This schoolgirl brought an entire room to its feet after her powerful performance of this Whitney Houston classic

The judges were skeptical when 12-year-old Maia Gough came out on the stage of “Britain’s Got Talent.” She looks like your average schoolgirl.

But she’s everything but average.

After Maia tells the judges Whitney Houston is her idol, they soon learn why: she’s just as powerful as the late-star herself.

What a beautiful rendition of “I Have Nothing.”
