Angelina Jordan became a viral sensation when she auditioned for the 2014 season of Norway’s Got Talent, going on to win that competition at age 8, singing George Gershwin’s “Summertime.”
Angelina was born in Oslo, Norway, and began listening to classic American jazz artists when she was a very young child thanks to the influence of her grandmother. At five years old she discovered Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, and Louis Armstrong by combing jazz playlists on YouTube.
In January of 2020, Angelina appeared on the second season of America’s Got Talent: The Champions when she was 13 years old. Prior to her performance, Angelina told judge Heidi Klum that she had waited 10 years to sing for Simon Cowell. Even though Angelina did not win America’s Got Talent, it looks like she is well on her way to a successful music career.
Angelina is now 17 and has recently released a new original song. With tints of Amy Winehouse and Adele, “Love Don’t Let Me Go” shows off her powerful, husky voice and is new this week on RadiJohan.
