After being named Billboard’s Top Christian Music Artist of the Year in 2023, Lauren Daigle jumped into this year with continued success. She recently joined Loren Allred to perform on “America’s Got Talent.”
“You’re my safe place, my hideaway; you’re my anchor, my saving grace,” sang Daigle.
Lauren Daigle and Loren Allred Share the Stage on ‘America’s Got Talent’
Lauren Daigle and Loren Allred share some remarkable similarities. Both are successful artists. The two hold fast to a relationship with Jesus. And both were contestants on talent shows early in their careers.
Daigle auditioned for “American Idol” back in 2010 and 2012. Her newest album, “Sessions,” provides powerful melodies alongside raw lyrics. Allred, who competed in 2012 on “The Voice” with Adam Levine as her coach, just released “Come Alive” with Scott Hoying.

Daigle and Allred recently shared a stage on “America’s Got Talent” (AGT). The show described the duo as an “epic duet that we will never forget!”
Fans may remember CeCe Winans singing “Goodness of God” on “American Idol.” This time, 10 million loyal viewers watched a Christ-centered performance on AGT. Accompanied by a single piano and some melodic strings, Daigle began by singing a portion of “Thank God I Do.” She sang,
I don’t know who I’d be if I didn’t know You
I’d probably fall off the edge
I don’t know where I’d go if You ever let go
So keep me held in Your hands
Daigle was then welcomed Allred to the stage for a duet. The two sang a snippet of Daigle’s hit, “You Say,” singing,
You say I am loved when I can’t feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
And you say I am held when I am falling short
And when I don’t belong, oh You say I am Yours
And I believe (I)
Oh, I believe (I)
What You say of me (I)
I believe
AGT host Terry Crews addressed Daigle directly, saying, “Lauren Daigle, you’re at the top of your game! For our contestants, what does it take to get there?”
“It takes persistence,” Daigle replied. “It takes dedication, takes working on your craft and knowing how to serve it well. And the most important thing is every person, every contestant, was made for a unique purpose.”
