IDAHO FALLS — An 11-year-old Idaho Falls girl who stunned Utah Jazz fans while singing the National Anthem last October is on her way to audition for America’s Got Talent.
Paige Anne and her mother, Launie Anne, are driving to Arizona Wednesday night where Paige will try out for the reality show Saturday, EastIdahoNews.com reported.
“We submitted an online audition and then they responded that they had the tape and gave us an audition time,” Launie Anne told EastIdahoNews.com. “We’re excited to see what happens.”
Since performing at the Jazz game, Paige has sung at other events including at the 2018 Hunting Expo at the Salt Palace.
The Annes plan to document their trip to Arizona with live Facebook updates.
“She’s going to sing at every gas station so she can be ready,” Anne said. “I think she’s so much braver than anybody that I know. She can get up in front of anybody and sing in front of thousands and thousands of people and not bat an eye. It’s fun to see her wings grow. It’s fun to see her fly.”
