America’s Got Talent Contestant Found Dead In South Carolina
She was only 23.
According to Yahoo.com, former America’s Got Talent contestant Skilyr Hicks has died. Her sister took to social media yesterday to confirm the horrible news.
She said “My super beautiful, extremely talented, hilarious, free spirit of a sister left this world to be with Jesus. I can’t possibly put into words how broken-hearted I am. I will miss her like crazy. I’ll miss her voice, her long warm hugs, her constantly making jokes using puns. Her ability to create music that inspired thousands of people.”
Hicks was 14 years old when she first appeared on season eight of AGT and performed in front of Heidi Klum, Howie Mandel, Howard Stern and Mel B.
Skilyr was found dead at a home in Liberty, South Carolina on Monday night, the Pickens County Coroner’s Office confirmed. A drug overdose is suspected, but not yet confirmed. Very sad news.
