'America's Got Talent' Deaf Singer Mandy Harvey

Deaf singer, Mandy Harvey inspires America's Got Talent judges and earns Golden Buzzer.

LOS ANGELES, California -- America's Got Talent 2017, Mandy Harvey, Deaf singer follows her dreams and earns a Golden Buzzer from Simon Cowell with her original song "Try." The original video clip is already going viral in Deaf and Hard of Hearing community across the country and globe.

To activate this feature, press the "CC" button.

In the clip, which aired on Tuesday night’s episode of the show, Mandy Harvey, a contestant, spoke through a sign language interpreter to one of the show’s judges, Simon Cowell, and described becoming Deaf in her late teens because of complications from a health issue.

To activate this feature, press the "CC" button.

“After I lost my hearing, I gave up,” she said. “But I want to do more with my life than just give up.” She explained that after a period of not performing, she learned how to sing again by using tools such as “visual tuners”, and added that she performs without wearing shoes so she can feel a song’s beat through floor vibrations.

To activate this feature, press the "CC" button.

She then broke into a song that she wrote, “Try.” The judges and some audience members appeared visibly shocked by her lucid notes; some could be seen wiping away tears. At the end of the clip, Mr. Cowell hit a golden buzzer, sending Ms. Harvey to the show’s next round. Music swelled as Mr. Cowell, known for his grumpy demeanor, joined Ms. Harvey onstage to tell her that her performance “was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen and heard.”

The clip gained traction online after it aired, and was trending on YouTube on Thursday, where commenters showered Ms. Harvey with accolades. On Twitter, some users predicted her as the winner of the show. Celebrities including Tyra Banks chimed in:

Hey @MandyHarvey! You’ve got the world talking, and believing that yes, you can do anything! See you at the live shows, lady! #AGT --Tyra Banks (@tyrabanks) June 7, 2017.

To activate this feature, press the "CC" button.

Though the show may well make Ms. Harvey famous, it isn’t the first outlet to discover her talent. NBC Nightly News profiled the singer, who has released several albums, in 2015, as did the BBC, this spring. And she has performed in prestigious venues including the Kennedy Center.

“I sing to encourage other people; that’s what makes me happy,” she told the BBC in its feature on her. “My passion, the whole reason why I sing, is so that I can say, ‘Hey, this is what I’ve done; I really hope that I can encourage you to do the same.’”

25 Things You Don’t Know About Nyle DiMarco

Deaf News: Dancing With the Stars' Nyle DiMarco: 25 Things You Don’t Know About Me - I Get Mistaken for Bradley Cooper.

LOS ANGELES -- No, that isn't Nyle DiMarco sharing the screen with Jennifer Lawrence in film after film. But the Dancing with the Stars season 22 standout has indeed been mistaken for fellow hunk Bradley Cooper, as he tells Us Weekly exclusively in 25 Things You Don’t Know About Me.

Among other revelations from the America's Next Top Model cycle 22 winner, are that he downs a surprising beverage before working out (so that's the secret to his incredible physique!) and that he can't get enough of a certain John Travolta film.

The Deaf model is certainly the one that judges and viewers alike want on the ABC competition series. He landed at the top of the DWTS leaderboard last week with a 37 out of 40 for his waltz with new partner Sharna Burgess, including the first perfect 10 of the season.

Check out the full list below for more from Nyle DiMarco:

1. I drink double espresso before I go to the gym.

2. My grandparents have been living with us since my birth.

3. We changed our last name from Thompson to DiMarco (our mother's maiden name). We have a strong family bond.

4. I love to cook breakfast.

5. I am a morning person.

6. I do not like fancy or chain restaurants. I live for local spots.

7. I am the fourth generation of being Deaf. In my family, we have over 25 Deaf members.

8. I have a twin brother, and he has orange hair, freckles and is fair-skinned.

9. I am a sucker for animated movies.

10. I'm sensitive.

11. I can spend all day at the beach.

12. I love to bike.

13. I have been to more than 30 countries in the world.

14. I have sailed the entire East Coast of the U.S.

15. I traveled alone around the world for almost three months.

16. I have a degree in math.

17. I have my own foundation, Nyle DiMarco Foundation, and it focuses on bettering Deaf youths' lives.

18. I can do a backflip.

19. People say I look like Bradley Cooper, and one time I was even mistaken as him.

20. I "borrowed" my mom's car when I was 13 to sneak out to meet up with a friend.

21. I'm obsessed with the movie Grease.

22. I still play Nintendo 64.

23. I love cannoli.

24. My two brothers and I all have the same Italian tattoo on our bottom-right back. We got it on the same day.

25. I'm stubborn.

'DWTS' Contestant Nyle DiMarco Hospitalized

'Dancing with the Stars' contestant Nyle DiMarco goes to hospital, gets stitches after rehearsal mishap.

