“The Singing Janitor” Wins Season 19 Of America’s Got Talent
America’s Got Talent judge Heidi Klum is thrilled for newly crowned winner Richard Goodall, otherwise known as “The Singing Janitor.”
Klum and Goodall share a special connection that started after he auditioned for Season 19 of AGT. The beloved middle school janitor performed an inspiring rendition of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Belivin’” and blew everyone away.
Klum showered Goodall with praise, telling him:
“Richard, Richard, Richard, you knocked me off my feet! We all had the best time with you up on that stage. I really feel something when I see you up there. This is what I’m going to do for you, because I love you.”
Then, Klum gave Goodall the biggest show of support by reaching forward to press the Golden Buzzer for him. Only a few acts have the potential to earn the Golden Buzzer during the auditions, so Klum’s gesture was a major showcase of her faith in Goodall’s talent.
Goodall continued to advance throughout the competition, charming viewers with additional covers of ’80s rock songs, such as Michael Bolton’s “How Am I Supposed To Live Without You” and Survivor’s “Eye of the Tiger.”
Eventually, “The Singing Janitor” found himself competing in the Season 19 finale. As a finalist, he got the chance to perform “Don’t Stop Belivin’” with members of Journey, bringing things full circle.

Watching America fall in love with you like I did was the highlight of my season and I can’t wait to watch you continue to shine.”
