Adorable how little Leanne pulled her opponent back to her side as he was exiting in defeat. It seems they were friends and it was a very good sport gesture.
I've noticed a pattern where younger kids can usually sing louder and more forcefully with a fuller voice before their late teens than when they're adults.

Wow I came across this and LeAnn Rimes sounded AMAZING here! I can see why she won and she went on to make it big in the country music world and she's still recording music. LeAnn is more awesome now too.
Yes you are right. But Leanne had the most devoted parents any kid with talent could ever dream of. Imagine if poor Susan Boyle had a decent family. More needs to be done to give talented kids with disabilities the careers they deserve. They are far more grateful than the rest.
@Sitting Duck Leanne's family was abusive and used her. She talked in an interview where they made her perform while ill. Doing more shows than adults. Hampster wheel
@liveyourlifeextra4576 yep! Her family made her preform when she was sick, running fever, she did more shows as a child than most adults. She did an interview about her parents abuse/exploitation. I think that is why she married her first husband, just to break away. I also believe that is why now she just does what she wants, smaller venues, for the love of the music.
@@GameChanger597Yes there is an interview on RUclips where she talks about her family especially her father. He was her manager and robbed LeAnn blind and she was unaware for a long time. She sued him.
Saw Leann Rimes in Kansas City when she was about 11. Increadable and as cute as could be. I will always see her as the daughter I never had. Love her.
It would have been amazing for Leeann and Marty Robbins to have done a duet together. They both had/have the same vocal ranges and were/are the quintessential performers !!
I’m saw her years ago in a bar in southeast Oklahoma. Her parents were at the table next to us. I asked my friends at the table who let that little girl in here. Then she went up on stage. When I heard her voice, the hair on the back of my neck stood up. She was amazing! I said then that she was going places.
She is beautiful Has a strong voice, and sings country like no other can compete with her. I feel bad for all these poor child stars and singers put to work as such a young age. I know she had a hit album 5 years later. 13 years old. None of them ever get to be kids
@@GameChanger597..... Thanks for your reply/question. No, I haven't seen her (via video's) in the last four or five months. Why do you ask?... has she drastically changed? We ALL, get older.... if "we" don't die young for one reason or another.
That Levi is pure gentleman! He accepted his loss graciously & was instantly happy for LeAnn. He seems so nice, I’m thinking maybe she should have gone for him, thinking her life probably would have been more stable than it turned out to be.
Come on Ed! Leave the adults comments for adults! This is just one of the many emotional abuses children have to endure in the entertainment industry. Did you notice how the kids ignored his comments, twice?
Probably the most "famous" female country singer of her time but definitely NOT the "best." Nowhere near it. Her voice couldn't blow you away like some of the other phenomenal voices out there in country music could. She was a great singer and popular with mainstream country music at the time but to say she was the best is an overstatement knowing the talent out there that easily surpassed Patsy Cline.
Wow, so creepy Ed. I'm here at the youtube video because I was on this actual show with a band from Boston in the band category and I remember these two in the dressing room area. We lost right off the bat and they showed us the door almost immediately!
You were in Ultra Blue? That's so cool. (Were you also in New Man, by any chance?) Star Search was such industry poison by '91, losing was the real prize.
I know! That's why I asked. Well, I guess that lets me know who you aren't. Your episode's on here, by the way. You can find it in my playlist (Star Search '91 Vocal Groups), or you can search for the show title and April 1991 and it comes up. P.S. Was Brock in the band for less than a year? Did he even make it to 1990? I figured he would have stayed for as long as Tim did, but he certainly didn't make it long enough to meet Ed...
Truth is Levi died years ago from cystic fibrosis: starlocalmedia.com/mesquitenews/news/from-wrangler-to-star/article_b3012e8c-8a34-11e4-84e0-3348ec3f3709.html Interestingly enough, Leann has performed at concerts organized by cystic fibrosis organizations.
I bet she could understand hers, not a hard concept. They grow up really fast in show business too unfortunately. But there's few songs child appropriate that could showcase their skills.

