America’s Got Talent has seen many astonishing performances over the years, but a real-life fairy named Freckled Zelda most certainly stands out.
Dressed in royal robes adorned with the Triforce, Freckled Zelda proudly proclaimed that she was a fairy to the panel of judges. Most of whom, especially the ever-skeptical Simon Cowell, seemed very confused. Despite the initial reaction by the judges, her Zelda-inspired outfit, ocarina strapped around her chest, and unwavering confidence made Freckled Zelda stand out among the other contestants from the moment she walked on stage.
But Zelda was far from being all flash, as her performance of “Colors of the Wind” from Disney’s Pocahontas blew the judges and audience away. Her voice was beautiful and her mastery of the ocarina was nothing short of impressive. These skills won her an enthusiastic yes by all four judges and a ticket to the next round.
Before performing on the America’s Got Talent stage, Freckled Zelda, aka Rachael Wilson, got her start as a social media star on TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, and Spotify. On these channels, she posts a variety of videos ranging from music on her ocarina, memes, vlogs, and often her own original songs. As of this article, Zelda has around eight million followers on TikTok.
Freckled Zelda is a fantastic fairy, and hopefully, her talent will carry her far into the competition.
