Oh, the jugglers, the poets, the “scandalous varieties act,” and that dude who ate chilies. We recap this week’s talents.
If you missed this week’s show, you really missed out. Trevor Schoonraad, a pole dancer from Cape Town told the judges he “likes being naked.” His pole dancing skills left Kabelo speechless while Shado couldn’t take her eyes off him.
Jillian Van Ster, Facebook : “#POLEDANCER hmmmMM ....Cape Town has talent...”
@CarloStormz, tweeted: “That was a stunning #poleart performance. Elegant and entertaining. Top notch.”
Tronix, a dance group from Johannesburg, wowed everyone with their glow-in-the dark dance routine. Shado told them she couldn’t believe what she saw in front of her.
Dillon CrazyFeet Jacobs, Facebook: “TRONIX were the best performance for me ever seen on SAGT.”
@JoshPDickinson, tweeted: “Tronix was fantastic tonight on @SAsGotTalent one of my favourites.”
Both Trevor and Tronix went through to the next round, but the poets failed to impress the judges or the viewers.
@NotJustMyHair tweeted: “in one word: no. Focus on poetry more. Not performance!”
@miss_madam tweeted: “The poets are shocking so far.”
@Kaahsifa tweeted: “@sasgottalent i really doubt there's another Botlahe out there. Those poets were not inspiring.”
Arnold Abrahams, also known as “Mr. Numbers,” tried to win the judges vote with his memory skills, he handed a list with cellphone numbers to each judge but only got the first two cellphone numbers right!
@zainjeewa tweeted: “@SAsGotTalent pOoR uncle Mr Numbers lol maybe he only memorized the 1st few.”
Kiera McAfee from Cape Town moved to the next round with her “scandalous varieties act.” The strip show left Kabelo speechless, but Shado told her she didn’t think she would go all the way. The viewers were divided…
@StadOMac tweeted: “@SAsGotTalent wow hot hot hot,give us more, #SAGT.”
@Kaahsifa tweeted: “@sasgottalent noooo i can't believe the judges put Keira through!! She WASN'T entertaining! Anyways i doubt she'll make semis.”
Eleven year old Nadia van der Westhuizen started singing a duet with her grandfather Johan Kotze, but Ian stopped them halfway through and asked Nadia to sing solo. She got the judges vote and a standing ovation for her rendition of “New York, New York.”
@Chezz33 tweeted: “@SAsGotTalent Wow!Nadia is a potential winner!Gr8 to see our talent.”
Kelly Ambrose, Facebook: “Nadia was the star of night,dinamite comes in small packages.that huge voice inside of that small body.WOW!stund.”
@CarloStormz tweeted: “#NadiaVanDerWesthuizein should be a little Broadway princess with that voice and personality. @SAsGotTalent #SAGT Grandpa you did good.”