Such a sweet good sport gesture from her. 😊❤️
This is and was a very special child, l as everyone else am amazed by Miss LeAnn Rimes, thank you !!!!!!!!!
What an amazing talent. At age 8 she was already a star.
They were both exceptional. To be at that age and sing w conviction and belting is just jaw dropping
I was a great. I am a lean Rimes fan of her Traditional country
I've noticed a pattern where younger kids can usually sing louder and more forcefully with a fuller voice before their late teens than when they're adults.
Levi did such a great job!
So sad that he died of cystic fibrosis while a member of Craig Wayne Boyd's band "Southland."
@CRW LH oh no, I was just about to Google his name and see how his life turned out. Heartbreaking.
@@57clc I would say don't be sad that he is gone but be happy he got to live his dream, even if for a short time.

Star search from the 80's produced more big stars then any all the other talent shows combined.
????? Proof on that.

Remember watching this; thanks for posting! Nice to see this again!
Wow! Star power at such a young age!
Fun to watch these wonderful childhood performances
Like a boss! She could always sing.
Leann has always had a powerful voice. I bet the nabors could hear her cry from down the road, but it sounded really good !!!!!
RIP LEVI....he passed away from Cystic Fibrosis
Oh no, that’s so sad.
Omg so sad rip levi garret 🎉
🥺
Wonderful kindness only found in the innocence of pure young Hearts, so good, both are champions in my book
Levi sounded great too. She’s pure talent. Both sounded great 👍🏻! LeAnn has same exact face now.
They’re Both Amazing!❤️
amazing voice like a angel for"leann rimes"i love it 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉
Saw Leann Rimes in Kansas City when she was about 11. Increadable and as cute as could be. I will always see her as the daughter I never had. Love her.
So cute and genuine friendship and kindness 🧡
Sorry he passed. What a terrific Voice this young Boy had. I hope he made "it" before he passed on..
🙏🌈Godspeed Thee Levi
Passed ? When and how ?
It would have been amazing for Leeann and Marty Robbins to have done a duet together. They both had/have the same vocal ranges and were/are the quintessential performers !!
So good she sang,little Leanne… Also what a beautiful hair!
I remember fixing my baby girl’s hair like Leanne’s here! Lots of Aqua Net! Lol!😅
How talented these two are at such a young age

She's amazingly talented
She was so adorable! Still beautiful today

I’ve never seen this before I’m sure glad I have now she was awesome then and Scher grew up to be an awesome little star damn that is awesome
I looked up the boy Levi and found out he had passed away, very sad. But, we all know how LeAnn's life turned out, she did well.
What happened
@@nicole4659 - The source I found never said from what or how old he was.
I read it was due to cystic fibrosis. Sounds like it was a few years ago.
She was such a cutie, and love her voice, and that Marty Robbins is always a hit
She was a "Cutie" back then..... Now, she's just flat out Beautiful... and so is her voice!
@@Romans--bo7br Have you seen her now? Without makeup? 😬
@@GameChanger597..... Thanks for your reply/question. No, I haven't seen her (via video's) in the last four or five months. Why do you ask?... has she drastically changed? We ALL, get older.... if "we" don't die young for one reason or another.
That Levi is pure gentleman! He accepted his loss graciously & was instantly happy for LeAnn. He seems so nice, I’m thinking maybe she should have gone for him, thinking her life probably would have been more stable than it turned out to be.
He even complemented her to the extreme before the vote. Very gracious attitude
I remember this like it was yesterday, I knew she'd make ❤
I remember watching this way back in the day She seems so mature for an 8 yr old
Leann Still gets my vote.
Wow talk about flash back Leanne was so little she definitely had the voice then & still does !!!
And a star she shall be beautiful voice
She’s still a humble person, it’s a shame everything she had to go through. Love will do that to you
WOW, so sweet ❤❤❤
The boy is an excellent singer as well!!
You both are great
Awesome She was remarkable ❤️🙏
What a cutie pie!
That was so cute. 💕
LeAnn Rimes did sing well in this competition.
So cute both of them Aww.
BRILLIANT kids
Come on Ed! Leave the adults comments for adults! This is just one of the many emotional abuses children have to endure in the entertainment industry. Did you notice how the kids ignored his comments, twice?
Go to Walmart and buy yourself a sense of humor!
She sang Patsy Cline the best female country singer of all time

