Here's my prediction for the 10 acts making it into the finals Week One of the Semis: 1. Grace 2. Jon Dorenbos 3. Tape Face 4. Laura Bretan (Dunkin' Save) 5. Blake Vogt (Judges' Choice over Sal Valentinetti by 3-1 vote) Hara is the wildcard I really don't see any other act contending for the top 5. Deadly Games is a one trick pony that has had to be saved by the judges already. Edgar is boring. Lori Mae Hernandez is too political. Musicality is just not that good. Hara might be a spoiler, though. Week 2 of the semifinals is a little harder to predict, but here goes: 1. Brian Justin Crum 2. Calysta Bevier 3. The Clairvoyants 4. Kadan Bart Rockett (Dunkin' Save) 5. Viktor Kee vs. Jayna Brown for Judges' Choice (I don't know who wins, but I'm rooting for Jayna) I wouldn't be surprised to see Malevo in contention for a spot in the finals, but I don't see any other act from this round coming close. Kadie Lynn Roberson has already finished in the bottom 3 and had to be saved by the judges once before, as has Linkin Bridge. Sofie Dossi and Steven Brundage would need to do something different this time to have any chance at all.
