"America's Got Talent" contestant Grace Vanderwaal recently shared that she's lactose intolerant.
In her most recent post on Instagram, the 12-year-old Suffren native said that she wanted to get some ice cream at the shop that she saw. Unfortunately, she couldn't because she didn't bring Lactaid.
Vanderwaal also used the hashtag #ihatebeinglactoseintolerant that confirmed that she cannot consume dairy products without taking Lactaid.
"I just passed by an ice cream shop but couldn't get anything cuz I don't have Lactaid with me #ihatebeinglactoseintolerant," she captioned the photo.
Meanwhile, Vanderwaal just got through to the semifinals round in "America's Got Talent" season 11. After all of the votes were counted in, Vanderwaal was one of the acts that made it to top 5.
She was also joined by Edgar, Kadan Bart Rockett, Brian Justin Crum and Blake Vogt. Malevo was saved through the live votes via the Dunkin' Save, while Linkin' Bridge was saved by judges Howie Mandel, Simon Cowell and Mel B over 62-year-old singer Ronee Martin.
In the quarterfinals, Vanderwaal decided to sing another original song that she wrote for her 15-year-old sister. The song, which was entitled "Beautiful Thing," helped Vanderwaal gain even more recognition.
After her performance, the judges couldn't help but predict great things for the young singer/composer. Fans are also now anticipating on the possibility that Vanderwaal will perform another original song in the semifinals.
In other news, Vanderwaal recently spoke with Teen Vogue to share how much her life has changed since she joined the hit NBC reality TV competition.
"My friends don't really care anymore. But it's hard because you walk into school and people, who might have ever been mean to you, are all of a sudden looking at you like, 'Hey, best friend!' and are like, 'Do you want to hang out tomorrow?' And then at our lunch table - we literally used to sit alone, and people would go out of their way to squeeze their way into other tables, just to not sit at our table. All of a sudden our table is completely full and crowded. It's frustrating," she said.
