On July 2, “America’s Got Talent” season 19 continued with the fifth installment of audition episodes. In this initial stage of the competition, each judge is given two “golden buzzer” decisions to make where they can send an act straight through to the live shows. At the end of “Auditions 5,” 9 year old singer Pranysqa Mishra was the kid performer in a sea of impressive kid performers that earned the biggest prize. Watch the full performance in the video above.
Ahead of her performance, Pranysqa was asked who her favorite singers are and when she named some of the biggest voices in music history like Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston and Tina Turner, the audience ooh’d and aah’d with surprise. Their surprise turned to utter shock when she opened her voice to sing “River Deep Mountain High” and it was clear that her voice was just as deep as that of her icons.
When it came to critiques, Heidi Klum told her that she “did not expect that” and because she “honestly [didn’t] want to hear what Howie, Simon or Sofia have to say,” she should go ahead and give her grandmother a call to tell her that “Heidi Klum pushed the Golden Buzzer for you.” Then, when she went on stage to give Pranysqa a hug, Heidi told her that she is “literally incredible.”
As the next golden buzzer act of the season, Pranysqa will skip the next cut and advance straight to the live shows. She joins Australian dancers Brent Street who earned Howie Mandel‘s Golden Buzzer in “Auditions 4,” Argentinian dance group Legion who received Sofia Vergara‘s Golden Buzzer in “Auditions 3,” singer Liv Warfield and drone artists Sky Elements who both received the Golden Buzzer from Simon Cowell over the course of “Auditions 2,” and comedian Learnmore Jonasi and singer Richard Goodall who were chosen for the honor by Terry Crews and Heidi, respectively, during “Auditions 1.”
