12-year-old Darcy Lynn Farmer from Oklahoma City performed yesterday on "Americaʼs Got Talent" ("America is looking for talent" or "America has talent") - an analogue of shows such as " National artist" or "Minute of Glory" on Russian television.

Darcy performed a duet with the Petunia doll. Petunia is a rabbit, as Darcy herself explained when answering a question from a jury member. You probably already understood that the girl from Oklahoma is a ventriloquist. Ventriloquism or ventrology is a stage technique in which a person (ventriloquist, ventrologist) speaks or sings without moving his lips, creating the illusion that the voice does not come from him, but from another subject, for example, a doll.

The young artist said that she began to engage in ventriloquism in order to overcome embarrassment. It was difficult for her to communicate with others, and with the help of ventrology it was easier to contact people.

The level of skill of the ventriloquist is measured by the ability to hide the fact that the sound, the voice comes from himself, while maintaining complete immobility on his face. Even imitating the conversation of another subject is quite difficult, but it is perhaps even more difficult to sing. When singing, it is necessary to inhale much more air than when talking, and inhale unevenly. Sing or sing simple musical works- this is for ventriloquists high level surmountable height. But Darcy set the bar high...

IN latest release“Americaʼs Got Talent” she (that is, Petunia) sang the song “Summertime” by composer George Gershwin from the opera “Porgy and Bess”, which is difficult even for ordinary performance. Moreover, not only did Darcy play a whole performance with Petunia in leading role, she still beautifully performed a complex composition, skillfully hiding the singing through her teeth.

The audience and the jury welcomed the performance young talent applause, and ex-member of the Spice Girl group Mel B pressed a special "gold" button. Each member of the jury is allowed to press this button only once during the entire show, and send the audition participant directly to the semi-finals, regardless of the opinion of the other judges. The use of the "golden button" (or "golden buzzer") in a show is an exceptional event.

Jury member Simon Cowell, known for his high demands on the contestants, said: “I will remember you in a week, in a month, in a year. You are both great,” he said. “I'm sure the rabbit is a real individual. I love you. I believe you will go far. You just changed your life, young lady,” said another judge, Howie Mandel.

The girl stated that she dreamed of getting on the show in order to keep the art of ventriloquism alive, because it is becoming rarer and rarer today.

At first it seemed that the girl could not surprise the audience with anything. By the way, you could even see how her lips were moving when the rabbit started talking.

But as soon as she sang the famous song "Summertime" with her mouth closed, the judges and the whole audience just opened their mouths

At the end of the performance, the whole audience gave Darcy a standing ovation, and as a result, she passed to the next round.

"You know what? I think your doll is very similar to you, the same charming and charming. My heart melted, you were gorgeous. I'm trying to describe how incredible it was," said singer Melanie Brown, after which she pressed the so-called golden buzzer ( golden buzzer), which gives the right to automatically skip one of the participants in the next round for the transfer to any jury member, regardless of the opinions of the others.

Congratulations to Darcy and Petunia!
