Back in 2017, Paige Glenn and Artyon Celestine, young dance sensation, dazzled the America’s Got Talent judges with an electrifying performance to Footloose. Paige, then just 8 years old, and Artyon, 9, showed incredible talent, especially for someone their age.
These two young dancers’ journey started at a California dance academy, where the two instantly clicked. This connection soon blossomed into a powerful partnership on stage. Paige and Artyon shared passion, which only added to their stunning performance.
Their Footloose routine, that included jumps, kicks, and flawless spins, started with Paige dancing on the judge’s table, impressing everyone in the room. Despite their undeniable talent, they failed to move on to the semi-finals, but they did receive a standing ovation from judges Heidi Klum and Mel B. Both the judges and the audience were mesmerized by their moves.
Before their famous Footloose performance, Paige and Artyon had first auditioned for the show with a dance to Barbie Girl.
While Klum, Mel B, and guest judge Seal responded positively, Simon Cowell was not impressed. Still, the dancing duo got their way to the Judge Cuts. Their next appearance was a dance routine on I’ve Had the Time of My Life.
