POSTED BY :Billboard Staff

America has voted. And — voila — magician Dustin Tavella is the winner of America’s Got Talent 2021.

The season 16 champion is a man of many talents. He impressed in the first round with his card trickery, then pulled out his mentalist skills in the semis, and in the final stretch, floored everyone with routines that fused storytelling and eye-popping magic.

The Virginia -native snags the $1 million prize, a new car, and a headlining show in Las Vegas, and he did it without the benefit of a Golden Buzzer.

A married dad, Tavella beat out Aidan Bryant, Josh Blue, Léa Kyle and Brooke Simpson to claim the crown. He’s just the third magician to win it all.
