America’s Got Talent July 8, 2008 Recap
Once again on a Tuesday night in the summer, we sit down and turn on our local NBC affiliate network to tune into America’s Got Talent. We see Judges Sharon Osbourne, Piers Morgan and David Hasselhoff critic and banter with the contestants.
This week on America’s Got Talent is the 4th episode of the season in which we attempt to answer that simple question. Does American Got Talent? Sometimes YES and most often times NO!
The show starts off as the America’s Got Talent Crew is filming from back Atlanta, Georgia. First to be introduced the Billy Dodson a 29-year-old health inspector. Billy Dodson’s performing talent is singing opera in which his High Pitched VOICE results in 3 X’s and boo’s from the audience. The Got Talent judges suggested Billy Dodson sing like a man.
Alexandra Pauls is 10-years-old and has a dad with crazy facial hair named Dean. They do a fast paced fight routine with Alex screaming and round housing her dad in the face and doing back flips everywhere. It’s like an ‘80s action movie starring a preteen. Piers doesn’t think her talent would make a good act, but Sharon and Hasselhoff say yes.
19-year-old waitress Sarah Lenore has been singing since she was four-years-old. She plays guitar while singing Carrie Underwood’s “Before He Cheats” and is absolutely fantastic. The Atlanta audience cheers and she is on her way to Vegas.
Also on to Vegas is Flambeaux, who lights the stage aflame before breathing and eating and even wearing fire. Joining him on the trip is pole-dancing Nichole and a group of dancers doing an African routine.
SQ Entertainment is a group of like a dozen or more cousins who do a high energy, hip-hop dancing and tumbling routine. The whole family is on to the next round.
At this point we are shown auditions from New York. The James Gang are a quartet of guys dressed in newsies outfits, and they come out to perform first. They do an entertaining and creative hip-hop routine that’s reminiscent a little of Outkast with the way it combines an old fashioned style of song and dance with a modern sensibility. They are on their way to Vegas.
11-year-old Victoria Jacoby tells us that she was adopted from China, and her very proud mother tells us that her talent absolutely astounds the rest of her family. Her talent is contortion and the audience and judges are impressed by her amazing flexibility. She even drinks from a glass held by her feet while bending over backward. The judges deem her fantastic and send her on to Vegas.
Delivery driver Matt Bonowitz and his wife Elaine claim to be the number one polka dancers in the world. They call their act Polka Today and proceed to do a poor routine that gets them three buzzes from the judges within seconds. After the judges ridicule them, Polka Today are sent on their way.
Other bad acts include a nerdy looking older gentleman who sings and bounces around, a ventriloquist who doesn’t close his mouth, a bad opera singer dressed like Velma Kelly from Chicago, and a girl who jumps on glass while rapping. One woman sings “Dancing in the Street” even after being completely buzzed off, until Hasselhoff goes on stage and dances her off.
Harlem’s own, Kyle Rifkin, a 36-year-old R&B singer who lets us know that music saved his life. He sings “Ain’t Too Proud to Beg” by the Temptations which brings the audience to its feet, clapping and singing along. Kyle Rifkin is on his way to Las Vegas.

Sherry Krueger loves the group Nuttin’ but Strings. Sherry Krueger thought that they were very original and inspiring.
Please give mi schedule for august and september 08
America’s got talent.
Thank you.
I would really like to hear what Nuttin but Strings could do with dance macabre by saint saens. I think they could bring their own heat to it and it would smoke!
I gotta tell ya, Nuttin but strings is got nuttin but a trip back to the NYC Subway system compared to some of the other talent on the 9-24-08 final show!
Nuttin against them… but…
A Vegas Show? C”Mon it would be like watching or (sleeping )to 90 minutes of Kenny G for Christ sakes!
C’mon there talented but really, could you listen to that squeaky violin and all that background ensemble which is far louder than they were for 90 minutes?
Who’s the winner? Word? Queen Emily! I could listen to her sing, her songs, old songs, classic songs, anyone’s songs for at least an hour and a half and probably like the show. That is true unfounded talent,and a story which out performs ANY of the acts on the stage….
My opinion, but I believe I’ve got the winner in hand with Queen Emily.
Well done.Its good information.
I love the the show Americins got talent but I had meany daems as a younger person I took 6 yaers of dance and 4 yaers of vioce lesons at 17 I waspusht in the street and all most died.And still draem of puforming on stage. Love Melelani Lisa Corwin

Ya know over the last few years I have enjoyed this show alot. But Bringing on Nick Cannon you have got to be kidding me. This guy has brought the level of enjoyment down so low. I loved him on hi shsow, but justv beacuse he married a famous singer should not let him ruin this show. His humor well he has none here anyway. Very bad and I would like to hear from other viewers. I am sure I am not alone. He is ruining your show.
i personally think that the crew breaksk8 should not be aloud to continue in the competition of americas got talent when they went to at least week 8 on the hit mtv show americas best dance crew. and if the judges dont know that they were on the show then they should be informed!!!!!!!!
BREAKSK8 the TRUE TALENT of AMERICA all home boys doing what THEY TAUGHT THEIR SELVES TO DO!! No blessing of vocals, NO gift of being able to dance, and NO teacher ever taught them. Its all ABOUT A DREAM, that THEY LEARNED, LIVED, WORKED, and FOUGHT for!!! ITS everything from our PAST, that BECAME PART OF GROWING UP, And its something POSITIVE for ALL KIDS, PEOPLE, RELIGIONS, LIFESTYLES, RICH or POOR, to ENJOY! BREAKSK8 is the PAST, THE PRESENT AND OUR KIDS FUTURE
I’d Like to See you bitches put on a pair of skates and do what these boys do, or even just turn around with them on, btw add a backflip with it, and bounce around on one 1 hand, dont forget to put it all into a dance, and not miss a beat, and be sexxy with it.
so now you tell me what talent is…
Bitches
Since Grandma Lee has done so many things in her life, I think it would be really entertaining to see her show photos of herself through the years (in the background)and do comedy on the different jobs she has had! She could tell jokes about being a school teacher or working at a radio station etc. Because of her age she wouldn’t run out of material that’s for sure.
Hoff is an Idiot! What a redneck racist he is! The judges clearly knew that Thia Mgia the 14 yr old singer had way more Talent than the boy ballet dancing panzy. Yet they voted for another white person over a more Talent ASIAN girl! Whats wrong the you stupid JUDGES! Get some Balls and do whats right! Racist Jack Asses!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this comment is not about last night show but just fyi
you remember Kari Callim great voice but not good looking. Simon is paying a lot of money to plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills to make her beatiful so she can come back next year to AGT and win the the millions dollars.
Please What is the name of the song which the group of teenagers dance on in it .. in season 2008 it was called Extreme dance !!
Thanks a lot!
