With his powerful rendition of Journey\u2019s Don\u2019t Stop Believin\u2019, Goodall won the hearts of the audience and judges alike, taking home the grand prize of $1 million (\u20ac950,000).<\/p>\n<p>Richard Goodall: From janitor to champion<br \/>\nGoodall\u2019s journey on AGT has been nothing short of inspiring. He began as a humble school janitor, singing in hallways and inspiring the children he worked with. Little did he know that his voice would one day lead him to perform alongside the band Journey during the AGT finale.<\/p>\n<p>Goodall\u2019s rise to fame is even more inspiring given his previous disappointment with The Voice. Despite his vocal talents, he didn\u2019t make it past the audition stage on the show. However, instead of letting this rejection define him, Goodall used it as fuel for his next challenge. After singing during a school graduation ceremony, TikTok was sent into a frenzy over \u201cIndiana\u2019s singing janitor\u201d. Friends and colleagues at the school urged him to try again, this time for America\u2019s Got Talent.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Janitor\u2019s performance goes viral\" width=\"790\" height=\"444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/B1yMXHX-sc0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>America\u2019s Got Talent (AGT) has crowned its latest star, and in a heartwarming twist, the winner is Richard Goodall, a 55-year-old janitor from Indiana.
