    Helen , a full-time mom to Amari , lives in San Diego, Calif. where she practices the art of foot juggling. The former gymnast from Ethiopia won a scholarship to China to study for two years and it was there she learned the art of foot juggling.

    She’s hoping that America’s Got Talent will make it possible for her to get a residency in Las Vegas so Amari can attend school while Helen goes to work.

    AGT judges Simon Cowell , Heidi Klum , Howie Mandel and Sofia Vergara aren’t expecting much, but Helen surprises them with her performance.

    “[I thought] at the beginning, she’s going to be dull,” Sofia admitted. “No, this was fun. We were all super excited. I could have kept watching what you were doing. You could have juggled for me for a whole hour, and I would have been super happy. I think people are going to love you. Congratulations, Helen.”

    Heidi agreed, saying, “It’s incredible. We have not seen anything like this before quite like the way you do it. Imagine all the crazy things that you could be juggling in the next round.”

    Then Simon piped up with an idea based on what Heidi said about crazy things. “Pizza. I really mean it because people love pizza. A giant pizza.”

    Helen went along with it, telling Simon, “You build it, I juggle it.”

    Then it was Howie’s turn to weigh in. He said, “We love seeing things we haven’t seen before. You have incredible showmanship and strength and balance. I think your career is about to take off. This is amazing. I love that you’re here.”

    Simon pointed out, “What I love about the show this year is that we’re seeing acts, I’ve genuinely never seen before and I thought I’d seen it all.”

    Helen took that to heart, saying, “That means a lot because it’s been hard. I’m a full-time mom, so it means a lot that you guys like it.”

    Simon added, “When I see people like you and I see your daughter and how much this means to you, it’s the best feeling in the world.”

    Needless to say, Helen got four yeses.

    America’s Got Talent airs Tuesday nights at 8 p.m. ET/PT on NBC. Streams next day on Peacock.