Her voice couldn't blow you away like some of the other phenomenal voices out there in country music could. She was a great singer and popular with mainstream country music at the time but to say she was the best is an overstatement knowing the talent out there that easily surpassed Patsy Cline.
What is up with Ed McMahon’s comments to these children?
I use tove this show
Not sure how his voice changed, but he should still be famous! For his voice!
He was! He was in a band
Shamfull how the country music fans turned on her 10 or so years later " blue "
What star search episodes did kathy ross appear in before appearing in Nickelodeon?
Loved star search
omg i remember watching this live, i remember the song the boys sing, im looking for the boy who sang in piano I dont have the heart
Levi need a NEW Star Search!
I knew her in Garland, TX and she was touted as the next Patsy Cline !! Leann has had tough times but she is still a great talent !
Did you know about the name of the elementary school in Garland ?
Thanks!
He nailed it! What happened to him? He should have been BIG! Beautiful voice! I love her, but he was absolutely FANTASTIC! He should try a come back!
He died.
How ?
Wow she was always a STAR.
What a sweetheart
How do you have so much confidence and poise at 8.
Next movie: "Honey, I shrunk LeAnn Rimes." :)
She really looks like her mom here before all the plastic surgery.
She had a hit record 5short yrs after this.
Awe how sweet
Levi Garrett was cool!
Wow wow wow full talented Lee ann
That was too cute when she grabbed him, and he listened too.
What become of that boy as an adult? Anyone know?
He died
Que linda desde chiquita.ok.
odd how this 1991 clip seems like it's from 1967
Who is here because of the masked singer?
if u mean the star search theme, (i'm assuming you do, I agree.

This poor boy had no chance....when the audience clapped halfway through her performance he knew he was done....
Levi became angry and bitter. There's an interview with him on RUclips.
It's a fake. I just watched it. That's an actor in an entire series of strange shorts. Not Levi.

@@Memorymakersmusic Oh wow. Well done. I certainly fell for it.
@@rmwolfe That's sad. I hope he had a good life.
If you have that theme song, I'd be 4ever in you debt.
I never understood why they have these little kids sing songs they couldn't possibly understand the emotions conveyed in them.
And yet they pulled it off like champs.
I bet she could understand hers, not a hard concept. They grow up really fast in show business too unfortunately. But there's few songs child appropriate that could showcase their skills.
Who’s the host!?
To think LeAnn's husband, Eddie, was able to vote when she was on this show! 😂
👍👍👍
oh my G.What a sweet girl, than and today.This smile for 1 mil. dollars
Sorry Leann, I think he should have won
And she still looks the same today, without plastic surgery!
❤❤❤❤🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🌏🌏🌏
Winner
Hate to say it but he sounded better. He deserved the ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I ordered Terra for a year - they sent me copper every time. after a year I finally got Terra instead of what I did not order,
Aired on April 27, 1991.
He was good to
we know where Le Ann is now, where is Levi now
Levi died from cystic fibrosis, but seriously, who names their kid after chewing tobacco..
Levi thought the name came from jeans
Seriously who names there son Pete which is short for Peter, which is a slang for penis.
@@williamwilkins3046 Who names their kid William, which can be shortened to Willy, which is slang for penis..
🌞
Poor Levi, he didn’t know what was coming. He got smoked.
to date i feel sorry for Levi
Not even close
Whatever happened to Levi Garrett?
Wrong. I actually work with him. :)
He passed from Cystic Fibrosis.
I was told he died
@@nintenhoe no you don't
and to think its a Marty Robbins song, very hard songs to sing
Cute kids!
Wow, she sounded like Patsy Cline. Her voice grew up before she did.
Lean de niña. Que bonita