LOS ANGELES -- Dancing With the Stars season 22 contestant Nyle DiMarco had to get stitches above his eye after a he was hit in the face during a rehearsal.

Video shows Nyle and his partner Peta Murgatroyd beginning to dance when she whirled around and accidentally plopped him in the face with her elbow.

The Deaf model takes the hit in stride, smiling while touching his eye.

Things had been going so much better for Peta, who marveled at the Deaf model when he took off his shirt to rehearse with her.

"Yes!" the dance pro said about him disrobing. "I'm totally fine with this."

Moments later, things were a bit bloodier.

"Oh, my God," Maksim Chmerkovskiy's fiance said as her dance partner ran to look at the wound in the mirror. "Are you okay? I'm so sorry. I have never hit anyone that badly in my whole life."

Nyle said, "I think I might need stitches."

Later, cameras showed Nyle outside of the hospital, with his eyebrow stitched together.

Via American Sign Language and through an interpreter, Nyle said, "So I just left the hospital. I had to get four stitches on my left eyebrow. I definitely realized today that dancing is definitely a full-contact sport and I like it!"

Hopefully the dance duo will have better luck on the dance floor. Peta knows a thing or two about dominating the dance floor, as she took home the Mirrorball Trophy with Donald Driver in season 14.

Nyle, too, knows about winning, as he won "America's Next Top Model" in it's 22nd cycle.

"It truly did take a toll on me mentally," he told Us Weekly after winning. "I even cringe when I watch myself on ANTM being all alone and sometimes brainwashed from 'only talking to myself.'"

He did find a silver lining in being Deaf during his ANTM stint.

"The only positive thing out of it is that I wasn't able to hear all the drama!" he said. "I'm relieved. Also, with the lack of communication, It has helped me to stay focused and think about how I can improve myself as a model."

Yeah, he's real. @NyleDiMarco feels the music like no other! https://t.co/3Bzd4INkoX

ET News: 'DWTS' Nyle DiMarco & Peta Murgatroyd

WATCH: 'DWTS' Peta Murgatroyd talks overcoming challenges with partner Nyle DiMarco: 'I've never trained with a Deaf person before'

LOS ANGELES -- Entertainment Tonight spoke with both the dancing pro and her Dancing with the Stars partner at the 2016 Kids' Choice Awards on Saturday, where Peta Murgatroyd admitted that working with Nyle DiMarco is a very different experience for her.

"I've never trained with a Deaf person before, so it's a whole new ball game for me," she said. "Being a teacher, I have to really find out different teaching methods to be able to overcome this, and so far we're going really well."

One person who doesn't seem nervous at all is the America's Next Top Model winner. In fact, DiMarco is excited about how quickly he's learning to dance.

"Actually, my dancing feet are pretty good," he told ET via his interpreter on the orange carpet. "I'm pretty surprised and pretty impressed, because I've never danced before. I also have a great teacher!"

"It's not exactly what I expected," the 26-year-old model added. "I thought that I would struggle a lot and it would be frustrating, but actually, it's going really well."

The dancing duo revealed that they will have to cha cha "straight out of the gate," and the ballroom pro says their take on it is "fast, sexy, fun, high energy!"

ET also caught up with the pair on Wednesday at Planet Hollywood in New York City, where DiMarco revealed Murgatroyd has already helped him boost his confidence on the dance floor.

"The first day that we met, right before she came in, of course I've never danced ever. So that's what I was nervous about," he shared. "I didn't want to look bad on the first day of rehearsals. Now I'm not nervous at all. All thanks to her."

Murgatroyd echoed his statements, praising DiMarco for his hard work and dedication in rehearsals.

"He's doing amazingly well. Part [of that] is just his amazing work ethic," she gushed. "He literally doesn't sit down. Usually people will sit down every five minutes, but he works constantly throughout the four hours that we have."

"He's just so visually aware," she added. "Probably doubly as visually aware as anyone else because he doesn't have hearing. He picks up the steps very quickly, and its very surprising. At first I was really nervous, too. I didn't know how it was going to go. I wanted to be clear, I wanted to make sure that I could be the best teacher possible."

If the pair does win season 22, it will be the second time Murgatroyd has won DWTS. She and NFL star Donald Driver took home the mirror ball trophy during season 14.

DiMarco is joined in the competition by an all-star cast that includes Jodie Sweetin, Mischa Barton, Ginger Zee and Super Bowl 50 MVP, Von Miller.

Miller is paired with pro Witney Carson, who ET also caught up with at the KCAs. The newylwed dished on how the NFL pro was shaping up in the ballroom.

"He's picking up things so quick. He's great on choreography. He's an amazing student," she gushed. "I love that because I get to boss a big football player around... Read more on ET.

Nyle DiMarco 'Dancing With The Stars' Recap

WATCH [CC] - A contestant won't be able to hear music on 'Dancing with the Stars' on the ABC TV series recap.

