Much like a poet, you know, or a priest or, you know, someone giving a sermon. You have to kind of pay attention. And when there's no audience, as there wasn't in that round of America's Got Talent, you just play to the judges. And I had Howie giggling a little bit, even though he wasn't supposed to. And some of the camera guys were laughing and some of the producers. So I just played to them.
