She's a very talented little girl but I don't go to Vegas to see kiddies perform. I guess if people want to bring their children they now have another place to send them, although I'm sure the tickets will be expensive.

I said the same thing...I thought they would be looking for more of a Vegas type of entertainer. I thought everyone was super talented though:-)

This is just my opinion, America got it wrong. A talent like Brian Justin Crum is overlooked for a 12 year old who when she sings you can hardly understand the words. Yes she is talented but there were acts with a whole lot more talent than her. I don't know about anyone here but I do know there is no way I would buy a ticket to see her perform or buy anything she records.

I repeat, this is just my opinion.

Bummer, I'm disappointed...there was certainly better talent on the show who deserved to win..."JC"

I had never watched the show before this season, and I won't bother to watch next year. On this show, it's not actually about *talent*, it's about who has the "ohhhhh, isn't that ADORABLE" factor voted on by a bunch of 12 year olds. Good to know. I can now relegate it to my kwap pile as far as shows worth watching.

I think the younger set got the voting methods down. There were four methods and you could vote 10 times for each. I voted only on my ipad, so ten votes. Maybe next time we should vote more too. Yep the kids taught me a lesson!

All her songs sounded the same to me and I couldn't understand most of the words because she mumbled!! In my opinion, not talented enough to win. Probably had a lot of family and the whole area she is from who voted. Definitely not as great as the clairvoyant and the girl who choreographed her own cir'd'solei type act as well as the other singers!!!

I was so dissappointed. I agree that it must be the tweens voting all day. There was so much talent this year...I would have been happy for any one of the ten but her. I would rather watch tapeface. I think she may have talent but this season should not have been her.

I sooo disagree with America on this one too. I was for Linkin Bridge. And while I knew they probably wouldn't win I hoped for them to get as much exposure as possible. It seemed the judges were VERY surpirsed about Brian though!

I hope Grace will be okay emotionally, She seemed to be very stressd - and then relieved - when each performance was completed. Bianca Ryan was super young when she won season 1 - although the demands on the winner were different then. Bianca's 'star' came and went pretty fast.

I never understood all the gushing that the judges did over her, "the next Taylor Swift" per Simon Cowell (I don't like her anyway) or Howie making her his golden buzzer. With all the talent that was on the stage, anyone of them should have beat her out. I just hope that each of them reach their dream and see that you don't need to have a bunch of tweens voting you through. How much of her voice and strumming the uke could you stand. I am waiting for Sal to put out his first album.

Agree with the previous posters - I just don't understand the appeal of this young singer. Don't think she has a good voice, can't understand her words, her songs have no melody, uke strumming is amateur, and don't think she is Los Vegas show material. There is something about the voting that doesn't ring authentic to me. As for the others - they are sure to get some authentic bids for their talents - I'm sure each one of them will get recordings contracts soon. This year's AGT has been one of the most talented I can remember but I think that future auditions should be limited to a certain age and eliminate these youngsters.

She absolutely deserves her spot in the limelight, she is very talented, especially for her young age.

But she it too young to handle what is about to happen to her, she is not what people go to Vegas to see, and I hope we aren't on here in five years discussing her total downfall and demise.

The show is all about finding a Vegas act, but I think America just goes on a whim and votes for who they like, whether or not the act is suited to the prize.

There were other performers much better suited to play Vegas, in my opinion, and I'm sure a number of them will be doing so.

Grace is wonderful, unique talent. I'm so glad she won! A lot of the acts are not appropriate for Vegas. I'm sure they'll let her put the money towards her college education or recording her music. Yay Grace!!

I,m still bummed. This is why I stopped watching DWTS, AI when it was on and all the rest of those shows, now this one too. Waste of time. Not about talent, but who can use the IPad or I Phone the most to vote.

Some people saw talent. In all my 80 years of seeing real talent, this was not in my scope of talent, but the world has changed where so call talent exists. There was a lot of talent on that stage, she was not one of them. OMG, those other contestants must be scratching their heads. Then I never thought TS had talent and look at her today. I keep going around shaking my head. CLAIRVOYANT WAS TALENT.

I like Grace a lot and she has a very unique voice.

I loved her music but in small doses.

She also writes her own music. I think when Stevie Nicks came out and endorsed her, that was a big coup for her in winning.

I just hope that she stays as sweet as she is now. Her voice was different and that's what seems to be in fashion....emphasis on "different."
