Sofie on America’s Got Talent
The contortionist and hand balancer auditioned for America’s Got Talent on season 11. Just 14-years-old at the time, her tricks consisted of bending her knees over her head and balancing on one hand. She even used her free hand to take a bite out of an apple for some extra flare.
Finally, while in a handstand position, she shot a bow and arrow with her feet, hitting a target at a distance. In the voting process, all three judges gave a “yes,” sending her through to the next round.
In the Judge Cuts, Sofie hung on an elevated hoop as she shot a flaming arrow from a bow with her feet. At this stage, she performed well enough to earn the Golden Buzzer from the guest judge, sending her straight to the Quarterfinals. Ultimately, she made it to the finale where she performed a series of aerial tricks. Unfortunately, she did not receive enough votes to be included in the top five, eliminating her from the competition.
However, that was not the last we would see from Sofie on the AGT stage. The performer returned for The Champions and made it to the preliminary stage. Just a few months ago, Sofie returned once again to pay a visit to the set. She documented the experience on her YouTube channel as she had fun with the judges and Terry Crews. In a cute segment, she even challenged the host to a strength contest.
