Tuesday was another emotional night on “America's Got Talent.”
After the show, “Extra's” Terri Seymour spoke with Simon Cowell, who broke some news about 13-year-old singer Evie Clair, who sang a heart-wrenching rendition of “Yours” and lost her dad the same week from lung cancer. He revealed she may not return for the finals next week, saying, “We reached out to the family and her and said, 'It's your choice whether you want to come on the show or not.' If she doesn't, she definitely will be welcome to come on next year.”
