‘America’s Got Talent’ Sensation Courtney Hadwin Faces Citizenship Backlash

Courtney Hadwin is a frontrunner to win “America's Got Talent” and she's only 14. Hadwin's performances have been viewed more than 200 million times on YouTube, but because she is actually not American there is backlash against her. The teenager is British and is in America on a short-term performer visa just to appear on the show. Judging by the backlash on social media, there are a lot of Americans out there who think that's wrong. "Why are there so many acts that are not American when ‘America’ is in the title?" was one comment.
