At first, his appearance shocked the judges, but before they could comment on his weight, he was prepared with the clever quips. “Give a fat boy a chance,” he joked.
Once Combs revealed his heavenly voice, the judges and audience alike were completely blown away. His performance of Bette Midler’s hit song “Wind Beneath My Wings” showcased his gorgeous voice. Britney Spears, one of the judges, was brought to tears by Combs’ bravery and determination to publicly pursue his passion for singing, risking his chances of being body-shamed and ridiculed.
