Season 4 of “America’s Got Talent” finally wrapped up tonight, September 19th th. After endless weeks of auditions and voting, the one and only FINAL WINNER has been announced. Before revealing the winner, let’s take a quick look at the other challengers:
Barbara Padilla
Barbara Padilla is a former opera singer who suffered the near-devastation of cancer. Now in remission, she returned to audition and became a second-time “America’s Got Talent” winner. Did he have it in him to become the next Neal Boyd?
Drew Stevens
Drew is a singer and songwriter who tried to win our hearts with just the guitar by his side. He sang with grace, but was his talent enough to overcome the tremendous passion and vibrancy of superstar Kevin Skinner?
Fab Five
The Fab 5 is a beautiful group of five sisters who combine sound with hiphop music and beat the pulse of prayer, grace, and swagger in their routine. Did their modern sound choreography earn them a trophy?
Grandma Lee
Grandma Lee is a 75-year-old stand-up comedian who has always dreamed of making it big. Offensive, indecent, and taboo jokes blew us away. Was his stillbirth funny enough to warrant a spot in American history?
Hairo Torres
Hairo Torres is a wild and funny dancer known for his sensuality, although sometimes amazing performances. He dances, jumps, breaks, even splits. Was it enough to take the victory?
Kevin Skinner
He is a fellow farmer with a modest attitude and a country personality. He lacks a singing voice, but is far outweighed by the tremendous emotion. But was love in itself worthy enough of American fame and fortune?
Lawrence Beaman
Lawrence “Barry White” is certified with a baritone voice, a muscular body and an overwhelming smile. He’s like Neal Boyd, but with more emotion, a bigger life than stage presence, and a connection to soulful music. Did the song make him a winner?
The Texas Tenors
The Texas Tenors are a country band with incredible sounding vocals and harmonies. This trio of Texas singers tugs at our heartstrings with their renditions of classic songs. Was it enough to pave the way to victory?
Voices of Glory
The voices of Glory are two Brothers and a sister who once felt their sick mother near death. They then hit the road and head to the “America’s Got Talent” stage, where they showered us with heartbreak. Is talent, youth, and story enough for the winners?
LAST WINNER/LAST WINNER/LAST WINNER
And here it is folks. The winner of America’s Got Talent 2009 was Kevin Skinner!
