America’s Got Talent - Send little Kaitlyn Maher home!

Author: Rosie

In: America's Got Talent, Kaitlyn Maher, Las Vegas

For those of you not watching America’s Got Talent this season, contestant Kaitlyn Maher is an adorable 4-year-old girl. Her very young and raw talent just is not up to par with that of the older, more seasoned finalists.  She has absolutely no business being on this show, a show that will award a $1 million contract for a full-time Las Vegas revue to its winner–presumably an adult winner capable of handling that much income, a grueling weekly performance schedule, and fast-lane life in Sin City. 

Simply put, Kaitlyn Maher does not belong on America’s Got Talent. Not YET, anyway. She should have never been selected for the top 40, and the viewing public should not have voted her through to the top 20 this week. And if she wins this competition, it will ruin not only this entire show but, much more importantly, her entire life. Because whether or not Kaitlyn has coasted through on cuteness or on actual talent so far, the main point is: It’s cruel to keep her in this competition at this point.

Let Kaitlyn go home and sing for FUN–to Kidz Bop albums or to Barney episodes or in school plays or whatever–for at least a few more years. Let whatever talent she has to develop for another decade or so. And then let KAITLYN decide if a career in music, on television, or in Las Vegas is something she wants to pursue.  Source
