Miss Maher Makes Top 40 Appearance On AGT


My favorite act on America’s Got Talent made her 3rd appearance on the hit NBC show this past Wednesday night. Four year old Kaitlyn Maher (pictured on the right) sang the song “What A Wonderful World.” While her vocal performance was not perfect (I would have had her sing the ending differently) but her confidence and charm continued to impress. Both the audience and the judges loved her once again.
I was a little concerned when for the first time in the competition I saw the youngster just a little uncomfortable on stage. During the judges’ review of her performance she really didn’t know how to respond to their comments answering only a nervous “yes.” several times. It’s just evidence that she’s at her best on stage when she’s doing what she loves: singing.

Kaitlyn will only advance in the competition if viewers called in or voted for her online during the 2 hours after Wednesday night’s broadcast. It may be too late for you to put your support behind her for the show but you can visit her “My Space” page:

We now have to wait until next Tuesday to find out the results of America’s vote to know if our favorite four year old singer is going on to the top 20 of AGT. I’m rather certain that she’s going to advance but she's not going to win. However she may get a lot farther than anyone thinks she will. Like I wrote back in June; I’d hate to be the one to have to tell that little girl she’s come up short in the voting and that she was going home. I believe even Piers Morgan, the “mean” judge would have trouble with that one.
