Singer Angelica Hale was just 9 years old when she competed on Season 11 of America’s Got Talent in 2017 and got the Golden Buzzer from guest judge Chris Hardwick. Fellow AGT judge Heidi Klum told Angelica: “You’re only four feet tall but you’re a giant!” and “I think you’re the best singer on the show.” Angelica made it to the finals but singing ventriloquist Darci Lynne Farmer won the show.
Two years later and Angelica, now 11, is singing at the 2019 Fourth of July celebration on the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol in Washington, DC. And she got to visit the White House with her family.
Angelica shared photos from the inside of the White House included photos with her standing and admiring the official portraits of First Lady Edith Roosevelt, wife of President Theodore Roosevelt, and Lady Bird Johnson, wife of Lyndon B. Johnson.
Earlier this year, Angelica competed on the first season of America’s Got Talent: The Champions, where she received the Golden Buzzer from Howie Mandel. (Card magician Shin Lim won.)
