American Idol, which is widely considered to be one of the most popular talent shows in the world, recently featured a performer who is well-known to fans of Eurovision. In 2019, Gabriella Laberge, a French-Canadian singer and violinist who participated in France’s Destination Eurovision competition, gave a breathtaking audition that captivated both the audience and the judges.
Before Gabriella took the stage on America’s Got Talent, she made a pre-performance video in which she discussed her aspirations. “This is the opportunity of my life,” she said, “to pursue my greatest dream, which is to go on performing music for the rest of my life.”
It was then that the musician, who was born in Quebec, made her appearance with her violin, and she began her audition with a delicate solo performance.
A number of the judges, including Howie Mandel, Sofia Vergara, and Heidi Klum, were clearly captivated by her performance; however, Simon Cowell appeared to be less interested. The fact that his hand was hovering over the red buzzer indicated that he was poised and ready to interrupt her performance. Gabriella, on the other hand, had a surprise up her lane.
In the midst of her transition from playing to singing, Gabriella burst into a heartfelt performance of “Goodbye My Lover” by James Blunt. The angelic quality of her voice quickly drew Cowell’s attention, which resulted in him removing his hand from the buzzer.
She received a standing ovation from both the judges and the audience for her performance, and even Simon Cowell showed his support by joining in on the applause. She was selected to advance to the next round of the competition by the panel, which reached a unanimous decision.
Gabriella’s journey through America’s Got Talent is not yet complete. Episode eight, which was the final round of auditions for the season, was the one in which her audition was shown.
It is possible for only 36 performers to go to the live concerts, despite the fact that over 150 talents have garnered “yes” votes throughout the season. Fans will need to wait for the series to return after a three-week break to learn whether Gabriella will be among the finals.
Gabriella’s television performances began in 2019 when she competed in the second season of France’s Destination Eurovision. The song “On cherche encore (Never Get Enough)” that she performed was a popular among viewers.
At the same time, she was ousted during the semi-finals, despite the fact that she was very popular. Bilal Hassani’s rendition of the song “Roi” was ultimately successful enough to win the competition.
A new chapter in Gabriella Laberge’s career has begun with her audition for America’s Got skill. She will be able to showcase her skill to an audience from all over the world, and her Eurovision fans will be rekindled with enthusiasm.
However, regardless of whether or not she is selected to participate in the live events, her sincere performance has already made an indelible impression on both the audience and the judges.
