RL Bell, a 50-year-old massage therapist from Houston, Texas, introduced himself to the judges of\u00a0America\u2019s Got Talent<\/i>\u00a0with an energetic and confident demeanor. \u00a0Before singing, he engaged in a humorous and flirtatious exchange, bragging about his physique as an\u00a0ex-bodybuilder<\/b>\u00a0. He proudly mentioned that women often wanted to feel his biceps, even while he was shopping, setting a flamboyant tone for his performance .<\/p>\n He chose to perform the classic soul song,\u00a0\u201cMe and Mrs. Jones,\u201d<\/b>\u00a0telling the judges he was going to sing for the ladies and showcase his R&B style . He revealed a playful story about his day job: clients would ask him to sing while he massaged them, but because it was hard to focus on both tasks, he started playing a CD of his own music instead .<\/p>\n RL Bell\u2019s performance began with a dramatic flair and powerful vocals . He sang with a raw, soulful voice, but he quickly amped up the\u00a0showmanship<\/b>, dramatically removing his hat and adding enthusiastic ad-libs and dramatic gestures .\u00a0The performance was energetic and loud, filled with the kind of over-the-top theatrics he had promised.<\/p>\n The judges had a highly divided response to the act. Heidi Klum was the most positive, admitting that the performance was very entertaining and that he had a \u201cgreat voice\u201d . She also said she actually\u00a0liked the entire showmanship<\/b>\u00a0and felt he had a chance in the competition.<\/p>\n Conversely, the male judges were more critical of his excessive theatrics. Howie Mandel compared the performance to \u201ca whole bag of sugar\u201d because it was too\u00a0corny<\/b>\u00a0and felt it detracted from his voice . Howard Stern agreed with the criticism, saying RL Bell took away from his voice by behaving like a child of \u201cRick James, Sammy Davis Jr., and Hulk Hogan\u201d .<\/p>\n Despite the strong disagreement on his approach, the outcome was favorable for RL Bell. After receiving a \u201cyes\u201d from Heidi, both Howie and Simon Cowell took a chance on his potential. Simon ultimately gave him a \u201cyes,\u201d stating that based purely on the audition, it would have been a \u201cmillion percent no,\u201d but based on where he thought RL Bell \u201ccould go,\u201d he was willing to take a shot .<\/p>\n Video Link:<\/b>\u00a0RL Bell cantando Me And Mrs Jones \u2013 Sarah Jane Morr<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
