America’s Got Talent has a new champion!
The milestone 20th season came to a close on Wednesday, Sept. 24, naming singer Jessica Sanchez as their winner. Sanchez beat out runner up, freestyle rapper Chris Turner, and walks away with the title of AGT champion, as well as the $1 million grand prize.
She immediately broke down in tears when host Terry Crews announced her name, telling him: “I’m sorry, I’m really emotional, this is amazing. Thank you so much!”
The moment was equally exciting for judge Sofía Vergara, who gave Sanchez her Golden Buzzer earlier in the season during the audition rounds.
