She revealed that she was born deaf into a family that did not know sign language, which made it difficult for her to express their thoughts well. However, she realized very early on that "comedy is a language everyone understands," which began her journey towards pursuing comedy as a career. Upon asking why she chose to audition on AGT, the comedian said: "This is one of the biggest stages in the world, and watching some of the people that AGT has given opportunities to has given me more confidence to pursue this for myself." Ahead of her audition, Hayden said she was inspired by comedians with special abilities. The show provided them with the required tools, which was part of why she was here. The AGT contestant began her performance with the help of a sign language interpreter and instantly impressed the viewers. The judges revealed that they were laughing throughout and that she would be a great addition to the comedians on the show. She earned all the judges' approval and moved ahead to the semi-finals. It will be interesting to see if Hayden has managed to impress America and if she continues to perform in the finals.
