10-Year-Old Sings Miley Cyrus’ ‘Wrecking Ball’

Pranysqa Mishra, a 10-year-old singing sensation from Tampa, Fla., delivered a jaw-dropping rendition of Miley Cyrus’ hit “Wrecking Ball” during the quarterfinals of America’s Got Talent‘s 19th season.

Known for earning Heidi Klum’s Golden Buzzer earlier in the season, Mishra once again proved why she is a standout contender in her latest showstopping performance on Sept. 3.

Taking on the emotionally charged ballad, Mishra performed with grace and maturity beyond her years, drawing rave reviews from the judges. “You didn’t have a drummer or bass to hide behind. It was just you and the piano,” Heidi Klum told her. “You did it so amazingly. Congratulations.”

Simon Cowell was also blown away by Mishra’s talent, saying, “You sounded amazing, seriously. Your potential is really exciting.”

Howie Mandel added, “You’re 10 years old, but you have the talent of someone who’s been performing for decades.”

The young singer’s journey has been remarkable. Mishra has performed the American national anthem at major sporting events, including the Miami Heat vs. Utah Jazz NBA game and the NCAA Men’s Basketball tournament.

Her AGT performance, however, pushed her into new territory, taking on a Miley Cyrus anthem that was no easy feat.

The judges all stood in awe of her rendition. Sofia Vergara called it “breathtaking,” and said, “You deserve for everybody to vote tonight for you.” Mandel praised her, saying, “You could win this whole thing.”

Mishra humbly responded, “I’m so blessed to sing on this world’s biggest stage in front of the beautiful audience.”

“Wrecking Ball,” originally performed by Miley Cyrus, became a pop culture sensation when it topped the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks in 2013 and has received over a billion views on YouTube.

The pint-sized powerhouse’s journey on AGT continues, with fans eagerly watching her next steps in the competition. Check out her performance below.
