Lavender Darcangelo has big dreams, and one of them just came true! On Tuesday’s episode of “America’s Got Talent,” the 27-year-old singer wowed the audience with her rendition of “Out Here On My Own,” originally performed by Irene Cara. It was a meaningful choice for Lavender, who admitted to judges that, as a blind person with autism, she didn’t feel “normal.” Her connection to the lyrics was clear throughout her truly moving audition.

All four judges were floored by Lavender’s performance, but Heidi Klum was especially touched – so much that she wanted to give the singer a leg up in the competition.
“I would love to be your cheerleader and hold your hand all the way to the finish line,” said Heidi, before awarding the contestant her Golden Buzzer.
