Jessica earned a well-deserved Golden Buzzer and a standing ovation from judges Simon Cowell, Sofía Vergara, Mel B, and Howie Mandel after a breathtaking performance of “Beautiful Things” by Benson Boone.

“I was actually on the very first season of America’s Got Talent,” she said.

The 29-year-old Filipino-American singer also revealed that it took her 20 years to finally pursue her long-time dream of joining the American talent show.

“Throughout the years I kind a fell out of love of music because I was really young, I was so swayed by what everybody wanted me to be, who they wanted me to be. And so, maybe it took me 20 years, but I know exactly who I am. And, I know exactly what I want. I’m excited to be back,” Sanchez shared.

Apart from her beautiful vocal performance, the singer also made a revelation regarding her life.

“I found my lane and I’m married now and I’m actually, another surprising thing is I recently found out that I’m pregnant,” she revealed.

Jessica Sanchez finished as a runner-up behind Phillip Philipps on the eleventh season of American Idol.
