Meet Courtney Hadwin, a name you won’t forget. Her recent audition on America’s Got Talent has taken the internet by storm, garnering over six million views on YouTube alone. Watch the video below to witness her incredible talent from the moment she starts singing.
Courtney Hadwin understandably felt nervous as she took the stage on one of the biggest platforms of her life. With only a minute and a half to captivate the judges and move forward in the competition, the pressure was on.
The judges, understanding her nerves, offered words of comfort and encouragement. Mel B reassured her, “It’s okay to be nervous. You’re here for a reason, so go ahead and good luck.” These words seemed to boost Courtney’s confidence.
When Courtney began singing ‘Hard To Handle’ by the Black Crowes, the judges and the audience were left in awe. Simon Cowell likened her to a lion, and Howie Mandel remarked, “You’re from a whole different era, not from this time.” Mandel even drew comparisons between Courtney and the legendary Janis Joplin.
