KENADI YOU CAN KEEP KENADI'S DREAM
ALIVE! XFINITY CUSTOMERS, YOU CAN VOTE
USING YOUR XFINITY FOR "AGT" ON XFINITY VOICE, VOICE REMOTE.
JUST SAY "VOTE FOR AGT" AND CAN ALL VOTE UP TO TEN TIMES FOR
EVERY ACT WITH EACH OF THE VOTING METHODS
LET'S KEEP IT GOING. THIS NEXT ACT CONSIDERS HIMSELF
LUCKY TO BE ON "AGT," BUT IS I LUCK OR SOMETHING ELSE
TO EXPLAIN, HERE'S MAX MAJOR >> MAKING IT TO THE SEMIFINALS
HAS MADE ME FEEL SO GRATEFUL, BUT ALSO VERY LUCKY.
SOME MIGHT ASK IS THERE ANYTHING A PERSON CAN DO TO MAKE
THEMSELVES LUCKY PERHAPS LUCKIER.
HERE IS A SIMPLE EXPERIMENT THAT SHOULD WORK ON MOST OF YOU
QUICK, I WANT YOU TO IMAGINE TWO SIMPLE GEOMETRIC SHAPES LIKE A
SQUARE AND A RECTANGLE BUT DON'T USE MY EXAMPLE
PICTURE ONE OF THOSE SHAPES AROUND THE OTHER
SEE THIS IN YOUR MIND. ARE YOU THINKING OF A TRIANGLE
INSIDE A CIRCLE? YOU ARE, AREN'T YOU?
PERHAPS I JUST GOT LUCKY MAYBE.
MAYBE NOT. LUCK IS A GAME
WHAT ARE THE ODDS I END UP HERE, IN THE SEMIFINALS OF "AGT"
FIVE MONTHS AGO I HAD GOTTEN BACK TO PERFORMING AFTER A
FIVE‐YEAR BATTLE WITH CHRONIC ILLNESS.
I HAD MISSED ALL THE OPPORTUNITIES TO AUDITION FOR
"AMERICA'S GOT TALENT. THEN THE PANDEMIC HIT, AN EVENT
OF A LIFETIME. "AGT" OPENS ONLINE AUDITIONS
I AUDITIONED DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY AUDITIONERS
MAKE IT THIS YEAR? 0.1%
INFLUENCE IS THE ABILITY TO INFLUENCE THOUGHTS TO CONTROL AN
OUTCOME. HOW MANY OF YOU THOUGHT OF A
TRIANGLE INSIDE A CIRCLE EARLIER?
WAS THAT A LUCKY GUESS ON MY PART
MY QUESTION TO YOU, IS ANYTHING REALLY LEFT TO CHANCE?
THANK YOU ALL FOR HAVING ME BACK
THANK YOU. YOU KNOW, BEING HERE IN THE
SEMIFINALS FEELS LIKE WINNING THE LOTTERY.
HEIDI, SINCE THIS IS MY FIRST OPPORTUNITY TO GET INSIDE YOUR
MIND, I THOUGHT WE COULD PLAY A QUICK GAME
IF YOU COULD, GRAB A POKER CHIP OFF THE TABLE.
STAND HERE AND FACE ME YOU'RE GOING TO TAKE THE CHIP
BEHIND YOUR BACK, GET IT INTO ONE OF YOUR HANDS.
WHEN YOU'RE READY, BRING YOUR HANDS OUT WITH YOUR FISTS CLOSED
AND GIVE ME YOUR BEST POKER FACE
>> Heidi: ARE YOU READY? >> I'M READY
WHAT WOULD HEIDI DO? IT'S IN YOUR LEFT HAND
HOLD IT UP IT'S JUST ONE.
[ APPLAUSE ] I COULD BE LUCKY
TAKE IT BEHIND YOUR BACK WE'LL PLAY A FINAL ROUND
MIX IT AROUND BETWEEN YOUR HANDS.
YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO GO LEFT AGAIN, THAT WOULD BE TOO
OBVIOUS, BUT IT'S UP TO YOU. AS A MATTER OF PERSONALITY I ASK
MYSELF WHETHER SHE WOULD KEEP IT IN THE SAME HAND OR SWITCH
YOU SWITCHED, RIGHT HAND HOLD IT UP
ALL RIGHT. THAT'S TWO
[ APPLAUSE ] ALL RIGHT.
