'AGT: Fantasy League' finale: Viewers not impressed nor entertained by Musa Motha's routine to Beyonce's 'Naughty Boy'

'AGT: Fantasy League' viewers call Musa Motha's finale act not winner worthy

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Musa Motha took the stage on 'America's Got Talent: Fantasy League' on February 12 to captivate the audience and the mentors with his one last act. However, viewers at home claim they didn't feel it was a winning act, as they were left bored and wanted more.

Musa is on Simon Cowell's Dream Team. He experienced some mobility constraints as a result of an injury and is now using arm-braced crutches to help him move.

"I don't want to lie, I am so nervous," he stated prior to Monday's performance. "I am here to win as a dancer, not a disabled dancer," he previously stated.

He added, "If someone sees me as a disabled dancer, then I have failed."

Motha then hit the stage in an all-yellow collared outfit, dancing to Beyoncé's 'Naughty Boy'.

"You are incredibly talented, and inspirational. You are also such a humble and sweet person," stated Simon.

"I don't know what to say. You have shown us excellence in the face of adversity," admired Howie Mandel.

"There is a beauty and a purpose to you being here," expressed Heidi Klum.

"I think you have broken down so many barriers," reminisced Mel B.

On X, viewers seemingly disagreed with the mentors, as they wrote, "Definitely gotta admire Musa (heart, drive, vision) but the actual performance(s) are not impressive, nor entertaining, nor something anyone would pay money to see (except out of sympathy)." While another user chimed in, "The only good thing about that Musa performance was the song."

On Facebook, users commented, "I don't believe this was his best performance." Another user commented, "Wasn’t a winning performance."

One fan claimed, "He danced well but wake up and smell the he coffee. He can't do anything that in LV as a performer. Too Boring !" Others agreed, "Sorry, I just don’t see it as being a good act." 

What happened to Musa Motha in 'AGT'?

Dancer Musa, one of Simon's first draft picks, made his debut on 'Britain's Got Talent' Season 16 in 2023. He aspired to be a professional football player but was afflicted with cancer at the age of ten.

The sickness resulted in the South African native losing his left leg, but that hasn't prevented him from dancing his way into the hearts of fans all around the world.

"When the music starts, and I'm on stage performing, nothing matters," he had said. In a recent episode, Musa stated, "it's just me and the music and the stage performing for people."

Following a virtual qualifying performance, Musa stunned the judges during the semifinal round, earning Simon's Golden Buzzer and advancing to the Finals.