LOS ANGELES -- Nyle DiMarco's Dancing with the Stars partner Peta Murgatroyd is learning American Sign Language, perhaps you know Nyle DiMarco. He's the latest winner of "America's Next Top Model," an actor and Deaf advocate. Now, Nyle is breaking more barriers.

Aside from making American Sign Language education steamier, he'll be the first fully Deaf male contestant on "Dancing With The Stars." DWTS season 22 debuts Monday, March 21 at 8 p.m. on ABC.

"I haven't danced at all growing up. So, we'll see what happens," DiMarco signed.

"How do you choreograph when he can't hear the music?" George Stephanopoulos asked.

Yeah, he's real. @NyleDiMarco feels the music like no other! https://t.co/3Bzd4INkoX

"Honestly, it's more visual. It's more of a challenge for me this season, but it's a great one," Peta Murgatroyd answered. Good thing DiMarco is no stranger to challenges.

"Becoming the spokesperson for the Deaf community, and they need me. And it's a burden sometimes, but I'm willing to take that burden and change the world's perspective on Deaf people," DiMarco said.

Nyle DiMarco Is Joining 'Dancing With The Stars'

America's Next Top Model winner Nyle DiMarco is joining 'Dancing with the Stars' will be on March 21 at 8pm on ABC.

LOS ANGELES -- America's Next Top Model winner Nyle DiMarco is trading his smize for dancing shoes: the 26-year-old model/actor/Deaf activist will compete on season 22 of Dancing With the Stars, a source tells E! News exclusively.

Sources confirm that the most recent champion of Tyra Banks' modeling competition is heading to the DWTS ballroom, where he'll be joining rumored fellow cast member Jodie Sweetin on the series which our insiders have also confirmed, and will be the second-ever Deaf contestant on the show.

Oscar-winning actress Marlee Matlin competed on the series in 2008, coming in seventh place with partner Fabian Sanchez during the ABC reality hit's sixth season. Figure skater Kristi Yamaguchi eventually took home the Mirrorball Trophy that year.

The new cast will dance in the footsteps of 17-year-old Bindi Irwin, who took home the trophy with six-time champion Derek Hough, beating out Backstreet Boy Nick Carter, soldier Alek Skarlatos and Grease Live star Carlos PenaVega.

ABC declined to comment on the casting report, but the official cast announcement will be made on Good Morning America on March 8, ahead of season 22's March 21 premiere.

One certainty for next season: We won't be seeing Julianne Hough anymore. The pro-turned-judge is stepping away from the series after two years at the judges' table, she confirmed on Feb. 17, but there's good news too: Len Goodman, who left for a season to spend time with his newborn grandson (and continue judging on the original British series, Strictly Come Dancing), is coming back.

ANTM Cycle 22 Finale, Winner Is... Nyle DiMarco !

WATCH [CC] - Deaf News: Tyra Banks Names Nyle DiMarco the Final Winner of 'America’s Next Top Model'.

LOS ANGELES -- Entertainment Tonight: The judges have deliberated, and America's next top model is… Nyle DiMarco!

The 26-year-old model becomes the second male winner of the series - following Keith Carlos, who won cycle 21 - and the only Deaf contestant to compete on the reality competition show. He’s also the final model to land on top after creator and host Tyra Banks announced the series’ cancellation midway through the cycle.

.@NyleDiMarco U R The Last America's Next Top Model! I can't wait 2 C the legacy U build Make me PROUD! 💋 #ANTM pic.twitter.com/Fxwc2sC0jD

— Tyra Banks (@tyrabanks) December 5, 2015

From the beginning of cycle 22, the judges - Banks, Kelly Cutrone, and J. Alexander -- and other contestants made a big deal about his hearing, but being Deaf didn’t seem to be a disadvantage. In fact, DiMarco said it helped him in the competition.

I am.... AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL! & THE LAST WINNER & WHO HAPPENS TO BE DEAF! Thank you @tyra and #ANTM for giving me voice!!!

“The biggest advantage of me being Deaf is that my language requires me to move my body,” DiMarco told Entertainment Tonight in September, “so it's easy for me to show movement in my body and brings the best of me in photographs.”

DiMarco quickly became a fan favorite thanks to his washboard abs, piercing blue eyes and charming persona. But he also delivered fierce photos each week, winning two elimination challenges and only landing in the bottom two once.

While the competition itself may be over, DiMarco’s career is just beginning. The budding model told Entertainment Tonight that he hopes to become the next male supermodel and to create an equal space for men in the modeling world.

“America's Next Top Model changed my life because I am more aware of the modeling world and I have a great network now,” he said of the experience, adding: “I have even more fans than I did before.”

6 'ANTM' contestants who actually went on to become famous... Oh, we bet he does!

You can check out more about DiMarco at ET’s exclusive interview with him. Check back next week when we sit down with the big winner to catch up on everything that’s been going on since the competition aired.
