America's Most Talented Kid
From Free net encyclopedia
America's Most Talented Kid is an American television series that originally aired on NBC in 2003. It was hosted by Mario Lopez. Three age groups were formed (4-7, 8-12, 13-15) and the children would perform songs, dance numbers, magic, and other forms. They were judged by Lance Bass and two other rotating celebrity judges.
A limited-run series on NBC to compete with the growing talent show trend in reality television, it would later move to the PAX Network with Dave Coulier as a host and judged by Daryl Sabara, Scarlett Pomers, and Bobb'e J. Thompson. The Grand Champion of this episode of "America's Most Talented Kids" was 13 year old rock violinist/singer/songwriter, Antonio Pontarelli.
