And I was like, well, she laughs.

She likes me.

And then, uh, they didn't like me and, uh, it's all good.

You know, I, I think I wasn't ready.

I was so glad they didn't pick me back then.

You know, I'm so glad they picked me when I, when they picked me because I had more material developed, but I, I was, I, the reason I auditioned for America's Got Talent, you know, I was like, uh,

I, you know, I was broke.

Like I had to borrow money from my first episode to get a haircut for my brother.

Wow.

So I just was like, I need something.

And then I, man, I remember like there's some people, I don't want to throw them on the bus, but they were like begging me.

they were like begging me not to do America's Got Talent.

They're like, don't do it.

You know, you gotta like, cause people always think, you know, back to like American Idol when it first started, when people win, there's like a contract and you're stuck in the contract.

You can't be yourself.

And America's Got Talent, they don't want, they don't want that.

They like superstars.

So when you blow up and become a superstar, we're like, Hey, we were a part of that.

They liked it.

They like when I do, when you do well, you know, especially on your own.
