AGT Winner Richard Goodall Delivers Stunning National Anthem At Pacers Vs. Heat Game

Richard Goodall, Better Known As “The Singing Janitor,” Gave A Beautiful National Anthem Performance Over The Weekend

Richard Goodall rose to fame after he competed in and won Season 19 of Americans Got Talent. During the finale, he got the chance to perform his audition song, “Don’t Stop Believin’,” with Neal Schon and members of Journey.

Goodall won the hearts of Americans with his incredible voice and sweet demeanor. The singer started his AGT journey with a performance of “Don’t Stop Believin.”

During his first audition, Simon Cowell told the singer, “I think America is going to love you.” 

Cowell could not have been more correct in his assessment because Goodall went on to win the whole competition.

Also, during his first audition, Richard Goodall shared his moving story of pursuing his dreams. The 55-year-old singer had been a janitor for 23 years prior to his AGT audition. This fact gained him the name “the singing janitor.” Watch his Golden Buzzer audition below. 

Where Is He Now?

What happened to the singing janitor after his 1-million-dollar-win?

Goodall was silent on social media for a while, but after an update, it appears he and his wife are doing well.

Goodall shared a Facebook post explaining his brief absence from social media. In the post, the singer expressed his gratitude for his wife, who cared for him while he was undergoing surgery.

Goodall wrote, “I love this woman more than anyone can possibly know. Theses past 7 days have been tough on me. Wednesday afternoon I had hernia surgery still in pain! And today got all my bad teeth taken out. And still in pain. She has taken care of me without complaint. Love you too the moon and back! Rich”

Other than his post about his surgery, it seems the janitor is back at school and feeling well.

Now that life is back to normal for the impressive janitor, there have been very few singing engagements. So fans were excited to see him take center court during the Pacers vs. Heat game to show off his amazing vocals once again.

Fans in the crowd cheered in support of the singer after his a cappella National Anthem, and his followers online were extremely impressed.

“I’m from the UK & even I got chills listening to him sing your anthem! What a top guy with the most AMAZING voice!”

“Chills!!! How special!!! What a moment!!!”

“This guys story is amazing!”

“Great job Richard!!!!”

“What an amazing job Richard. You did a great job with the song. Congratulations again on everything. God bless.”

“Living the dream and you deserve everything that it brings.”
