America's Got Talent

So, last night I watched America's Got Talent, just like I do every Tuesday in the summer when it's on. It always amazes me how brave the people going on stage are. I mean, performing in front of the America's Got Talent audience must be difficult. The people in the audience boo every chance they get, and sometimes I actually feel bad for the performers, of course I only feel bad for the performers that get booed if their not cocky. Half the time the people that do the worst are the ones who think they're the best. They talk about how amazingly good they are at whatever talent it is they think they have, and then they go out and make complete fools of themselves. I guess it shows that it's important to be confident without being arrogant. Even if you are great at whatever you do, everyone will like you a lot more if you're humble instead of conceited. If you're conceited, you might end up being your one and only fan. My favorite contestant on the show so far performed last week. He was definitely not arrogant, he was completely humble and extremely nervous but he had no need to be because I think he did a great job. He sang and played his guitar in front of the judges and the audience despite his nervousness and the fact that his largest audience before that had only been the elderly people at the nursing home he works at. A nineteen year old who cares enough about people to work in a nursing home. If you ask me, he should win something just for that. Anyway, below is the link to a video of his performance from the America's Got Talent Youtube page. His name is Nathaniel Kenyon, and he sang Matt Nathanson's Come on Get Higher. As promised, here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLKR09J-ehc&feature=related
P.S. America's Got Talent is on again tonight, so if you don't watch it, I would say check it out. It's a great show, it'll make you laugh, cry, smile, and maybe even leave you completely awe-struck.
