What did the judges say about Freckled Zelda?
When Wilson first took to the AGT stage, the judges were skeptical about her audition, but that quickly changed once she started singing.
Her rendition of Colors of The Wind was met with a standing ovation from the crowd and praise from the judges.
Simon Cowell was among the first to comment on her performance and admitted he was wrong about her.
“When you came out, I thought it was going to be really terrible. I did, and you actually have a really good voice,” Cowell said.

Sofia Vergara echoed Cowell’s statements and then asked her if she still wanted to “sing with the outfit,” to which Wilson replied, “Yeah, I’m 100% fairy. It’s me.
Heidi Klum then called Wilson “unique and different”, and Howie Mandel gave his first yes to the music fairy.
