Del Mar resident Taylor Williamson made the cut and advanced in the competition on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent.”

“We have a tie both got two votes, so now we got to get to it,” said host Nick Cannon. “America's voted and said "Taylor Williamson."
Some of his material included his grandmother potentially being a murderer, being cheap because he's poor, not just because he's Jewish and reading a list of jokes to tell from a small piece of paper.

The 26-year-old has recorded a CD entitled “Laughter? I Hardly Know Her.”
