Pearlman’s cut was followed by a seemingly endless commercial interruption, after which we finally learned the runner up and winner of this exhilarating season. Drew Lynch, the speech-impaired comedian that won America’s hearts seemed to be the frontrunner in the race, however, the $1 million prize ultimately went to ventriloquist Paul Zerdin. The race was so close that host  Nick Cannon claimed he won by only one percent. The Season 10 finale also marked the departure of beloved host Howard Stern, who had kind words to say about his colleagues and fellow judges.
