TORONTO, March 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Key moments from tonight’s episode of Canada’s Got Talent, include:
- DUO DESIRE (Las Vegas, USA) had everyone in suspense when they performed their aerial act from 15 feet above the stage!
- DANA SCHIEMANN (Toronto, ON) left the judges split in their voting with her surprising guitar performance.
- NICOLAS RIBS (Lyon, France) captivated the audience with his magic act which Howie called “the best magic I’ve ever seen in my history of being a talent judge.”
- Lilly hit the Golden Buzzer for Denesuline singer REBECCA STRONG (Prince Albert, SK) after her moving cover of “Stone Cold” by Demi Lovato.
- TRAVIS LINDSAY (Halifax, NS) charmed the judges with a comedy act that left Howie saying, “I think you just changed your life.”
- Audience member SAM BABIN (Moncton, NB) was caught by surprise when an impromptu nomination from her sister led to an audition later that evening. Sam roused 4 yeses and a standing ovation, with an amazing vocal performance of “Creep” by Radiohead.
- MEGAN & CAMERON (Charlottetown, PEI) impressed the judges with their dance to “The Time of My Life” originally by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes.
The winner of Canada’s Got Talent’s Million Dollar Season receives a life-changing prize of $1M – the biggest cash prize in Canadian television history – thanks to Rogers, plus financial advice from CIBC. And that’s not all! Every Golden Buzzer recipient will receive $25,000 (totalling $150,000), courtesy of CIBC, to help realize their ambitions.
