Top 10 Finalists Named on 'America's Got Talent' (VIDEO)

by Aimee Deeken, posted Sep 2nd 2010 7:40AM

Nick Cannon Names 'America's Got Talent' FinalistsNick Cannon announced the five acts that would complete the Top 10 finalists on this season's 'America's Got Talent' (Wed., 9PM ET on NBC). Were there any surprises?

[Spoiler alert.]


Well, one shoo-in made it through: the talented Jackie Evancho. The 10-year-old opera singer humbly thanked America for voting for her. More shocking was that 'AGT' will have its first magician in the finals: Michael Grasso.

The judges had to pick between Studio One Young Beast Society and Alice. Check the video for their decision and the other winners.

I think Alice Tan Ridley got robbed! She is so much better than a lot of those singers!

Wow! What a terrific season of AGT this year. The best yet by far. Nick Cannon is a superb host and the talent is phenomenal. AGT this season makes American Idol look bush league by comparison. I think it will between Jackie and Mike Grimm.

I agree with you. AGT is far superior to American Idol in overall talent this season. Aside from having better singers on the show, I like AGT better because the JUDGES are better. Simon Cowell couldn't pick talent outside a pop singer if his life depended on it. Jackie and Michael and Prince can sing rings around any of Idol's top 3.

I agree. Jackie is great but Michael Grimm is in a world of his own. Remember Kevin Skinner vs. Barbara Padilla last year? Same thing this year except Michael is a thousand times better singer than Skinner.

While I agree that eliminating Alice Tan-Ridley was a wrong decision, the notion that it was consciously done to give "Jackie a free ride" is preposterous. Even without Alice, Jackie absolutely isn't a lock to win AGT this season, not by any stretch of the imagination. Jackie is a wonderful talent but there's a few others standing in the way: Great performers like Michael Grimm, Prince Poppycock, the magician Michael Grasso, and others. Jackie will have to be especially good in the Top 10 showdown to make it to the Top 3, much less win it all. Personally, I believe the winner will be either Jackie or Poppycock or Michael Grimm. My favorite is MG.

Jackie, Prince Poppycock, and Michael Grimm for the Top 3. It was sad that Alice Tan-Ridley didn't make it. She's a great singer.

I think it'll come down to a little princess and the prince himself... Jackie and Poppycock...

I'm also pissed that those no talent lunger sisters were put through and Alice Tan Ridley was sent packing... not right.

The judges final decision was pathetic. All they did was sent Alice Tan Ridley home to insure that Jackie Evancho would have a free ride. Jackie is amazing, has a voice like an angel, but she is also so full of herself that she doesn't need the viewers votes. She is 10 years old; is she going to quit school to do a Las Vegas show. She has her whole life ahead of her; and Alice has worked all her life and also has an amazing voice and this may be her last chance. To bad that "cute" counts more. At least now we don't have to waste anymore time watching to see who wins; she was crowned last night.

I think it should be down between Fighting Gravity and Jackie in the final two.
