Angelica Hale is a Filipino-American child singer who was born on July 31, 2007, in Atlanta, Georgia to her father James Hale and her mother Eva Bolando. Her mother is from Iligan City, Philippines, and her father is half Caucasian, half Filipino. When Hale was just four-years-old, she fell ill due to severe bacterial pneumonia which caused septic shock and several of her organs failed including her kidneys. In 2013, Hale spent 80 days at the Children's Healthcare of Atlanta where she received a kidney transplant from her mother that saved her life.
Hale didn't let her close brush with death deter her and she immediately began taking singing lessons from vocal coach Tricia Grey in Alpharetta, Georgia to pursue her passion for singing. She has performed at Children's Miracle Network Hospitals and Children's Healthcare of Atlanta as well as won a singing competition for children ages five to nine. In 2017, Hale was a contestant on the twelfth season of "America's Got Talent" where she ultimately placed second making her the youngest runner-up in the history of the show. She went on to sing the National Anthem in Atlanta for the Atlanta Braves vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Game on October 8, 2018. Hale also became the first child ambassador of the National Kidney Foundation.
