The World's Best: From '6-Octave-Man' to 'Mini Maestro' here are the top 3 most sensational performances so far

From Kazakhstan, Philipines, India and more, here are the acts that stole The World's Best stage so far!
PUBLISHED FEB 8, 2019

This year's Super Bowl may have had the lowest viewership since 2008, but 'The World's Best,' which premiered right after the event had an audience of 22.2 million people. The highly-anticipated show, boldly proclaimed to be 'The World's Best,' did not disappoint the audience, but the star-studded judges of the show were slammed as "sensationalists" for giving extremely high points as the show kicked off, thus lowering the bar for the performers from all over the world.

Actress Drew Barrymore, drag icon RuPaul Charles and country singer Faith Hill gave perfect scores to a few of the acts, and while that was applauded by some and mocked by other viewers, the 50 judges in the backdrop pooled in their votes, counting one point per expert. The fate of the acts depended on making it to at least 75 points to advance.
