Another fan commented on the show's YouTube clip of Calysta's performance with, "I hate this world we live in. I can literally point out at least 10 singers better then her on AGT. Simon is soft because the producers have made him live in this woke world that wer're all in. Look back to old school american idol he probably would have told this PERSON she was mediocre. Cant do that no more though in this butt hurt world we live in." "She can do so much more. Her voice is incredible but the song unfortunately did not show her full vocal potential, in my opinion. I will never forget her first audition though. Pure goosebumps," recounted a fan.

'America's Got Talent: All-Stars' airs every Monday at 8/7c on NBC.
