Why Are All These Tween Girls Winning America's Got Talent?
Billboard

On the night of Wednesday, September 20th, over 15 million people in the United States tuned into their local TV stations to watch the America's Got Talent Season 12 finale of a lifetime. I was one of those people watching that night with my friends and my family to see who would win the one million dollars and the Las Vegas show. We were waiting to see the winner out of the ten finalists that performed the night before. They all had outstanding points about their performances and they all deserved to be on that stage!

All ten acts that performed the night before and who were competing for the one million dollar prize and the headline show in Las Vegas were Angelica Hale, Preacher Lawson, Diavolo, Light Balance, Kechi Okwuchi, Evie Clair, Chase Goehring, Darci Lynne Farmer, Sara and Hero, and Mandy Harvey. They are all different acts from singing to dancing to comedy to ventriloquism and they all had something special to add to the night.

Meanwhile in the finale, all of the acts performed with famous people such as Kelly Clarkson, Shania Twain, James Arthur, and Terry Fator, the ventriloquist who won Season Two of America's Got Talent. That was a beautiful time with the acts getting to perform with people who would get them more out there than they already are just being on the show.

Well, if you didn't know yet, the top five for the show in order from fifth to first were Sara and Hero in fifth place, Mandy Harvey in fourth place, Light Balance in third place, Angelica Hale in second place, and the winner of the million dollars and the Vegas Show Headline was Darci Lynne Farmer.

Darci, I thought, deserved the first place spot. I know just by looking at social media that I and so many other people were all very happy or satisfied with the results of the show. Her ventriloquism is just so amazing after only two years of practice and performing and that just deserves some form of recognition alone. Darci took everything a step up with singing with her closed mouth and in her final performance, her idea of using two puppets was genius!

But I had one question after Darci won America's Got Talent this year, why are tween girls so talented?

Just think about it for a second. Darci Lynne is twelve currently and she won Season 12 this year. In Season 11 last year, Grace VanderWaal won. Grace was twelve when she auditioned and she just had turned thirteen when she won America's Got Talent. The past two seasons have both been won by little girls in their tween years.

Both of them have their own original ideas with Darci using her puppets and Grace with her singing and songwriting. They both have very unique things about them! I guess honestly tween girls are the ones that have all of the ideas because they have been using their ideas with their talents to amaze and make America fall in love with them.

Basically, I wouldn't be surprised if we get another tween girl next year who ends up getting to the top 5 and most likely win again. I wouldn't mind that either. It will just prove my fact more that tween girls are just extremely talented and they will continue to step out into the spotlight and use their talents to wow the people of the world again and again!

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Bucket List To Live In The Now

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
