Backstage at America’s Got Talent, Darci Lynne couldn’t hide her nerves, but it was Edna who stole the spotlight with a hilarious crush on Simon Cowell. With her sassy puppet in tow, Darci stepped off the Dolby stage and into a funny, heartwarming interview where the line between performer and puppet almost disappeared.
The performance was unforgettable, not just for the singing but also for Edna’s wild personality. Darci admitted she was nervous about bringing Edna out for the first time in front of the live audience. But she trusted her character, and Edna delivered, blushing over Simon and stealing laughs from everyone around. “I didn’t know what she would say,” Darci joked “but I didn’t see that coming!”

This fun moment transitions perfectly into one of Darci’s more emotional performances when she brought out Oscar to sing “Imagine.” It was a softer, more powerful side of her talent.
