We’ll never get to know just how far Brandon Rogers could have gone with his musical talent.
But thanks to „America’s Got Talent, “ which aired Rogers‘ audition on Tuesday, one month after he was killed in a car accident, we know this: He could have really been a star. After singing Stevie Wonder’s 1995 hit „Ribbon in the Sky, “ he earned four nods from the judges — and we sense he could have gone all the way.
„At the request of his family we would like to honor his memory by sharing his audition with you, “ the show said in a statement before his audition aired.
A Virginia native, Rogers was a doctor of family medicine who had put his dreams of becoming a singer on hold to secure his medical career.
„My inspiration for becoming a doctor was kind of born out of a pretty tough experience when I was about 6 years old. I came home from school one day and I found my mom laying in a pool of blood, “ he explained ahead of his performance.
„We rushed her to the hospital; the doctors were like heroes. They saved her life and it made me want to be the doctor that I am today.“
