Before they were known for their energetic dance performances, Elin and Noah were two young friends who stepped onto the America’s Got Talent stage ready to show the judges what they could do.
The young dance duo appeared during Season 10 of America’s Got Talent in 2015. Elin was 7 years old and Noah was 8 when they performed their audition.
Their choice of music immediately established the mood: MC Hammer’s classic “U Can’t Touch This.”
Elin & Noah Take Over the AGT Stage
When Elin and Noah walked onto the stage, they looked like two ordinary young kids preparing for an audition.
Then the music started.
The duo launched into an energetic hip-hop-inspired routine, combining synchronized movements, attitude and playful choreography.
Their performance showed that the two young dancers were comfortable performing together and knew how to command attention on stage.
A Dance to “U Can’t Touch This”
The song choice was a major part of the performance.
MC Hammer’s “U Can’t Touch This” gave Elin and Noah the perfect backdrop for a routine filled with energetic movements and personality.
The pair danced in sync while incorporating different movements throughout the performance. Their routine also included acrobatic moments, including handstands and a move in which Noah jumped over Elin.
The performance was short, energetic and designed to entertain.
The Judges React
The judges responded positively to the young duo.
The Season 10 panel included Howard Stern, Heidi Klum, Mel B and Howie Mandel.
After watching Elin and Noah perform, the judges gave the duo four yes votes, allowing them to move forward in the competition.
The reaction showed that the young dancers had successfully made an impression during their first appearance.
More Than Just Dancing
Part of the appeal of Elin and Noah was their personality.
The two young performers were presented as friends, and their interactions with the judges added another entertaining element to the audition.
Their confidence was especially noticeable considering their ages. Performing in front of a large audience and a television judging panel can be challenging for anyone, but the duo appeared ready to have fun with their performance.
Their AGT Journey Continued
Getting four yes votes did not mean the competition was over.
Elin and Noah returned later in the season for the Judge Cuts.
For that performance, they performed to Tag Team’s “Whoomp! (There It Is).”
However, their journey ended during the Judge Cuts, and they did not advance to the live shows.
Although they did not reach the live rounds, their audition remained one of the memorable young dance performances from the early part of Season 10.
Watch Elin & Noah’s Full Performance
The performance continues to circulate online through talent-show video channels, allowing new viewers to discover the young dance duo years after their original AGT appearance.
For fans of America’s Got Talent, kid dancers and classic talent-show performances, Elin and Noah’s audition is a fun reminder of the wide variety of performers who have appeared on the show.
Final Thoughts
Elin and Noah may have been among the youngest performers on the America’s Got Talent stage during Season 10, but they approached their audition with plenty of confidence.
Their energetic performance to “U Can’t Touch This” earned four yes votes and sent them through to the next stage.
Although their AGT journey ended during Judge Cuts, their original audition remains a memorable example of two young dancers bringing personality, energy and attitude to the stage.
