In the quarterfinals, with the help of her puppet Oscar, Darci sang The Jackson 5’s “Who’s Lovin’ You” and received a standing ovation from the judges. She received enough votes to go ahead to the next round of the competition, where she sang Aretha Franklin‘s “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman” and flirted with judge Simon Cowell through her puppet Edna Doorknocker. This performance sent her through to the finals, where she competed against 9 other acts for the winning title! In the largest vote in history of AGT, Darci was crowned the Season 12 winner!
