Derek Hughes looked like he messed up, but his clumsy theatrics were just part of his master plan.
Soon enough, he left the judges gasping. The magician’s act, centered around telepathic abilities, was ultimately enough to advance him to the America’s Got Talent quarterfinals at Radio City Music Hall, with a chance of winning the whole thing.
Hughes has appeared on a variety of television shows, including The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and performs at different live performances across the country, according to his website. He’s next appearing at Iowa State University on August 21 and the University of North Texas on August 22.
