I was actually there for the live finale, and trust me—the crowd you hear in the YouTube video is maybe 20% of how loud it really was in the theater! 🔥

For some other contestants, the MC had to tell the audience to scream and cheer to create the live-show atmosphere. But for her? No instructions needed. The crowd went absolutely CRAZY the second she appeared on stage—before she even sang a note or put her hand on the strings. That energy was REAL. 🤘🔥

it was her low tone that first got my attention pre AGT then I learned that she can shred. Then I saw she was an incredible performer.. The girl has got it all

I love when you said "she's so metal and the audience is loving it". I really admire that she knows who she is and sticks to it. Most people expected her to edge toward more pop as the contest went deeper but she never did. Her authenticity is very attractive. She also has a way of making metal appealing to people who don't normally like it, maybe because she looks less threatening than many metal singers and because she can so beautifully melodically and mixes the two together. Who would have thought that AGT audiences would roar for metal screams!

Nene's voice is insanely versatile. The way she gives you a little growl a little nasal draws you in. Every time I watch her I find myself leaning in. As for better singer or guitarist well, she tunes her guitar to her voice and rearranges songs to maximize the impact of both so yeah, total package.

I truly can't get the image of Nene out of my head. I’ve been following her every day—and watching her performances over and over again—ever since the "Zombie" show. She is a genius with immense, captivating charm.

Complete package for me but I do really enjoy NeNe on the guitar. She seems to be really sweet and humble also.

She is amazing. Even though English is her foreign language, she sings English songs so well that native speakers all over the world praise her. On top of that, she also sings in Mandarin and Cantonese.

Please consider doing reactions other than just her performances on the AGT stage, because she is not only an exceptionally talented guitar player and rock singer, but she also plays the bass, piano, and drums, and excels at singing other musical genres as well. In addition, she is skilled at drawing, plays checkers well, and has stellar academic grades. It is no exaggeration to call her a teenage prodigy. Above all, she is adorable, humble, friendly, approachable, down-to-earth, and comes across as a totally natural and authentic girl-next-door.
