For this week’s romantic moment, we decided to mix things up a bit. Normally, we highlight romantic moments from movies, TV shows, or books. But last week (August 21), something special happened on TV that’s worth sharing.
Our romantic moment of the week comes from America’s Got Talent, featuring a captivating performance during the Quarter Finals by Duo Transcend.
Let’s talk about Duo Transcend. This act consists of Tyce and Mary, a married couple from Salt Lake, who perform a thrilling trapeze act. Adding to the danger, Tyce has keratoconus, an eye condition that impairs his vision. Despite this, they sailed through the audition round. However, things turned intense during the Judge Cuts when Tyce accidentally dropped Mary in a risky blindfolded move, resulting in a fall. They returned for the Quarter Finals determined to redeem themselves.
Now, onto the romantic moment. This particular performance doesn’t need much explanation to convey its romance. The act was deeply romantic for several reasons. First, the performers are a real-life married couple, which makes the trust and connection between them all the more genuine, especially when Tyce is blindfolded. Second, the music and choreography added layers of romance, especially the final seconds featuring a passionate kiss and a breathtaking ending.
Instead of taking my word for it, you should watch the performance and experience it yourself. Also, if you liked the cover of Britney Spears’ “Toxic” used in their act, it’s by 2WEI. And great news—they made it through to the next round!
