Richard Goodall takes the crown! America’s Got Talent 2024 winner with record-breaking votes and $1 million prize

Richard Goodall wowed the judges over the past several months and wowed viewers of the show to keep voting for him after singing songs like Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’ ” and Survivors “Eye of the Tiger.”

The journey to this point has taken months. Back in May, we learned the West Vigo Middle School janitor was about to make an appearance as a contestant on AGT. It was all thanks to a Tik Tok video of him singing to students.

“She come up with the kindergarten teachers and they said that it was at 100,000 thousand views and I said is that good and she said that she didn’t even have 1,000 followers. By the end of that weekend, it was a million,” Richard Goodall explained.

What Goodall could not tell us back then, was that he’d received a golden buzzer from AGT judge Heidi Klum. It sent him straight to the quarter-final round.

After succeeding in the quarter-finals, Goodall came home to a welcome back rally at the school he’d cleaned for many years. He spoke to students and staff sharing an inspiring message.

“You can achieve anything you want at any age and it don’t matter what you look like. It don’t matter what color your hair is, what color your eyes are. If you just keep going and perfect what you do, where you’re at eventually at some point, someone is going to notice,” said Goodall.

It was then back to AGT’s semi-finals and onto the finale where he was much loved by the judges.

“He was a hero genuinely. He’s like the man who stood up for every underdog out there,” said AGT judge Simon Cowell.

“He touches my heart, my soul and I just know he touched everyone else’s heart and soul at home too.”

He’s also loved by many people, but he says, he’s not letting the fame effect him.

“I’m gonna stay that humble person. No matter what I’m doing or where I’m at,” added Goodall.

Richard Goodall’s journey has been incredible and watch the moment his name was called for the $1 million prize below.

WOMAN RUINED 8-HOUR FLIGHT FOR ALL PASSENGERS – AFTER THE FLIGHT, THE CAPTAIN DECIDED TO PUT HER IN HER PLACE HIMSELF. It was a long flight after my swimming competition, and I had only one wish — to put a mask over my eyes and fall asleep. Right? Nope! Ever since we took off, I knew I’d have issues with the lady on my left (aisle seat). She was ringing the flight attendant button like there was a fire in our aisle and complaining non-stop about how both of us (the girl in the window seat and I) should be moved because we had “taken her place.” Then, aisle Greta stood up and demanded that someone switch seats with her because “it’s not fair she has to sit with two fat people” (I’m just tall) when she paid the same amount for her seat as we did for ours, and we were apparently “taking over” hers. That didn’t work for her, so she spent the whole flight kicking my arm and leg while I prayed for it to end faster. When we landed, she unbuckled and darted to the front of the plane to get off first. But SUDDENLY, our captain made an announcement and came out to ⬇Continues in the comments

JOKE OF THE DAY: A truck driver walks into a cafe on the Hume Highway with a full-grown emu behind him. The waitress asks for his order. The truckie says, “I’ll have a hamburger, chips and a coffee.” He turns to the emu, “What about you?” “Sounds good to me, I’ll have the same,” the emu replies. The waitress returns with their orders. “That’ll be $10.50 please.” The truckie reaches into his pocket, pulls out the exact change and pays her. The next day, the truckie and the emu return. He repeats his order, “A hamburger, chips and a coffee, please.” The emu repeats, “Sounds good. Same for me, please.” Once more, the truckie reaches into his pocket and produces the exact amount. This is their routine for a couple of days. One night, the two enter again. “I guess you’ll have the usual?” asks the waitress. “No, it’s Friday night. I’ll have a steak, baked potatoes and a salad,” says the truckie. “Sounds great, same for me, too,” says the emu. The waitress brings the order and says, “That will be $32.65.” Once again the man pulls the exact change out of his pocket and places it on the table. The waitress can’t hold back her curiosity any longer. “You’ve really got me there, mate. How do you manage to always have the exact change every time?” âŹ‡ïžJoke continues in the first comment

MY MIL “ACCIDENTALLY” DROPPED OUR GENDER REVEAL CAKE – BUT HER SMILE TOLD A DIFFERENT STORY. When I say my MIL ruins milestones, I’m not exaggerating. She wore white to our wedding (“It’s cream”), posted our pregnancy before we could, and blurted our baby name to her bridge group—then “forgot” it was a secret. So for our gender reveal, I kept things small. Honestly, I didn’t even want to invite her. But my husband said, “She means well. She won’t ruin a simple cake-cutting.” Oh, how wrong we were. We hosted it in our backyard—close friends, family, pink-and-blue treats, and a gorgeous cake with the big reveal inside. Jenny, my SIL, picked it up right before the event. Everything was perfect. Then MIL arrived—late, wearing hot pink (subtle), fake air kisses, and circling the cake like a vulture. “It’s so tall,” she said. “Are you sure it’s stable?” Then—right as we were about to cut the cake, cameras ready—she lunged forward. “Oh no, I’ll just move it a little closer—” The cake toppled. Smashed. Frosting and layers everywhere. Gasps. Silence. And MIL? Standing there, hands over her mouth, smiling. Not a big grin—just enough to say, “Oops
 guess it’s a girl! Granny knew first!” I turned away, fighting tears. One moment. Just one memory she couldn’t ruin. AND THAT’S WHEN IT HAPPENED. My SIL, Jenny, burst out laughing. “Just like I expected.” She went to her car
 and came back with a BOX. âŹ‡ïž
