Americas Got Talent judges Julianne Hough and Gabrielle Union fangirl over 12-year-old Luke Islam during semi-final

12-year-old Luke Islam just won himself a bunch of fangirls after wowing during the latest Americas Got Talent semi-final.

The competition is really heating up as the grand final nears and one act that left the judging panel more than impressed on Tuesday night was singer Luke.

He put on a stunning performance of Never Enough from The Greatest Showman and landed himself a standing ovation that left Julianne Hough tearing up.

She told Luke: I feel like a proud mumma, right now, while urging viewers at home to vote for him.

His jaw-dropping powerhouse vocals saw the 12-year-old (yep, we said 12) win praise from fellow judge Gabrielle Union too, as she told Luke: You know how special I think you are.

I think the world agrees with all of us, she said. You are a world class talent.

Tuesday night saw a whole new host of acts take to the stage in the hope of making it through to the shows final, while Queen Latifah joined the judging panel as a guest judge.

Lukes impressive performance came after fellow singer Kodi Lee floored Simon Cowell with his moving performance in the first semi-final heat last week.

The blind and autistic 22-year-old left the audience stunned with a soul-wrenching rendition of Calum Scotts You Are The Reason.

Your story is unbelievable. But now lets take it back to your talent. Every time you come on, particularly tonight, you put your twist on a song that makes you, in my opinion, one of the most special, talented contestants, Simon said.

The final of Americas Got Talent airs in the US on 17 and 18 September and streams on Netflix in the UK
