Michael made history as the season 5 winner. During the AGT finals, he revealed that his girlfriend of nearly three years, Lucie, was the inspiration for his performance of Michael Bolton’s When a Man Loves a Woman.
He won the $1 million AGT first prize, which helped to build his grandparents a new house. During Vegas week, his performance was criticized by Piers Morgan for being over 90 seconds and could have got him disqualified.
Michael performed You Can Leave Your Hat On during the semifinals while recovering from a dehydration-related illness. Michael later went on America’s Got Talent: The Champions in 2020, but was eliminated before the final.
Then a judge, Sharon Osbourne revealed that her husband Ozzy was rooting for him. He is now worth $1 million, Celebrity Net Worth reports, and still sings for a living today. He was the headliner of the AGT tour shows!
Health news on the AGT singer
Michael is currently sedated in the hospital amid health struggles. His wife revealed on Instagram that she “wants to respect his privacy and request not to disclose anything,” but added that he has been “struggling with health a lot.”
She said that he had been “lacking energy” while visiting doctors, who could not figure out what his illness is. Lucie added that he was “looking increasingly sickly” and “all of a sudden, could barely walk or lift his head.”
Lucie rushed him to the ER, where he “started talking gibberish due to toxins going to his brain,” where it was discovered that his blood pressure was “skyrocketing” while Michael felt “really agitated.”
Michael’s wife has said doctors put him on a ventilator, which he has been removed from as of June 5. He is now breathing on his own and “doing good,” while doctors isolate individual organs and investigate his health.