I THINK I UNDERSTAND THE WAY THAT YOU THINK NOW
SO LET'S KEEP THINGS GOING WITH A SIMPLE GAME OF ROULETTE.
HEIDI, I WOULD LOVE YOU TO PLAY DEALER, IF YOU COULD STEP BEHIND
THE TABLE, TOSS THAT CHIP ON THE TABLE.
HOWIE, SOFIA, I WANT TO GET YOU IN ON THE ACTION
ON THIS TABLE ARE THE NUMBERS 1 THROUGH 36
BUT BEFORE YOU PLACE YOUR BETS, IN A MOMENT I'M GOING TO ASK YOU
TO TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS AND CHOOSE THE NUMBERS THAT FEEL
RIGHT TO YOU NOW, I'M GOING TO PLACE A BET OF
MY OWN BEFORE WE START AND TONIGHT, I'M GOING ALL IN.
HEIDI, AS THE JUDGES CALL OUT THEIR NUMBERS, IF YOU COULD PICK
THEM UP AND PLACE THEM ON THE BOARD ONE AT A TIME SO EVERYONE
AT HOME CAN FOLLOW ALONG >> Heidi: OKAY
>> HOWIE, BE SPONTANEOUS NAME A NUMBER 1 TO 26.
>> Howie: 22 >> SOFIA, NAME A NUMBER, ONE TO
36 >> Sofia: 10
>> HEIDI, I WANT YOU TO CHOOSE A NUMBER FOR YOURSELF.
BE RANDOM. >> Heidi: I PICK 4
>> TERRY, WHY DON'T WE GET YOU IN ON THE ACTION
CALL OUT A NUMBER, 1 THROUGH 36. >> Terry: 15
>> LET'S TAKE THINGS A STEP FURTHER AND GET OUR AUDIENCE
INVOLVED CAN WE BRING UP A RANDOM SECTION
OF THE AUDIENCE? HEIDI, BEHIND US HERE WE'VE GOT
SOME MEMBERS OF OUR AUDIENCE IF YOU COULD POINT TO ANYONE
THAT YOU WANT, IT'S TRULY YOUR CHOICE
>> Heidi: I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THE FAMILY ON THE LEFT IN PINK
>> THE FOUR LADIES IN ALL PINK, YES?
COULD YOU GUYS UNMUTE YOUR MICROPHONE SO WE CAN ALL HEAR
YOU. >> HI.
>> UNMUTE YOUR MICROPHONE, IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY.
MOM, CALL OUT A NUMBER FROM 1 THROUGH 36
>> 24. >> 24 FOR HER UP ON THE BOARD.
THE YOUNG LADY TO YOUR RIGHT, CALL OUT A NUMBER, ANY ONE YOU
WANT >> 14.
>> THANK YOU, GUYS GOOD LUCK.
WE NOW HAVE SIX NUMBERS CHOSEN AT RANDOM.
ALL BETS ARE IN. IT'S TIME FOR THE BIG MOMENT
FEELING LUCK QUESTION? >> Heidi: YES.
>> HERE WE GO. HEIDI, I'LL GIVE THE WHEEL A
SPIN IF YOU COULD PICK UP THE BALL, I
WANT YOU TO ROLL THE BALL AROUND THE RIM, GIVE IT A ROLL.
WHAT'S IT GOING TO BE, WHO'S GOING TO BE OUR BIG WINNER
TONIGHT? >> Heidi: WHO IS IT GOING TO BE?
>> LET'S SEE LUCKY NUMBER, WHAT DO WE GOT
>> Heidi: 13 >> WHO CHOSE 13?
>> Heidi: NOBODY >> NOBODY?
I KNEW THIS WOULD APPEN. YOU SEE, THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN
TOO EASY, BECAUSE WHILE ALL OF YOU WERE HOPING FOR 1 AND 36, I
WAS GOING FOR 1 AND A MILLION. HEIDI, STEP AROUND THE FRONT OF
THE TABLE, PICK UP MY WALLET, STAND NEXT TO THE ROULETTE WHEEL
THERE. I ALREADY SAID I WAS ALL IN.
THAT'S BECAUSE BEFORE THE SHOW I PLACED AN ACTUAL BET
I WANT YOU TO OPEN MY WALLET YOU'LL FIND A ZIPPERED POCKET.
REACH INSIDE AND FIND A SMALL SLIP OF PAPER.
THAT'S NOT JUST ANY PIECE OF PAPER.
