New Zealand's Got Talent - Episode One Performers
New Zealand's Got Talent - Episode One Performers
Sunday 15 September, TV ONE, 7.30pm
Tonight’s premiere episode of New Zealand’s Got Talent 2013 brought laughter, tears, and an incredible range of Kiwi talent to TV ONE.
From a 10-year-old who sings like an angel, to a highly entertaining 83-year-old magician, the show had something for everyone. Host Tamati Coffey took care of everyone side-of-stage, and even joined in on some of the dancing. Judges Jason Kerrison, Rachel Hunter and newcomer Cris Judd had an absolute ball watching the performances, but weren’t afraid to hit their red buzzers when an act was not quite up to scratch.
