Although Gabriella Laberge’s lofty expectations for her America’s Got Talent audition nearly came crashing down at the first hurdle, the French-Canadian singer had high ambitions overall. Laberge played a nice violin part after an uneasy first interview, but it was the same as what you’d hear from any street musician on Main Street. While Simon Cowell readied his red buzzer to fire her, Laberge was planning an ace under her sleeve.
A lady named Gabriella walks on America’s Got Talent stage, introduces herself and tells the audience she is going to play the violin. She begins playing and the camera pans to Simon Cowell who is seemingly unimpressed. He raises his hand above the desk, poised ready to hit his red buzzer. Just before he presses it, Gabriella drops the violin and pulls outs an audition that not only stunned the judges, including Simon, but also went viral online. Watch video in comments below
