America's Got Talent: 10-year-old opera prodigy Emanne Beasha totally deserved the Golden Buzzer from Jay Leno

Jay Leno did justice to all our expectations and slammed his Golden Buzzer for one extremely deserving contestant who left everyone in the audience with goosebumps during her performance.
UPDATED AUG 7, 2019

'America's Got Talent' season 14 aired with its last round of Judge Cuts on Tuesday night, and we saw guest judge Jay Leno slam his Golden Buzzer for one deserving contestant sending them directly to the live shows. 

The famed series has us behaving like couch potatoes every Tuesday night but we are not complaining in the least. Over the past few weeks of Judge Cuts, we have seen famed stars that include Dwayne Wade, Brad Paisley, and Ellie Kemper join the judging panel as guest judges and slam their Golden Buzzer for the deserving act they think should go directly to the live shows.  This week, for the final round of Judge Cuts, we saw comedian, and TV host Jay Leno or as Terry Crews calls him 'Gangster Jay' take a seat as the guest judge. There were 18 acts that performed for a chance to move to the live shows, but only seven could make it through.  



 

From the day we got to know Leno will be a guest judge on the show, there was one thing on our minds. Who will Leno slam his Golden Buzzer for? Being in the industry for over 40 years, Leno has no doubt seen a surplus amount of talent.  But, Leno did justice to all our expectations and slammed his Golden Buzzer for one deserving contestant who left everyone with goosebumps during her performance. And that is none other than 10-year-old opera prodigy Emanne Beasha. 

Beasha stunned everyone with her auditions. Her performance went viral and fans were upset that she didn't receive a Golden Buzzer from the judges. Hailing from North Port, Florida, Beasha impressed everyone with her performance on Tuesday night. Her voice is so spectacular that if you were just hearing her sing, you'd mistake her for an older person. Her performance of "Caruso" caused goosebumps on everyone who witnessed it, even the viewers back home. Her pitch was unfaltering and after her opera performance, she received a standing ovation from all five judges who watched her spellbound.

An extremely impressed Howie Mandel was seen commenting, "You’re only 10 years old and we are seeing acts come out here and they’re sweating and they’re not performing to par, they’re not stepping it up. They’re double your age. And then you come out here and you show them how it’s done.” 

Chiming in, Simon Cowell added, "You are just like such a normal person. And to have a voice like this, it’s not something you can train to get, it genuinely is a gift.”

Giving his comments on Beasha's singing, Leno said, “Just the fact that from a child comes honesty and truth. I feel like I’m a witness to something extremely special. At some point in my career people will say, what do you remember most? I remember hitting the Golden Buzzer," as he slammed the Golden Buzzer for the opera prodigy. 

Moving on to the live shows, we can't wait to see what Beasha brings to the stage. And now that she already has a big fan base, she is definitely in the competition for the long run. Singing an opera song is quite a huge difficulty and for someone as young as 10 to sing in such an incredible pitch, Beasha sure has a bright future ahead of her.
