'America got it wrong' says Piers Morgan as 'outrageous' male pole dancer reaches semi final of America's Got Talent

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Overjoyed: Pole dancer Steven Retchless is thrilled to beat Attack Dance Crew and Geechy Guy to get through to the semi finals

With his striking white glittery outfit and matching hotpants, male pole dancer Steve Retchless certainly stuck in the minds of the public with his performance on America's Got Talent.

The dancer was thrilled when he heard he had beaten comic Geechy Guy and troupe Attack Dance Crew to a place in the semi-finals on tonight's show, much to the disappointment of judge Piers Morgan.

'I think America got it wrong,' said the British host, who last night buzzed out Retchless as he performed his gymnastic routine.


Decision time: The American public liked pole dancer Steven over dance troupe Attack Dance Crew and comedian Geechy Guy


'There’s a reason there are no male pole-dancing clubs in America,' Piers had told him last night, although his fellow judges Sharon Osbourne and Howie Mandel were much more impressed.

'Just be yourself' Sharon told him, after Howie had expressed some concern over whether Retchless can 'appeal to middle America' in the semi finals.

'It feels amazing,' said Retchless. 'I'm very happy that I can keep inspiring people.'


Striking: Retchless performed his eye catching act last night but was buzzed out by Piers



No fan: Piers Morgan said the public had got it wrong when they voted though Retchless


Retchless joined three other acts which the judges put through to the semi finals, after last night's less than impressive contest.

Motorcycle stunt team Smage Bros, who impressed all three judges with their daredevil routine scraped through against illusionist act Landon Swank, who seemed to walk through a mirror without breaking it.

Acknowledging it was a difficult choice, Piers ended up voting for Landon, which left Howie and Sharon putting the bikers from Wisconsin through to the next round.


High five: The daredevil stunt bike team Smage Bros are delighted to get through to the next round on tonight's America's Got Talent


Delighted: The trio were delighted when Howeie Mandel put them through over dance troupe Silhouettes


Earlier, the contest saw the dance troupe Silhouettes put through to the semi finals.

Last night, Piers had called their act, which involved manipulating shadows into U.S. landmarks, 'complete genius,' while Howie dubbed them 'unique.'

Several of the younger members of the 42-strong troupe from Denver were in tears as they were given the news that they had beaten juggler Thomas John and novelty act Rhinestone Ropers.


Celebration: Dance troupe Silhouettes celebrate after making it into the semi finals


Overcome: Two of the youngest members of the 42-strong troupe were in tears as the good news broke
Singer Daniel Joseph Baker also clearly made an impression with his rendition of Lady Gaga number Edge of Glory.


He was overjoyed to be put through to the semis, after being selected above Justin Bieber lookalike Dani Shay and singer Dylan Andre.

Sharon had called him 'a natural performer,' while Howie branded the enthusiastic Daniel 'the next Lady GuyGuy.'



Good news: Singer Daniel Joseph Baker was thrilled to be put through for his Lady Gaga number

America's Got Talent: Recap For Wednesday, July 13, 2011

America's Got Talent: Recap For Wednesday, July 13, 2011
Fearless Flores Family, Duo Aero and Snap Boogie are called to the stage first. They get a montage of their performances last night and after some words from the judges, we find out SNAP BOOGIE will be moving on to the next round!

Avril Lavigne performs her singles What The Hell and Smile. It reminds me of why I was such a big fan back in the day. Not only is she super talented, but she also was never afraid to be herself. She was just her and didn't care what anyone else thought. Love it!

The next three acts to be called to the stage are Squonk Opera, Sandou Trio Russian Mob and J. Chris Newburgh. We get clips from last night's performances and then find out that the act moving on is.....SANDOU TRIO RUSSIAN MOB! They get some sweet words from Piers and share their joy with everyone.

Dezmond Meeks, Echo of Animal Gardens and Anna Graceman are the next to find out their fate. After they are shown their acts one last time ANNA GRACEMAN finds out she is in the next round. She is the cutest thing ever! i love how sweet Howie is to her, it truly melts my heart.

Priscilla Queen of the Desert performs and they are quite interesting. Not just the performance itself, but the costuming and everything as a whole. The dancing without the costumes would just be dancing and the costumes by themselves would just be costumes but put together it is truly something special.

Miami All Stars, Those Funny Little People and the Fiddleheads are the last group to find out where they stand. They are also given a montage of last night's performances before we find out that THOSE FUNNY LITTLE PEOPLE are going home. The Fiddleheads and Miami All Stars now must convince the judges why they should stay in the competition. They each state their cases and then it is determined that the act moving on to the next round is....MIAMI ALL STARS!

Congratulations to all four acts and best of luck to all twelve in their future endeavors. Be sure to tune in next week to see the next twelve acts perform. Goodnight!

'America's Got Talent': 'Truck Drivers Aren't Supposed to Cry'

americas-got-talent-premiere-S6.jpg

The first audition from Houston isThe Rhinestone Ropers, a Wild West skill show that may not be "Vegas" exactly but is impressive nonetheless. Dan does most of the actual tricks, with Melody acting as his victim assistant. Oops, spoke too soon as Melody shoots water balloons while spinning on a giant board. Very cool. They are through, of course.



The Ropers kick off a Good Montage: Mona Lisa, twin girls who sing "Killing Me Softly" and are decidedly better than those schmuck twins from last night; Charles Peachock, who juggles in black light, which is kinda meh for me, but he's through; and The Perfect Angels, a Hooters-esque dance troupe that has Piers drooling on his tie.



Daniel Joseph Baker is up next. He compares himself to Xtina, Lady Gaga and Nicole Scherzinger. Hmm. We'll see about that. It's great that he's proud of who he is, but that doesn't mean he has any particular talent. He sits down at the keyboard and does "Bad Romance" in his own way, kinda lounge-y, kinda burlesque-y. It's fun and very good, though his operatic pronunciation on "ro-mahhhhce" is annoying. He could dirty that up a bit, but overall excellent. Good for him. He is also through.

Five advantages of trading forex market .

1. 24 Hour Market: Since the forex market is worldwide, trading is continuous as long as there is a market open somewhere in the world. Trading starts when the markets open in Australia on Sunday evening, and ends after markets close in New York on Friday.

2. High Liquidity: Liquidity is the ability of an asset to be converted into cash quickly and without any price discount. In forex this means we can move large amounts of money into and out of foreign currency with minimal price movement.

3. Low Transaction Cost: In forex, typically the cost for a transaction is built into the price. It is called the spread. The spread is the difference between the buying and selling price.

4. Leverage: Forex Brokers allow traders to trade the market using leverage. Leverage is the ability to trade more money on the market than what is actually in the trader's account. If you were to trade at 50:1 leverage, you could trade $50 on the market for every $1 that was in your account. This means you could control a trade of $50,000 using only $1000 of capital.

5. Profit Potential from Rising and Falling Prices: The forex market has no restrictions for directional trading. This means, if you think a currency pair is going to increase in value; you can buy it, or go long. Similarly, if you think it could decrease in value you can sell it, or go short.
