Who is Marcus Veltri? 'AGT' Season 18's mysterious masked pianist might not move past auditions
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'America's Got Talent' brings a bunch of talented artists on the stage. But, not everyone gets the chance to move ahead in the show, as everything depends on the judges' final word. If three judges agree to say yes despite the fourth one's disapproval, then the contestant will move ahead in the show.
But if two judges say no, it closes the door definitively. NBC has released the photos of all the contestants who are appearing in 'AGT' Season 18 Episode 5. There are a total of 12 new faces coming up to showcase their talent. Among them is the mysterious group of two people whose name starts with the letter M. Nothing other than the initial was revealed by NBC. Let us take a look at who this mysterious contestant is.
Who is Marcus Veltri?
Marcus Veltri is the upcoming mysterious contestant of 'AGT' Season 18. He will be seen wearing a black bodysuit and a white mask to cover his face. Marcus is a pianist. He introduces himself saying, "Hi, I play piano for strangers on Omegle." Though his identity was not confirmed by NBC, it's pretty clear that it's Marcus because the artist is seen wearing the same masked outfit in many of his Omegle videos. Marcus is pretty famous on social media for his talent and has 5.5M subscribers on YouTube. He is seen making a bunch of videos where Marcus, along with either of his band members, is seen surprising Omegle girls.
He recently released his new album 'Killer Covers'. Marcus is not only famous on YouTube but also on Instagram, with 238K followers. As of now, he is doing a show in Los Angeles. In mid-June, he announced, "So excited to announce that I am doing my first ever live show with @rob_landes !! We will be playing at The Roxy Theatre in LA on August 13th." Besides working on his music skill, Marcus also recently did his first Olympic triathlon. He loves adventure and his social media shows him often visiting waterfalls and climbing mountains.

Marcus Veltri in 'AGT' Season 18
Some contestants who are ruled out from the show are sometimes not even introduced. They keep their identity mysterious in the audition round. It seems that Marcus will be opting for the same in 'AGT' Season 18. He might maintain his masked personality in the show. We have come up with this theory because whenever a contestant introduces himself in the show, NBC reveals their name in the released photos, which did not happen in the case of Marcus. Moreover, he did not post anything about appearing on 'AGT'. Indeed, it hints that Marcus might not move ahead in the show. Only the release of the episode can tell us what's about to happen.
'AGT' Season 18 releases new episodes every Tuesday at 8 pm ET on NBC.
