Lee joined the Detroit Youth Choir as one of the final two acts competing for the $1 million grand prize and the right to headline the “America’s Got Talent Live” show at the Paris Theater at Paris Las Vegas Hotel & Casino in November.

“I feel so amazing,” Lee, who was accompanied onstage by his mother, said after he learned of his victory. “Unbelievable.”

Lee was born with optic nerve hypoplasia, resulting in him going blind at a young age. He also has autism and Addison’s disease, a condition caused when the adrenal glands don’t produce enough of the hormone cortisol.
