Behind-the-scenes America’s Got Talent tell-all book released with 60+ interviews
Tonight is the America’s Got Talent Season 8 finale as the remaining six finalists compete for the coveted one million dollar top prize and a place in AGT history — a history that has included a ventriloquist, an opera singer and a dog act. So what happened to the seven previous winners and what are they up to now? And what about all those fan-favorite contestants who didn’t win? And what really goes on behind the scenes on the show?
You can find the answer to these questions and more in a new tell-all book titled Inside AGT: The Untold Stories of America’s Got Talent. Compiled by AGT superfan Ashley Majeski (founder and editor of TheAshleysRealityRoundup.com) and New York Post vet Sean Daly, the book features interviews with more than 60 previous winners, finalists, judges and fan favorites such as Jackie Evancho, Landau Eugene Murphy Jr., Michael Grimm, Bianca Ryan, Prince Poppycock, Piers Morgan, Kevin Skinner, Neal E. Boyd, Tone The Chiefrocca, Horse “King of the Nut Shots,” and Leonid The Magnificent.
