Positive Celebrity Exclusive: Daniel Emmet talks AGT, charity, childhood and more!
Itâs AGTâs Daniel Emmet, heâs cute, heâs talented and he has a huge heart. Daniel Emmet is from Rochester, NY. Â And it has always been his passion to sing when he was 15-years-old, he moved to Las Vegas, NV and began taking music lessons, ones that would eventually lead him to his journey on Americaâs Got Talent.
Initially, PCG magazine didnât know what to expect from his audition. Afterward, our ears were beyond amazed, in the same way, the audience and judges felt.
As Emmet pursued toward his goal, it became evident he had the skills to deliver a powerful performance with his unique approach to the musical love language.
Emmet shared how music became a passion, particularly, after moving to Las Vegas.
On singing and moving to Las Vegas.
âI always enjoyed singing when I was younger, but it never really became a passion for me until I moved to Las Vegas at age 15. While in high school, I had an opportunity to perform (for the very first time outside of a school play) at a Gala for the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation. It was in front of about 800 people, and I was so unprepared for how emotional that moment would be. I learned then and there just how powerful music can be, and how as a performer you have a chance to lift peopleâs spirits and take them out of their day-to-day life for the time that youâre entertaining them. Once I understood that, I knew I wanted to make music for the rest of my life.â
Equally as important, Emmet is a multi-lingual vocalist, in fact, did you guys know that Daniel knows six languages?
Of course, we wanted to know what influenced him to learn such a variety of spoken language.
On Falling in love with different languages of music:
âI really fell in love with singing in different languages in college. I studied music at Chapman University, and I was very fortunate to have great professors and resources there to learn to sing in the different languages. I would have to say my favorite performance on AGT this far has been âI Donât Want To Miss A Thingâ because it combined my love of singing in a foreign language, and it was a chance to really do something unexpected for a classical singer. I was able to combine my love of classical music and my love of rock ânâ roll into one song! Plus there was actual fire on stage, and thatâs just way too cool.â
Indeed, he is pure talent, the whole package.
I mean, his wide range of musical expression crosses far across the genre spectrum, including Opera and he learns quickly, in fact, Simon gave him a song to learn and he only had one hour.
PCG magazine wanted to know more about that hour and how it felt have that experience on Americaâs Got Talent.
On how it felt to experience learning a song in one hour.
âWell, it was absolutely an adrenaline-junkie worthy hour! I think that because there was a time constraint, I almost didnât have time to be nervous, I just knew I had to learn it, I had to get it done, and through sheer adrenaline and determination it came together, and while terrifying, it was a moment Iâll never forget.â
Inspiring, we canât imagine how intense that moment was for Daniel. But he nailed it and literally blew the judges and audience right off the stage. It was such a powerful performance, especially, taking into account he only had 1-hour to learn the new song.
The most incredible feeling in the world is knowing that you âmade it,â to your next destination in your journey. After all, itâs an emotion youâll never forget and we asked how it felt to see himself on television for the first time.
On how it was to watch himself on TV.
He shared how âsurreal,â the whole time he watched himself on TV.
âIt felt so surreal, it was an out-of-body experience for me, and I can say with certainty that all of the emotions from the audition came rushing back as I watched myself on TV for the first time. It was such a crazy moment for me, I couldnât believe it was really happening!â
Afterward, it was time to be judged, yet, once again he shocked the audience, judges and got through to the next act. Emmet opened up about his audition and hearing what the judges had to say after his performance.
On how he felt right before his audition.
âNervous of course, but even more excited than nervous!â
On how it felt to watch his audition on Americaâs Got Talent.

Most importantly, Daniel Emmet opened up about what heâs learned throughout his AGT journey.
âOne significant thing Iâve learned about myself is that you can always find more to give. It doesnât matter how hard you work on a song or a performance, you can always find a way to make it more impactful, and I love that I get to learn something every day about how to improve in this business.â
Emmet also shared how he enjoys helping charitable causes, and works with a couple where he lives in Las Vegas.On charities, he loves and supports.
âYes, I am proud and humbled to say I have been working with the Nevada Childhood Cancer Foundation and Sepsis Alliance since I was in high school. Both of these charities have a special place in my heart!â

Thatâs how artists grow thatâs why his journey is valuable.

âAdele. She is such a tremendous artist. Her songwriting and her performance are stunning, moving, emotional, and her personality and heart come through the microphone every time she sings. I would be able to learn so much from her.â
 I could see âDaniel Emmet and Adele,â on tour on a big sponsor sign (haha). These two would make quite the duo on tour, donât you think?On his favorite food and restaurants.Finally, we knew Daniel could sing, we learned about his journey and now was time to learn a little about his personality and asked what his favorite restaurant is to eat a fancy dinner?âÂ

On childhood memories.Childhood is the one thing that will always be with us as we grow older, and we asked about his favorite childhood memory.
âEspecially now that I live in a desert, something Iâll always cherish are my memories of cutting down Christmas trees with my family when I was younger. Itâs simple, but its special, and not everyone lives in a place where you can do that.âOn something unique to his family.And he even shared a little something unique to his family.âIt may not be unique, but my Grandma makes the worldâs best meatballs, and she taught me how to make them, so thatâs a recipe thatâs really special to me.â
