Frum Kid on America's Got Talent!!

How cute is this???

I saw that also last night. He wont get all the way, but maybe through the next round.

For the record though, I dont think that kids under certain age should be on the show, since the top 10 winners tour the country. that would mean the kid is pulled out of school and his/her environment and away from his friends in order to perform, which would mean staying up alter than is good for kids.

That said, Ill still root for him.

(I mentioned his performance on the phone to a fiend and my son, who was supposed to be in bed heard me say a 'frum boy', so he came out, all shocked and wanted to see it. I told him 'see what can happen to little boys who practice piano.....'

I used to babysit for him! Such Nachas!

Also I believe he is on the most recent Shalsheles Junior CD!

Adorable!

Maybe this will motivate my kids to actually practice their piano! They were so much better about practicing in cold weather - now they just want to play outside!

he has quite a lot of clips on youtube. ive seen them a while back, he has great talent and im really glad he had the confidence to appear on national tv. We should broadcast more of talent and less of our problems.

Sweet. I'm not so "with it," is there a rule that the performances have to be so short? I heard him start singing and then all of a sudden it's over already!

seeker, I believe they get a time limit to perform. also, they edit out some parts of the performance, I assume due to time restraints.

I don't think they go on national tour. the winner gets a headline show in las vegas.

These young contestants barely make it to the real end. He's an adorable kid, but I don't believe he will win. He's not a million dollar act yet.

He is so adorable. Thanks for posting. He made us all proud. He is a courageous little guy to go on national TV. He handled himself beautifully when the judges were speaking with him. I think Howie Mandel was tickled pink to see him on stage. Yes

"Since season five, the show has also made the winner the headline act of a national tour with runners up following the final show, stopping in 25 cities in 2010."

Very cute!
