America's Got Talent: Marc Anthony Look-alike Edition

GiggleSugar — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 09:00:00 -0700

I like to think that although I have my delusions — nachos have no calories, cats love it when I talk to them, etc. — I don't have delusions about talents I don't have. Take Ronny here. This "weirdly entertaining" man who looks "like a Marc Anthony that's been shrunk" really, really wants to move on to the next stage of the America's Got Talent competition in Vegas. Sharon and the Brit say yes, but David Hasselhoff thinks he's untalented. You may want to look closely at your future plans if the Hoff says you have no talent.

Thanks, eBaum's World!

Cute Alert: Adorable Kid Sings "Ben"

GiggleSugar — Sun, 06 Jul 2008 02:00:00 -0700

We're used to seeing weirdos and no-talents perform on America's Got Talent, but the following will warm your heart and bring a tear to your eye. Nine-year-old David here was diagnosed with autism and didn't speak until he was three. The guy who drove his bus to school, though, told his mom he would sing all the way to school and all the way back. What a treat! He's got a lovely little voice reminiscent of Michael Jackson's as a kid. And here he is singing "Ben." (Sniffle, sniffle.)

Dubious Talent of the Day

GiggleSugar — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 08:00:00 -0700

On a recent episode of America's Got Talent, the lovely and talented Busty Heart busted up some objects with her ample assets. My favorite part of this (besides the aforementioned destruction) is the genuine shock you can see on the faces of folks in the audience. Your mouth will be hanging open after watching this, too, so plan ahead and position your hand near your chin to close it up.

America's Got Talent Performer Has a Surprise!

GiggleSugar — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 14:00:00 -0700

In the words of Sharon Osbourne, Jonathan here is very, very naughty. He starts out playing a trombone (snooze) and then busts some moves that take the performance to a whole new place. Tricky! (Also, is it just me, or does the Hoff seem surprisingly sane these days?)

Britney Spears on America's Got Talent?

GiggleSugar — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 08:00:00 -0700

Since when does lip-synching count as talent? The following impersonator made it to the next round of the America's Got Talent competition for his outstanding lack of vocal skill. But I guess the whole lip-synching act isn't too far-fetched when one is impersonating Britney Spears . . .

Gumby Guy Gets Graphic

GiggleSugar — Mon, 20 Aug 2007 03:00:00 -0700

"The Rubberboy" made an appearance on "America's Got Talent" and successfully rubbed everyone the wrong way with this act. I mean, did we really need to see a man sniff his own rear end? It's too bad that little box he climbed in and out of didn't come with a lock and key.

Beethoven Is Rolling Over In His Grave

GiggleSugar — Wed, 01 Aug 2007 02:00:00 -0700

With their mullets, beer bellies, and blue jean overalls, these dudes look like they're about to hit the porch for a belch off. In reality, they're about to appear on TV to give their best rendition of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony-- equipped with no instruments...but themselves.

Shakira Impersonator Needs A Day Job

GiggleSugar — Tue, 03 Jul 2007 07:00:00 -0700

This Shakira impersonator must be making the reality show rounds cuz I swear I saw her act on "America's (Not) Got Talent" a few weeks ago and it didn't disappoint in a freak show sort of way. So here she is ~~auditioning~~ mopping the floors for "El Factor X." Her hips do lie (unfortunately), so consider yourself warned.

America's Got Talent?

GiggleSugar — Thu, 21 Jun 2007 07:00:00 -0700

Or maybe it's indigestion. These two cuties were given the Dodge "Crazy Caliber Talent" seal of approval, so what do I know anyway? Here's their rendition of "Take Me Out To The Ball Game." After listening to their, uh, "singing," I'm just wondering where these two have hidden their beer bellies.
