/EIN News/ -- TORONTO, April 01, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
Key moments from tonight’s episode of Canada’s Got Talent, include:
- MAHIRO (Fukuoka, Japan) had Shania and Howie dancing in their seats with an intriguing performance of his original track, “Sausage Song”.
- 75-year-old singer, VALERIE BOYLE (Toronto, ON), won the judges’ hearts and a standing ovation with her humour, charm, and moving performance of “Send In The Clowns” by Stephen Sondheim. Valerie vowed to donate any prize winnings to Community Living, a local non-profit that has supported her son and others who have intellectual disabilities.
- Dance troupe 902 CREW (Charlottetown, PEI) lit up the stage with an electrifying performance, wowing both the judges and the audience with their unstoppable energy.
- 69-year-old comedian HOWIE MANDEL (Toronto, ON), shocked the CGT audience and his fellow judges with a captivating performance of a judge gone wild, in a wildly successful April Fool’s Day prank. Howie critiqued the comedy set of a local actor, 10-year-old Remy Smith, who played an aspiring stand-up comedian and Howie superfan.
- Canada’s Got Talent alumni CARSON & TAYLOR (Sarnia, ON) pulled off a mind-blowing trick featuring a surprise guest, astronaut and Sarnia-native Chris Hadfield, that left the judges and audience in absolute shock.
- Shania Twain hit her Golden Buzzer for singer JACOB LEWIS (Butlerville, NL), who performed a mesmerizing cover of “Bed of Roses” by Bon Jovi that also earned him a standing ovation.
Rogers is once again providing the winner of Canada’s Got Talent with a life-changing prize of $1M (plus $50 from Howie Mandel) – the biggest cash prize in Canadian television history, plus financial advice from CIBC.