IT'S A LOTTERY TICKET. OPEN IT UP AND HOLD IT TOWARDS
THE CAMERA AND READ THE NUMBERS, ONE DIGIT AT A TIME TO EVERYONE.
>> Heidi: WHAT DO WE HAVE? WE HAVE A 4, A 10, A 14, A 15,
AND A 22 >> AND THE POWER BALL.
>> Heidi: 24 >> YES
4, 10, 14, 15, 22, AND 24. THAT'S ALL SIX NUMBERS
[ APPLAUSE ] BUT THAT'S NOT ALL
THAT'S NOT ALL AFTER MY LAST ACT, I WROTE
MYSELF A LITTLE REMINDER, SOMETHING I DIDN'T WANT TO
FORGET SOME GOOD ADVICE I WAS GETTING
WHAT DOES IT SAY ON THE BACK OF THE TICKET
>> Heidi: IT DOES GO BIGGER. >> SOFIA TOLD ME I HAD TO GO
EVEN BIGGER. SOFIA, I TOOK YOUR ADVICE QUITE
LITERALLY. TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT I DID
EARLIER. I'M HERE TO MAKE MY BOLDEST
PREDICTION YET IN A VERY PUBLIC WAY.
I'M TAKING A BIG RISK WITH THIS. BUT I GOT A BILLBOARD WITH SOME
NUMBERS THAT I'M HOPING BY NOW WILL MEAN SOMETHING TO YOU
LOOK AT THE NUMBERS ON THE BILLBOARD.
4, 10, 14, 15, 22, 24. THAT'S ALL SIX
THERE WAS ONE MORE NUMBER THAT NOBODY CHOSE
WHAT DOES ROULETTE LAND ON >> Heidi: 13
>> 13. THIS IS A REAL BILLBOARD YOU CAN
GO AND SEE RIGHT NOW AT UNIVERSAL STUDIOS, HOLLYWOOD
SHARE YOUR PHOTOS WITH #AGT. EVEN WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT'S ALL
UP TO CHANCE, YOU CAN ALWAYS TRUST YOUR INSTINCTS
I'M MAX MAJOR. GOOD NIGHT
THANK YOU VERY MUCH. THANK YOU, HEIDI
>> Terry: MAX MAJOR, THANK YOU SO MUCH, HEIDI
SOFIA, WHAT DID YOU THINK OF THAT
>> Sofia: IT WAS I THINK A VERY RISKY TRICK BECAUSE IT WAS VERY
COMPLICATED. WE WERE CONFUSED A LITTLE BIT,
CONCENTRATING. SO I THINK YOU DID STEP IT UP A
NOTCH AND YOU MADE IT HARDER BUT A LITTLE CONFUSING
OKAY, I'M TALKING NOW, OKAY? >> Howie: I KNOW
>> Sofia: MY REAL QUESTION IS, WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE SHOES
AGAIN? >> IT'S JUST HOW I FEEL
CONNECTED TO THE WORLD >> Howie: CONFUSING.
>> Sofia: THAT'S VERY CONFUSING TO US.
>> Terry: HOWIE. >> Howie: NOW I'M TALKING.
>> Sofia: GO AHEAD >> Howie: THIS IS THE ONE
PROBLEM I SOMETIMES HAVE WITH A LOT OF MAGICIANS, A LOT OF
TALKING AND LESS MAGIC THERE WAS SO MUCH TALKING, MY
IT'S MY ADD, I WAS CONFUSED. WE WERE BOTH ASKING EACH OTHER,
WHAT DID THEY SAY, WHAT'S SUPPOSED TO BE HAPPENING
WE WERE CONFUSED I DON'T THINK IT WAS A STEP UP
BUT IT'S NOT UP TO ME, IT'S UP TO AMERICA
IF YOU DON'T AGREE, VOTE >> Terry: HEIDI, DID YOU AGREE
>> Heidi: I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU GUYS DIDN'T UNDERSTAND.
EVERYONE PICKED A NUMBER AND IT WAS SUPER RANDOM, EVEN ME
THROWING THE BALL, IT LANDED ON ALL THE NUMBERS THAT HE
PREDICTED BEFORE WHAT ARE YOU GUYS NOT GETTING?
I THINK THAT EVERY TIME YOU COME UP WITH SOMETHING NEW, I THINK
THAT YOU'RE WORTHY OF A SHOW IN LAS VEGAS.
