CHICKEN CATCHER wins America's Got Talent - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

It seems rather anticlimactic compared to Britain's Got Talent (with Susan Boyle coming in second), but season 4 of "America's Got Talent" is over. Your winner: Kevin Skinner.

You read that correctly. Kevin Skinner, the 35-year-old country singer (and chicken catcher), Kevin Skinner, from Mayfield, KY, won season four of “America's Got Talent” over opera singer and cancer survivor Bárbara Padilla, 36, of Houston, TX.

Kevin Skinner now gets $1 million. He will also headline his own show on the Las Vegas strip.

An interesting twist: just before Kevin Skinner was announced as the winner, “Britain's Got Talent” runner-up Susan Boyle debuted her Rolling Stones cover song, "Wild Horses.” It was her first performance in the United States.

According to the New York Post, Boyle's appearance was actually taped Tuesday night before a specially invited audience. It wasn't live.

Here's the full list of the top 10 results:

Winner: Kevin Skinner, 35, country singer, Mayfield, KY

2. Bárbara Padilla, 36, opera singer, Houston, TX

3. Recycled Percussion, (ages 22–39) Ryan Vezina; Justin Spencer; James "Jimmy" Magoon; Todd Griffin; musical performance junkyard percussionists, Goffstown, NH

4. The Texas Tenors, Marcus Collins, 34; JC Fisher, 35; John Hagen, 44, country–classical singers, Houston, TX

5. The Voices of Glory, Michael Cole, 16; Avery Cole, 13; Nadia Cole, 9, singers, Highland, NY

6 - 10 listed alphabetically.

Lawrence Beamen, 34, bass singer, Walnut Creek, CA

Fab Five, LaChere Vawdrey, 35; Shaundalee Morgan, 33; Ayrion Myers, 31; Cambria Gibson, 28; Veva Ahlstrom, 24, dancing sister cloggers, Morgan, UT

Grandma Lee, Lee Strong, 75, performing stand-up comedienne, Jacksonville, FL

Drew Stevyns, 26, singer and guitarist, Sykesville, MD

Hairo Torres, 23, breakdancer, Grants Pass, OR

IMO Recycled Percussion shouldve won, they were the most Vegas act, and were awesome. AGT/America LOVES sob stories on here a little too much,more than AI

I think Kevin Skinner has a very good singing voice. I'm glad to see that he won.

I'm happy for Kevin, but I really wanted Recycled Percussion to win. At least it wasn't Barbara Padilla, I always fast forwarded when ever she sang. Not that she doesn't have a good voice, but I just don't like Opera at all.
