As far as I know, Grace VanderWaal is still the only contestant to win by singing only original songs. I believe that two of the songs were written in between the live episodes. Since winning, she has had 2 albums debut in the top 25 on the Billboard charts, has sold out tours, had a modeling career, and has played the title role in 2 movies (playing the lead in one of them). She has a new EP (reportedly 7 songs) on the way, and has a major role in Francis Ford Coppola's new film, along with an absolutely stacked cast. This is even more impressive considering she is still only 18 years old!

Oh Yes, definitely, the Instant Grace Vanderwaal finished her song, AGT struck gold and I started to respect this show. Remember she didn't have any drama going on in her life then. This was pure talent and it hit me hard like a lightning bolt. I was almost paralyzed and I had runaway tears because all that was real and I could feel it. You could see through her eyes panning in disbelief when she realized the magnitude of what had just happened.

Nightbird is the one who inspired Mayyas to make audition on AGT this year. Rip beautiful Jane

I didn’t realize how hard Terry’s job actually was until I saw this video

Darci is so good definitely one of the best acts on agt that’s the reason she got the highest votes in agt history

I still can't describe the feeling I get every single time I hear Grace's audition song, it just makes me feel a kind of way

Grace Vanderwaal and Darci Lynne 👏🏼 Both were awesome. I watched AGT only for them 😂

It was adorable when they said “i feel so lucky to have been a small part of this”
