Michael Ketterer
Pediatric nurse, Michael Ketterer, stole the hearts of Americans across the country, nevermind that, people across the globe. He is not only a nurse but a father to six children whom he and his wife adopted out of the foster system. Back to his unbelievable talent now, Michael has the voice of an angel. He captivated all and managed to sweep Simon right of his feet and was gifted the golden buzzer from him. Ketterer placed fifth in the show overall but was arrested the following day on domestic violence allegations.

Roberta Battaglia
10-Year-old Roberta has been singing since she was 3, she started out singing with her dad who also simply loves to sing. Roberta took the stage filled with emotion and excitement, the light in her eyes showed that just being on the show was enough for her. She sang “Shallow” by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. Simon offered her a glass of water, to calm the nerves but no one expected what was to follow. Roberta was a pack of dynamite! She killed the audition and guest judge, Sofia Vergara, simply had to slam that buzzer.
