Born on December 20, 1978, Michael Grimm was crowned the winner of America’s Got Talent season five in 2010. He auditioned for the show in Los Angeles – with the show airing on June 1, 2010.
He got praise from all three judges and advanced to the second stage of Vegas Week. During the ‘Vegas Week,’ his performance of Try a Little Tenderness was criticized by Piers Morgan for being way over 90 seconds and could have gotten him disqualified. However, he still advanced to the quarterfinals.
Grimm performed Tired of Being Alone at the quarterfinals stage and received praise and support once again to advance to the semifinals. During the semifinals performance, he performed You Can Leave Your Heart On, while recovering from a dehydration-related illness, but still managed to deliver an incredible performance to advance to the final stage of the competition.
