So cute. Hey! Hi! Hello! I can't believe I'm here. You're here. We're wearing the same color, of course. Oh my gosh, yes. Brownish, yes. What's your name? My name is Victoria Johnson. Hi, Victoria. Where are you from? I'm from Boca Raton, Florida. How old are you? I'm just turned 16 in May. I'm 16. Who are you here with today? I'm here with my mom. She's my best friend and my biggest supporter. I hope that's what my daughter says about me in the car. Oh my gosh. Alright, well what are you going to sing for us? I've got a fun song. It's No Excuses by Meghan Trinner. Okay! Nice and sassy and fun. Yeah, just lets me be free. Why are you acting hard when you're just a baby? Boy, I keep it real with you, but you're trying to play me. Have you lost your mind? Open up. You must have confused me, confused me with someone else. There ain't no excuses, excuses, babe. You're my, my race. You better be in that. Oh, my. Open those eyes. You must have confused me, confused me with someone else. There ain't no excuses, excuses, babe. You're my, my race. You better be in that. Can you just sing that better than that and give it a little bit more volume? Okay. Better than. Milk it. Better. Okay, great. And so that's kind of like the exclamation mark of the song. Yeah. So you can do your whole thing, show off your character, but you better go better than that. Yeah, better than that. Puree it. Yeah. You know? Oh, my. Bless you. My dog. Oh, oh. My dog was just here and he's got me sleeping. Sorry. It's quite all right. You better than that. Time out. That's how you do it. What do you think, Luke? Yeah, you have like a little star factor going on. You deliver the stuff like a star. You're animated kind of like the star. You are definitely 16. That's good. Yeah, I'm kind of digging what you're about. Yeah. Your confidence is matching your vocal. Thank you. I'm anxious to see what slow songs sound like and all of that, but you are definitely a wide-eyed and definitely enthusiastic yes. Thank you. Victoria, it's a yes for me. Thank you so much. And it's a yes for me. Thank you. You have a very unique golden ticket heading your way because it's been being chewed up by my dog. Oh, my gosh. Chops, here. Sit up there. Oh, my gosh. One, two, three. You're going to Hollywood. All right, Chops. Take it to her. Get it. Give it to her. Get it, Chops. Drop it. Release. Chops wants to go to Hollywood, too. I'm going to Hollywood. This ticket may have holes in it and it may smell like dog breath, but I am so happy to be holding it. Oh, my God. It's so beautiful. You're getting the slobber in her hair. That's a first, by the way, the ticket being delivered like that. Watch this. Oh, yeah. Getting so wet. Oh, my God. He's drooling all over the edge. Oh, my God. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. I'm going to Hollywood.