>> THANK YOU >> Heidi: AND I THINK YOUR
ASSISTANT WAS TERRIFIC >> Howie: THE BILLBOARD IS
BIGGER >> Terry: THANK YOU SO MUCH,

ACCEPTANCE THAT I DIDN'T GET ANYWHERE ELSE.
IT BECAME THIS OUTLET TOWARDS ME BECOMING A MUSICIAN.
SUDDENLY THAT FEELING THAT I GOT ON THAT SOCCER FIELD, I GAINED
THAT SAME CONFIDENCE WHEN I SANG
SO I KNEW THAT MUSIC WAS WHAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO DO NEXT.

THE FINALS THERE'S A LOT OF SINGERS,
ESPECIALLY TONIGHT OH, THANK YOU.
I'LL BE HERE ALL WEEK. THE THING IS THAT I DON'T KNOW
THAT THAT WAS ENOUGH BUT IT'S NOT UP TO ME, IT'S UP
TO THEM. YOU CERTAINLY DESERVE TO BE IN

THERE, THAT'S THE QUESTION >> Terry: SOFIA, WHAT DID YOU
THINK? >> Sofia: SOFIA, I DO THINK IT'S
ENOUGH IT'S NOT WHAT HE SAYS, IT'S WHAT
AMERICA IS GOING TO SAY. YOU ARE ALWAYS ENOUGH.
EVERY TIME YOU SING AND PERFORM. I THOUGHT ‐‐ LIKE I WAS PAYING

EVER DONE BEFORE TONIGHT, TO MAKE THE FINALS,
HE'S TAKING IT UP A LEVEL! BRACE YOURSELVES, HERE'S
JONATHAN GOODWIN >> WHAT HAPPENED IN THE
QUARTERFINALS WASN'T IDEAL >> JONATHAN GOODWIN!
>> I NEARLY DIDN'T GET THROUGH I'VE DETERMINED I'M NOT GOING TO
BE IN THAT POSITION AGAIN. SO THIS NEXT PERFORMANCE, IT IS
BIGGER, SCARIER, AND THE STAKES ARE INFINITELY HIGHER.
I'M GOING TO BE HANGING 50 FEET IN THE AIR
WHAT I'M DOING IS NOT A TRICK. AND THE WORST INJURY I'VE EVER
SUSTAINED WAS FALLING FROM A ZIP LINE
THIS STUNT IS A REAL CHALLENGE, BECAUSE ONE OF MY GREATEST FEARS
IS HEIGHT. IT HAS A PHYSIOLOGICAL EFFECT ON
MY BODY. I GET SWEATY PALMS
I CAN FEEL MY HEART BEATING IN MY CHEST
IN FACT IT'S SOMETHING I HAVE NIGHTMARES ABOUT
FLIPPING, FALLING, REACHING, AND THERE'S NOTHING THERE TO SAVE
ME THE DANGER IS REAL
BUT I'M ONE PERFORMANCE AWAY FROM BEING IN THE FINALS OF
"AMERICA'S GOT TALENT. SO TONIGHT, I'M FACING MY FEARS.
AND IF I FALL, IT'S GAME OVER. GOOD EVENING, AMERICA.
HAPPY TUESDAY. TONIGHT IS THE SEMIFINALS OF
"AMERICA'S GOT TALENT. EVERYONE IN THIS SHOW IS
AMAZING. AND SO I KNOW I HAVE TO PUT IT
ALL ON THE LINE. AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I'M
GOING TO DO, LITERALLY RIGHT NOW I'M 60 FEET IN THE AIR
UNDERNEATH A CRANE THE ZIP LINE TERMINATES AN AT
THAT PLATFORM 80 FEET AWAY I'M GOING TO ATTEMPT THE
SCARIEST STUNT IN MY BOOK. WHAT YOU SEE TONIGHT I'VE NEVER
ATTEMPTED BEFORE, NOR HAS ANYONE ELSE
I'M GOING TO TRY TO RIDE THE ZIP LINE FROM HERE TO THERE.
BUT THERE ARE A FEW THINGS IN MY WAY.
FIRSTLY, THIS COMBINATION PADLOCK.
THE LOCK AND THE TETHER THAT IT'S ATTACHED TO, SECURED AROUND
MY WAIST, WILL STOP MY TRAVEL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ZIP LINE AND
PREVENT ME GETTING SAFELY TO THE OTHER SIDE
