LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'America's Got Talent: Fantasy League' alums Chapel Hart and Drake Milligan returned to the NBC show finale stage to deliver thrilling performances. However, viewers were left furious over the collaboration, noting that Chapel 'ruined' Drake's performance.
During the episode, Drake mesmerized fans with 'What I Couldn't Forget' before inviting Chapel on stage. The duo then teamed up to perform Chapel's original audition song, 'You Can Have Him Jolene.' Although the duo shared the finale stage, they performed separate songs.
However, viewers took to the comment section of Chapel and Drake's performance video and slammed the former over their performance. A social media user commented, "Drake was great! Chapel Hart, bored with you always singing the same song."
Another person added, "Like him but can't stand chapel heart they just ruined the whole thing." Another critic noted, "Chapel Heart is my least favorite of all time. NOTHING country about them. Drake on the other hand is FANTASTIC." Another critic penned, "Chapels are worse." Another viewer said, "Chapel's performances are really boring."
Simon Cowell wants Chapel Hart and Dolly Parton's collab
'AGT: Fantasy League' judge Simon Cowell shared his hopes for Chapel Hart and Dolly Parton's collaboration. In the finale, Chapel Hart performed ''You Can Have Him Jolene', responding to Dolly Parton's 1970s classic, 'Jolene.'
During an episode of 'AGT' Season 17, Danica Hart explained, "We’ve always been country music fans, and Dolly is by far our favorite." She further added, "We were so inspired by the song ‘Jolene' we just love the storyline." Danica elaborated, "And we figured, though, from 1973 to 2022, we could not still be fighting over the same man, so we decided to tell her, 'You can just have him, Jolene.'"
However, after the group's latest performance, Simon said, "That was just brilliant, honestly." He added, "By the way, that Dolly Parton duet has just GOT to happen." Chapel Hart wholeheartedly agreed with Simon.
How far does Drake Milligan go in 'AGT: Fantasy League'?
'AGT: Fantasy League' alum Drake Milligan was drafted by Howie Mandel and the judge invited the singer to his dream team after describing him as "the new Elvis of country" during his Season 17 AGT audition with his original song, 'Sounds Like Something I’d Do.'
Drake performed a song he hadn’t written himself for the first time, which proved to be a disaster. Simon was critical of Howie's decision and claimed, "This is bad mentoring." He added, "You [Drake] are a great writer, and I didn’t feel there was a connection with you and that song." Drake ended up eliminated in Episode 2 of 'AGT: Fantasy League'.
