Linkin Park absolutely brought the house down at the America’s Got Talent finale alongside Nene Royal, the teen sensation who just became the show’s new champion!
The 16-year-old Thai guitarist and singing prodigy joined the band to perform the hit single “The Emptiness Machine”. Nene proved she is a true rock star in the making, taking the opening verse and trading powerful, gritty vocals with Emily Armstrong, while Mike Shinoda stepped aside to let her shine on center stage.
After an incredible season where she captivated everyone with covers of Muse, The Cranberries, Soundgarden, and The White Stripes, Nene earned a very well-deserved standing ovation!
