A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

Saw this earlier today and have already watched three more times. Just figured we all need a little reminder to not judge someone based on their outward appearance. The entire audience and the judges are laughing (inside or outwardly) until she starts. One of the more inspiring things I have seen in a while, well worth the time to watch it :tu

Bite me. ;)

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

:confused:Did you watch it? Pretty powerful stuff and definitely more than one tear was shed by the people in attendance. :tu

I was moved by the acceptance and then accoldaes she received, I am guessing she never experienced a moment anything like that before in her life. :)

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

Absolutely, the end when she is beside herself just from having the opportunity to live out a dream she has had for so many years is amazing. She seemed genuinely stunned to find out that everyone thought she was infinitely better than she must have thought herself. Warms the heart :tu

I like watching Simon's reactions. You can really tell when he is blown away.

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

The expressions on the judges' faces said it all. :)

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

That was awesome!! Thanks for the link Adam:tu

Guess I'll have to rethink my 'big dumb jock theory" after seeing that:r:r:r

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

I had the same reaction. Call me Poopypants McGee but I wasn't blown away by her performance - but definitely by the moment that she experienced and the crowd going nuts for her. That's pretty darn cool to watch :tu.

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

That was the "it" for me as well, Mikey. :)

It shows that dreams can come true if you belive in yourself:tu

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

Goosebumps. Wow.

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

Did I miss something? All I saw was the blonde judge.

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

Thanks for the video Adam :tu

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

And Simon is still an arrogant D!ck!:hn:hn

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

He about backpeddled off his chair.

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

I am covered in goosebumps with the most happy smile I have had in a while.

In a wave of economic bad news, piracy on the high seas, and abducted children. This was a ray of sunshine in my day hell my month. Absolutely outstanding.

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

Thanks for the link Adam. You sure as hell have the right name for this thread.

Enough to make an old guys eyes water. Not mine mind you cuz I'm not old, but if I was. :)

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover

It reminded me of the emotions I felt watching the movie Lucas condensed into 7 minutes.

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

Maybe after my nap, that way I won't say somethng mean.

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

I'm with you Tom. Sarah is a beautiful soul as evidenced by her humility and authenticity at everyone's reaction. And I enjoyed her voice as well.

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

Thank you for making my day. That was absolutely inspiring.:tu

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover

Nice:tu

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

Just watched this for the umpteenth time.

I think Simon is the only one in the place that did not stand. Why is that not surprising.

The joy in her face as she blows a kiss to the crowd is very heartwarming to say the least.

Re: A reason to never judge a book by its cover
 

same effect on me, just as when Paul Potts did the same last year.
