "What happened to the dance tunes? You were so good at dance tunes!" What, a singer can't do a slow song once in a while?
Not everything can be a freaking carnival. Let Poppycock do something subdued (for him) now and then. Eeesh.
It felt like Poppy's show was cut short due to the buzzer. Felt incomplete.
What a jerk though.
To be fair I wish he'd chosen something other than Nessun Dorma. I'm getting sick of that song.
Still, if he can do freaking PAGLIACCI in one of his earlier numbers, he can do freaking Nessun Dorma if he wants.
The Prince came in FOURTH? Wow, I wasn't expecting that.
God, please let Fighting Gravity win.
EDIT: WHAT. WHAT?!?!
I am NOT impressed.
Fuck this show. And fuck Piers too.
Oyyyyy. What happened to VEGAS shows!?
I liked him very much! His voice is so sexy!
I made a tribute video to honor his royal nonsense for his time on the show. I am glad he will go on tour around the country to perform and he has become a well earned celebrity.

Really of all the top 4 Michal Grimm was far the worst and it surprised me when he even made the finals. Dunno how the hell he won. That seems to happen with finales though, people sometimes choose the most watered-down unoriginal thing for some reason…
Anyhow, the other 3 acts will all definitely have careers.
Well Piers is leaving to do Larry King's show so he's leaving the UK show.
