9 year-old Filipina leaves ‘America’s Got Talent’ judge in tears

This young Filipina with a golden voice proves once again why Filipinos are one of the best singers in the world.

Angelica Hale, a nine-year old Filipina, brought everyone in the audience, including the judges to their feet as she delivered a heart-touching performance on the America’s Got Talent (AGT) stage on Tuesday, August 16.

Hale impressed the judges with her rendition of Zedd’s “Clarity” and brought tears in the eyes of judge, English singer-songwriter Mel B.

“What an amazing song you’ve chosen. This song is so dear to my heart and you’ve literally did everything to it. You did it so much justice,” Mel B said.

The song’s original artist, Zedd, took to Twitter to praise the young singer’s interpretation of the song, “This girl is crazy talented! 9 years old!”.

Hale previously impressed the judges when she performed a powerful rendition of Andra Day’s “Rise Up” as well as Alicia Key’s “Girl on Fire”, earning her the golden buzzer which propelled her straight to the competition’s live rounds.
