America's Got Talent judges cheer as the Golden Buzzer is pressed
Following her impressive America's Got Talent audition back on June 25, 11-year-old Maya Neelakantan blew audiences away once again with a Quarterfinal performance that will go down in history. After seamlessly gliding her way through Papa Roach's "Last Resort" in the audition, a song known to be tricky to perform on the guitar, Maya took things up a notch by performing one of the toughest guitar challenges ever crafted — Metallica's "Master of Puppets.
Supported by an appropriately fiery backdrop, Maya casually walked around the stage, beaming from ear to ear, whilst she unconcernedly perfected one of music's hardest songs. Of course, she didn't just perfect the Metallica song, she used a blend of her Indian musical culture to twist a section of the performance and make it her own.
Once she had finished, Howie Mandel was the first to comment, noting just how much of a surprise she was. Mandel said, "You are a surprise, you're amazing, I love you and I think America's going to love you too." Next to comment was Heidi Klum, who called for America to get voting for Maya. Sofía Vergara remarked next on her disbelief, and even called it the "most fun I've had tonight.
'America's Got Talent's Quarterfinal 3 Was Full of Musical Talent The third of AGT Season 19's quarterfinals was musically heavy, with some of the best auditionees with a talent for the tuneful taking to the stage.
