AMERICA’S Got Talent is airing a new episode of audition tonight, and one preview shows contestant Ben Waites leaving one of the judges in tears.
The 32-year-old contestant from Nashville said he is a southern gospel singer and a vocal coach.
He performed True Colors, by Cyndi Lauper, and explained to the judges that he picked that song because “it’s able to communicate a message of hope.”
Judge Sofia Vergara became emotional during Waites’ audition, which will air during tonight’s episode of America’s Got Talent, at 8pm on NBC.
