[00:00:27]Very good.

[00:00:33]Dance is [music] my whole life.

[00:00:35]They tell me I was dancing before I was walking.

[00:00:39]My dance is like my way of communicating basically to show who [music] I am.

[00:00:45]I think my inspiration for choreography comes from like my love for music. I want to choreograph for Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, Nicki [music] Minaj, all those people. They're big dreams of mine.

[00:00:57]I think I'm nervous to perform today just because I'm not 100% used to dancing and performing by myself, but I think I think once I get out there I'll be fine.

[00:01:06]>> [cheering] >> Zach, how long have you been dancing?

[00:01:09][applause] Um I've been dancing since I was four. Wow. It's a very long time.

[00:06:18]Hi. So, who are you? My name's Jake Carter. Jake Carter, Jake, where are you from? Glasnevin.

[00:06:26]And what's your talent? I am AN IRISH DANCER.

[00:06:36]I'M JAKE. I'M [music] A HAIRDRESSER and I'm from Dublin, Ireland. Obviously.

[00:06:41]>> [music] >> I decided to enter Ireland's Got Talent because [music] I've been dancing all my life.

[00:06:51]I've won six times all Ireland champion.

[00:06:54]I've won Leinster, Dublin, international championships. I actually won on the stage the show was on today [music] before all Ireland championship.

[00:07:02]How weird is that?

[00:07:06]So about five years ago I took a step back from Irish dancing to become a hairdresser. I kind of had to give up like it was one or the other and now I'm coming back with a bang. Time for a comeback. I am nervous. Yeah, nervous about getting out there. I'm excited to start.

[00:07:18]It's been a while like you know.

[00:07:22]My favorite judge is Michelle [music] Visage. I absolutely love Michelle.

[00:07:27]That's my mama.

[00:07:29]I know she likes sass so I think I need to focus on my sass today to win her over.

[00:07:35]>> [music] >> I really want to come back and prove to me ma. This is something that me ma always wanted to tell me she put so much money in as when I was a child. So, it'd be really important for me to give back something. I just think that I have something inside that no one else has in the Irish [music] dancing world.

[00:07:51]And I'm ready to show everyone today.

[00:07:55]And Jake, what would it mean to you to get through today? It would mean the world to me to get through today.

[00:08:01]>> [cheering] >> So, you're going to Irish dance? I'm going to Irish dance. Brilliant. Can't wait. Cuz we haven't had much Irish dancing.

[00:08:08]Good. Off you go, Jake.

[00:08:09]>> [laughter] >> Off you go, Jake.

[00:08:11]Go on, Jake.

[00:08:12]GO ON, JAKE.
