Destiny began singing, and instantly the judges were amazed.  Her voice sounded exactly like the soul legend, Aretha Franklin, and her performance was flawless.  The judges listened and were seen looking at each as if to say,  WOW, she has something special in that voice.

Chukenyere’s stage prescience was also very engaging.  She danced as she sang one of the toughest songs ever recorded.

When she finished, the audience erupted into a standing ovation as did the judges.  The camera panned to her grandmother, who was with her on the trip, and her reaction was priceless.  You could see how proud she was as she looked at the standing ovation from backstage.
