TikTok Singer Auditions for Canada’s Got Talent
Singh found singer Sai Juttukonda through her TikTok account, where she posts singing videos. She invited Sai to audition for the show. As Sai explained, she got the call that morning and hurried to get ready for the performance.
“I have quite a lot of stage fright,” Sai admitted. “And that has held me back for a lot of years. So when you called, I was like, there’s no way that on this stage with this show, with you calling me, that I could let any of that get in the way.”
Sai proceeded to perform “Jealous” by Labrinth, showing off an incredible voice that had the judges and audience on their feet. Singh predicted, “Your life is legit about to change. And I am so happy to be a part of it.”
All four judges voted yes to sending Sai through to the next round. She wasn’t the only singer to make an impression on Tuesday night. Sam Benty divided the judges with his song about farts, while Noah Kosta surprised them with his cover of “Cry Me a River.” Meanwhile, Eve Parker Finley made them laugh with the song “Screw You Steve.”

Rhythmic Gymnastics Team Surprises the Judges
During Tuesday’s show, rhythmic gymnast Carmel Kallemaa took the stage to audition. She shared that she’s preparing to compete on Team Canada in the Olympics. Carmel started her performance solo, before surprising the judges.
As she was performing, Singh commented to Howie Mandel, “It’s a choice to come alone, I will say. I feel like it’s a big stage.” Just as she said that, Carmel’s teammates ran out to join her in the performance, which was set to the song “Venus.”
“These are my teammates, and they are my best friends,” Carmel told the judges after the performance. The group received four yes votes from the panel to move on in the competition.
