WATCH: 12-year-old pulls off incredible performance on America's Got Talent
Her original song wowed audiences
12-year-old Grace VanderWaal has blown away viewers on America’s Got Talent with her original song 'I Don't Know My Name'.
Her performance made such an impact that judge Howie Mandel pressed his golden buzzer, showering her with golden confetti.
The America’s Got Talent video has had over 10 million views since and has caught the attention of the world.
In a sweet message posted after, Grace thanked Howie for pressing the golden buzzer saying it ‘meant the world to her’.
The teen was even compared to a young Taylor Swift by Simon Cowell. On Twitter she admitted that this was ‘like a dream’.
Even actress Reese Witherspoon took to Twitter to say that Grace was ‘amazing’ and wished her all the best for her future.
Grace has only been playing the ukulele for a year and a half, having only bought one on her 11th birthday, and will now go straight to the live shows.
