TGIF Feature: Us the Duo makes major announcement

SCREEN CAPTURE / YOUTUBE
Michael and Carissa Alvarado make up Us the Duo.

US THE DUO is officially, Us the Trio.

Carissa and Michael Alvarado, AKA Us the Duo, mentioned their wish to start a family during their audition for America's Got Talent

What they didn't say that Carissa, a Filipina American, is already 21 weeks pregnant with the baby due in October. She certainly look pregnant when they performed June 6. They'll probably wait until the next round of the reality show to make the official announcement that they are expecting a girl.

Here they are making the announcement on their YouTube page in the best way they know how, by singing:



As talented as they are, they will really pull out all stops to beat the other "talent" where they will have to compete against a plethora of other singers, magicians, dancers, comedians and a collection of unusual acts.

The early rounds of AGT are often the most fun before the gimmicky acts get eliminated, but often spells doom for traditional performers. We don't know how far this unusual comedic act Yumbo Dump from Japan will go, but the plump men brought a smile:



Or this spectacular juggling act, Mochi:


And then, there's this b-boy group made up of street children from the Philippines, Junior New System, dancing in high heels that got the judges up and clapping:



Talent comes in many forms. How can a singing couple rise above against all that competition? 

America's Got Talent airs Tuesdays, 8 p.m. EDT, 7 p.m. Central.
