Singing ventriloquist Darci Lynne, 12, wows America’s Got Talent fans and gets Mel B’s golden buzzer
Tiny talent stuns judges and ends up sobbing with joy after her singing rabbit act is put through to the semi-finals by Scary Spice
AMERICA'S Got Talent viewers were stunned by the latest performance by a 12-year-old ventriloquist — who not only spoke for her puppet, but sang.
Darci Lynne bagged a golden buzzer pass from Mel B thanks to her astonishing skills, with the former Spice Girl telling her: "You made my heart melt."
For her audition, Darci and her rabbit pal Petunia sang jazz classic Summertime, and received a standing ovation from everyone in the venue, including Simon Cowell.
When the golden buzzer confetti began to fall she clasped her hand to her mouth, screamed and jumped up and down for joy.
Before performing, the Okhlahoma City nativa said: “I want to keep ventriloquism alive because it’s not common, you know?”
