‘America’s Got Talent’ favorite Grace VanderWaal finds surprising fan in Justin Bieber

Grace -America’s Got Talent” contestant Grace VanderWaal was already basking in the status of being the prohibitive favorite at the moment to win; now, she’s getting the support of one of the most influential celebrities to go along with it.

If you look below, you can see Grace’s endorsement on Instagram by none other than Justin Bieber. Grace has previously said that Katy Perry is one of her favorite artists, and Simon Cowell compared her to Taylor Swift. Regardless of any comparison, this is a huge endorsement that, if nothing else, could buoy her to a tremendous amount of success after the show. All you have to do is remember here for a moment that this is what really matters for her career-wise more so than anything else. She needs to have people in her corner who are ready and willing to root for her using any means necessary after the fact.

Regardless of what happens this season, it feels like Grace is going to be fine. Just remember for a minute here that she has a super-popular audition online, and given that she is so young and also writes her own songs, there will probably be a laundry list of people lining up for her to sign with after the fact. We shall see.

For now, some new episodes of the show are going to continue airing on NBC Tuesday nights. Stay tuned for further updates!
