Darci Lynne Farmer liked to sing as a youngster, but she was so nervous that she never got to display her skill in front of an audience.

That is until she discovered her talent for ventriloquism.
With a little encouragement from her parents, she was crowned International Mini Miss around the age of 10.

She met International Teen titleholder Laryssa Bonacquisti, a teenage ventriloquist, there.

Dari’s skills quickly began to wow spectators.

What’s more disturbing about her ventriloquist performance is that she makes her puppets sing.
Darci has the ability to sing while keeping her mouth closed!

Darci and her puppet, a cute, feminine rabbit named Petunia, performed “Summertime” from Porgy and Bess on the twelfth season of America’s Got Talent in 2017.

Mel B was so thrilled that she gave Lynne her golden buzzer, which brought the then-little girl to tears.
Within 30 hours of airing, the performance had become the most viewed video in the show’s history, ranking fourth on YouTube’s list of the top 10 trending videos of 2017.

Darci has returned to AGT!
Lynne returns to the stage, this time all grown up and glowing, to perform “Let the good times roll” with Oscar.

She seemed to be more at ease on stage now!

Darci asks Oscar about his dating life before the song, and he answers with a humorous tale about a girlfriend.
Oscar claims that Samantha the squirrel never sits still.

Have you ever had a hyper girlfriend?

Oscar goes into a rage, telling Darci that Samantha drives him insane at times.

Isn’t that what partnerships are all about?

In classic entertainer flair, Lynne segues into telling Oscar that he is worrying too much and should simply let the good times roll. I believe the crowd understood.
This viewer also offered an insightful comment.

Can’t get enough of Darci on AGT? She’s appeared in every season since she won. But I’m not complaining. She’s incredible and never disappoints.

“I love how Darci’s performance has received far more views than the reigning champion’s.”

Just watch Darci sing without moving her mouth!
She sings far better than most people when their mouths are open.

Not to belittle other singers, but try to sing without opening your mouth.

Darci effortlessly strikes note after note!

Even the four judges are participating!
“How does this lady sing better than 90% of today’s top artists with her mouth closed?” “Amazing.”

Rahul Soni added his thoughts.

Darci is a natural. It’s difficult not to like this young woman, and even if you’re not a fan of ventriloquists, you can’t dispute Lynne’s singing ability.

Consider what she could accomplish with a microphone and moving lips.

Don’t even bother asking how she does it. Her lips are firmly closed.

Watch her performance in the video below to see how rapidly she is maturing!
