During an audition, an 88-year-old exotic dancer\u2019s \u201cunpredictable\u201d performance impressed America\u2019s Got Talent judges and audience. Penny claimed to be America\u2019s senior burlesque dancer and was considered a national treasure.\n\n\n\n
Penny Starr Sr. was born in Palm Bay, Florida. She had appeared on the AGT stage wearing red, white, and blue feathers. \u201cI want to give America a real show, a get-up-and-go show!\u201d said the lovely senior.\n\n\n\n
Penny replied that she was a widow with six husbands when Simon asked if she was single. The media mogul inquired about the contestant\u2019s willingness to marry for the seventh time. \u201cYes,\u201d she said, \u201cbut it takes some time to break them in.\u201d\n\n\n\n
Penny began her performance with the song \u201cYou\u2019re a Grand Old Flag.\u201d All four judges were overjoyed when the older lady chose to remove her clothing one by one. Terry Crews, the emcee, threw red, white, and blue confetti all over the stage to honor the performance.\n\n\n\n
Sofia Vergara applauded the 88-year-old competitor and said, \u201cPenny, I want to be you when I grow up.\u201d Former Victoria\u2019s Secret model Heidi Klum supported Penny.\n\n\n\n
Simon was the one who was taken by the sassy senior dancer and flirted with her. But then he asked Penny a daring question that will determine her fate on AGT. \u201cWould more clothing fall off if you went forward?\u201d the media magnate challenged the participant. The eager senior said that she would gladly do so.\n\n\n\n
This is when Howie Mandel, the judge, exclaimed, \u201cI want to see more!\u201d Penny received four yeses. Despite making it to the following round, the AGT judges had to choose only 54 acts out of a total of 138. As a result, the burlesque dancer\u2019s AGT adventure comes to an end.\n\n\n\n
