Some of us don’t realize our talents until we are older, but some discover their hidden talents at a very young age. For this little girl, the sky really is the limit. You’ll never guess what happened when Angelica Hale, a sweetheart of only 9 years old, took the stage.
Angelica’s family couldn’t have been more thrilled to support her in her dream of debuting on America’s Got Talent. Her parents looked on with pride and joy as Angelica walked into the center of the spotlight. The young girl had already experienced so much success, but making it onto the show wasn’t the only obstacle Angelica had faced.
The young starlet tackled an enormous obstacle early on in life. “When Angelica was four years old, she started coughing and having fevers. We brought her into the emergency room, and that’s when we found out she had double pneumonia,” her dad explained to NBC World of Dance. He also shared that her kidney had stopped working. It was a difficult time for the family, and one that they did not think they could make it past.
Despite this incredible hardship, Angelica and her parents never gave up hope. Thanks to her mother’s brave actions, Angelica was able to make a miraculous recovery. When the situation looked bleak, Angelica’s mother made the heroic decision to give her own kidney to her daughter. The transplant saved Angelica’s life. “We thought that we were about to lose her,” Angelica’s mother explained. There was no way she could watch her little girl suffer any longer.
Angelica was extremely appreciative of all that her mother had done for her. “She’s my hero,” Angelica declared, giving her mom a big hug. This little girl definitely went on to make her parents proud. Five years after those tragic events, she was about to sing in front of a live audience and countless online viewers. Everyone in the audience was proud of her for making it this far, but no one expected what happened next.
Angelica walked before the judges full of confidence. When asked who she wanted to be like, Angelica boldly stated that she wanted to be “the next Whitney Houston. I want to be a superstar.” The judges looked at each other, uncertain of whether or not this young girl could live up to those high aspirations. It didn’t take long for Angelica to prove herself.
The moment the girl opened her mouth to sing, the entire audience went into shock. As Angelica poured out a bold, full voice from her tiny body, many onlookers gasped. They were not expecting such a big voice from such a small girl! Angelica flawlessly belted out “Rise Up” by Andra Day. As she moved effortlessly through each note, this girl proved that her dreams of becoming a superstar were only a matter of time.
Angelica proved that anyone can make their dreams a reality. She overcame incredible obstacles in order to chase her dreams, and her success is an inspiration to anyone with a passion and a goal.
