Lonesome Rhodes August 28 Author Share August 28 I was gobsmacked by the precision of Sabrina and the inventiveness and lightning quick changes from skirt to cape, and back. I cannot believe the timing of the movement of the "capes." How did they manage it? They've set a standard for large group dance that may never be met again on AGT. There have been others who have been fantastic with arm and hand movement and others who had tremendous choreography they executed with their full bodies. I've never seen an act that incorporated the elements of dance with a prop as stunningly as these young ladies. To quote Simon, "Brilliant!" Now, bad Simon made an appearance tonight with the shade he threw at this group. I loved that the audience was going berserk (as I would have), which belied his deception. There was most certainly some agenda beyond the talent displayed on that stage in that moment. It's fine to not fully appreciate a given category of performance. Just don't lie about a singular achievement. Man, I felt like I was transported to Idol where Abdul was disgusted with his deceit. The aerialist was great. But, that isn't really my cup of tea. She absolutely earned a ton of votes, though. Another style I just do not care for are the shouting singers, as in a lot of Gospel singing. Imagine 90 minutes of that in concert! Ugh. Of course Dee Dee was awarded Heidi's GB. The talent required to do this form of singing is certainly evident. It is evident in any of hundreds of churches across the USA on a weekly basis. The magician's presentation is turrible. I get that it is a vestige of his health issues. He deserves a boatload of credit. No question. However, he does not merit a Semi-Finals. Maya rocks. So did the session band behind her. Definitely one of my votes tonight. The results could go most any which way. Not unlike the food Jellyboy eats. 1 Link to comment
Lonesome Rhodes August 29 Author Share August 29 Classic AGT results. Simon's shade has often carried the day and it did so here again. At least Kelsey made it. Link to comment

There have been others who have been fantastic with arm and hand movement and others who had tremendous choreography they executed with their full bodies. I've never seen an act that incorporated the elements of dance with a prop as stunningly as these young ladies. To quote Simon, "Brilliant!" Add me to that list. I thought they did a great job so when Simon, and well, all the judges were not impressed with their dancing, I called BS. They were awesome but obviously not a "show" favorite. Then Simon completely dismissing the Arieal act because she is a dentist and doesn't need to win. Or some stupid reasoning he used. I thought she too was amazing and her joy in doing her craft came across the screen in waves. Simon must have either felt bad or took so much shit from people, that he back pedaled on his comment the next night. So those sweet dancers did not make it. Thanks Simon. 1 Link to comment
