From back in 2014 comes this America’s Got Talent clip that introduced the country to our favorite street hustlin’ Marine turned magician, Smoothini the Ghetto Houdini. Since his Fuse TV show has been confirmed (it premieres in July), we thought we’d dig out this oldie but goodie. The official AGT posting has over 36 million views and there are dozens of mirror posts all over the Internet!
You know we love the ventriloquists at iTricks. You might remember Megan Piphus from her America’s Got Talent run a couple of years ago… she recently released this video featuring a modern Christmas classic.
Season two winner Terry Fator joined Darci Lynne Farmer on last night’s America’s Got Talent finale shortly before Ms. Farmer was crowned this season’s winner… the third ventriloquist to win the show in its 12 seasons. There were many talented performers on this season but we were pulling for this young lady around iTricks Tower Midwest as our #1 non-magic pick. What is kind of frightening is that Darci has only been doing vent work for about two years!
Congratulations, Darci Lynne.
Last night saw the live finals for the 2017 season of America’s Got Talent. There aren’t any magic acts in the top ten this year, but 12 year old ventriloquist Darci Lynne is still a top contender for this year’s crown. And as we have always supported vent acts here at iTricks, she is who we are officially pulling for… even if some folks around iTricks Tower Midwest are pulling for comic Preacher Lawson!
We will find out who wins tonight on NBC (check your local listings).
Eric Jones’ run on America’s Got Talent is unfortunately over but it seems that the experience was a good one for the Philadelphia magician. This week his goodbye was posted on the official America’s Got Talent YouTube page.
. Colin Cloud is one of three acts on the bubble on America’s Got Talent. Vote now at NBC.com/dunkinsave to keep magic in this season of AGT! You have until about 9:45 Eastern time today (September 12, 2017)!
It has been a bit of an off year for magic this year’s America’s Got Talent competition, but the producers have been treating us to many of the magical acts from past seasons. This week’s results show saw Thommie Ten and Amelie van Tass take the stage to turn Mel B and Howie into their proteges.
