Trae Patton/ NBC Reading Time: 3 minutes
All eyes will be on 10-year-old singer Peter Rosalita tonight as his Season 16 America’s Got Talent audition finally airs on television. In a sneak peek, Peter radiates confidence as he takes on Celine Dion’s “All By Myself.” This performance will leave viewers at home speechless.
Peter Rosalita is Ready to Blow the Judges Away on ‘America’s Got Talent’
Peter grew up in Abu Dhabi and has been performing since he was six years old. He traveled all the way to Los Angeles for his big audition in front of the America’s Got Talent judges. The Filipino singer showed some love to all of his supporters on Instagram ahead of tonight’s episode.
“I would like to share this special journey of mine to my Kababayan all over the world and to UAE, my second home,” he wrote.
Peter’s voice is seriously so incredible, he has the power to fill an entire room with his unique tone. For his America’s Got Talent audition, Peter will be singing his heart out. In the sneak peek of this performance, his vocals literally have Simon Cowell gobsmacked. Cowell has obviously seen a ton of singers in his day but Peter rivals some of his most successful prodigies. Cowell’s eyes look like they are about to pop out of his head once Peter hits a note even better than Dion herself.
Sofia Vergara throws her arms up in the air in the sneak peek as Peter shows why the younger contestants are always the ones to beat. Age and experience levels don’t really matter on a show like this. Peter is a clear example of someone that sounds like he is already a professional.
He Recently Won a Huge Competition in Abu Dhabi
In 2020, Peter won the kid’s category during the fourth edition of Talentology at Mushrif Mall in Abu Dhabi. The competition was decided by online votes after viewers got to watch the performances virtually. He thanked his supporters for helping him begin to launch his career with this big win.
Only 12 finalists are selected for this competition out of over 10,000 applicants. Two winners were named, one from each age category. Peter won AED 5,000 worth of mall vouchers which is around $1,400.
From a very young age, Peter has been a star up on stage in every competition he has entered. He even sang one of Cowell’s favorite songs “Never Enough” from The Greatest Showman at a 2019 performance. We’ve heard this song dozens of times on talent competition shows but Peter holds his own with the super high notes.
Fans Think Peter’s Act is Golden Buzzer Worthy
In 2020, Peter performed a tribute to all of the frontline workers that have been working tirelessly throughout the Covid-19 pandemic. He sang “Heal Our Land” and showcased his strong vocals while giving people all around the world hope.
Northwell Health Choir, a group of nurses that have been working on the frontlines, will also be auditioning for America’s Got Talent tonight. While we thought the choir was a shoo-in for the Golden Buzzer, Peter’s fans are hoping the judges will make gold confetti fall for him.
“Good luck! I hope you get the golden buzzer,” one person wrote on Peter’s Instagram account.
The choir and Peter may be going head to head for the Golden Buzzer tonight. Given the history of the show, kid singers do particularly well and are known to receive the judges Golden Buzzers. Some of them have even gone on to find a ton of success after the show like Grace VanderWaal. Golden Buzzers are super effective in launching contestants’ careers whether they win or lose.
