The 12-year-old taking over the world with her unique voice. Grace Vanderwaal was probably a name you haven't heard much. She was on America's Got Talent auditioning in front of Howie Mandel, Mel B, Heidi Klum and Simon Cowell. Performing an original song "I Don't Know My Name" impressing the judges Mandel pushed his golden buzzer, sending her to the live shows.

Simon called her the "next Taylor Swift".

Round after round wowing America. The songs she wrote on America's Got Talent are not only catchy but unique and emotional. During the quarterfinals, she preformed her original song "Beautiful Thing". Making it onto the semifinals singing her song "Light the Sky". Then for the win singing her song "Clay."


She is the second female winner and second child act to win in the shows running history. Right after season one winner Bianca Ryan, at age 11.


After America's Got Talent the "I Don't Know My Name" singer has been busy. Jump-starting her singing career, landing at Sony Music's Columbia Records, the same company that manages artists such as Adele, Barbra Streisand, Beyonce, One Direction, and much more. During Thanksgiving Grace got the chance to preform during the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, riding on the GoldieBlox float singing her song "I Don't Know My Name." Being a guest on Ellen and the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. Also had 4 sold out shows in Las Vegas.

I am 20 years old and I am in love with the voice this one girl has. I can listen to her music all day. You can feel the emotion she puts into each of her songs. This girl is just getting started already have thousands it not millions of fans. She is going to be as big as Taylor Swift some day. I can't wait to see where she goes from here.

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
