Offtopic, but what happened to Nick? I was only following him when he was doing a reread. I'm guessing rampant alcoholism has something to do with it, but prison etc wtf?
In addition to being an alcoholic he got a coke habit, started swinging/wife swapping with another couple and neglecting his kids. Eventually several people went to the local Pastor with their concerns about his kids, Pastor went to the cops, cops raided the place and found it was a crack den-esque shithole and that Nick had an ounce of coke and some Ketamine.

what happened to nick?
-escalating alcoholism
-calls some internet locow a pedophile and gets sued for defamation
-holiday to a luxury swinger resort in jamaica (he then starts following two muscular black guys who work there on social media)
-puts on the balldo (it's like a miniature strap-on dildo that you wear on your balls)
-another swinger couple moved in and lived at his house for months
-trips to gay bars and sex shops
-hard drugs (mdma, cocaine)
-four adults doing wifeswap swinger shit while snorting loads of coke in the bedroom all day and night
-teachers and church people start noticing that his kids are wearing dirty clothes and complain about not being fed at home
-cops eventually get a search warrant for his house
-the house is a dirty crack den, cops find 26 grams of cocaine plus some ketamine
-nick, his wife, and his live-in mistress are all arrested
-charged with drug posession and child neglect
-currently out on bail

So apparently a janitor from Alabama Indiana won a golden buzzer on America's Got Talent. He even got hugged by one of the female judges. I'll bet he doesn't even have a single plight.

Yeah it's pretty cringe, but it's a perfect feel-good story. The kind Russ DREAMED of having on the show. you know he's not just seething and coping, he's in an absolute rage over this and kicking furnature, wondering how he can sue this man for stealing HIS spotlight and dream position!
I m sure we're going to see a sour grapes tweet over this, or if we're lucky something outright unhinged.

They have to play it up. It's all part of the drama that is made.
These people have to go through multiple auditions just to get on stage and that's what you often times have the backstage host talk to the contestant or they have a camera following them for a bit. They know what they're in for because they've heard these people so they have to build it up.
The only other time they do that is when they're terrible. But if they have some feel good story going on it always means they're going to be good.
At the risk of going offtopic, that janitor dude did an absolutely PERFECT Steve Perry. If he sings 'Worlds Apart' for his first full-song performance i'll geek right the fuck out. First time i've been interested in an AGT show outside of the compilations of terrible attempts in years.
Eat your heart out Russ. If you can manage to baby-bird it down, anyhow. It's small and shriveled enough.

Pardon my old person reference but it was very much a Susan Boyle moment (it even had Terry Crews making faces in the wings like Ant and Dec did). But also Richard the Janitor was way better than Susan Boyle.
(Also sorry to continue the OT but I unironically love Journey and Steve Perry and you're absolutely right. Journey needs to fire karaoke star Arnel Pineda* and hire Indiana janitor Richard Goodall instead.)
* Pineda hits the notes and phrasing slightly better but you can still tell he's Pinoy by his pronunciation. Also Richard has heart and I love that.
I don’t personally see how copying someone else’s performance is a good enough “talent” for this kind of competition. Do they have Elvis impersonators on that show as well?

Oh yes I agree. That is provided he even watches the show anymore. After his rejection and failed lawsuit I have a feeling the mere mention of AGT causes extreme head tightening.

He's OLD! And a Fatty McPatty! He doesn't even have a snazzy red sequined jacket or a totally rad keytar! He STOLE Russhole's HUG! Where are HIS fruits? Russ should totally sue...again!

Don't forget he just stood there while Studly Rusty would have shown off his sweet dance moves and fancy footwork.
But the worst part about it is that janitor has a fiancee. Already he's done more that Russtard could ever hope to do.
1. He managed to get onto the show.
2. He can not only move his face but he can sing.
3. He got Heidi to hug him,
4. He got a golden buzzer.
5. He's got a fiancee waiting at home.

"Sweet dance moves and fancy footwork" here meaning "bobbing up and down on his toes while he awkwardly slaps at a keytar like his fingers were dead mackerels" if the audition tape is any indicator of how he'd behave on stage.
