Goodall received the Golden Buzzer on the season premiere, and told, “Nowhere, even remotely, could I ever have imagined what happened, happened.”
When he finished, with a standing ovation from the audience and judges alike, he recalled the feeling of speaking with Simon Cowell, Howie Mandel, Sofia Vergara and Heidi Klum.
“It’s very surreal for you to be that person on stage, to be talking to the people that you’ve watched for years, you know?” he said. “I mean, you’re actually here. You are living what you’re seeing on television. So, it’s very surreal.”
He said he barely remembers what he said with Vergara and Mandel, because he was completely blown away by Klum pushing the Golden Buzzer.
“To be honest with you, when I was singing, Heidi looked over and was talking to Howie, which now I know what she was saying. But when I was on stage, you don’t – you don’t hear what’s on the microphones, you know? So, I thought she didn’t like me,” Goodall said.
