On : 2010 Jun 16

Alice Tan Ridley, mother of Oscar-nominated 'Precious' star Gabourey Sidibe, blew the crowd away with her sizzling rendition of Etta James' 'At Last,' on America's Got Talent audition last night.

Alice Tan Ridley, 58, has been singing in subway stations for 20 years.

"My name is not on Gabby's paycheck," the singer told the New York Post. "When I come home at the end of the day, I have enough to pay my bills and feed my kids," she said. "People always say, 'Why don't you sing in clubs?' I tell 'em, 'This is my club.'"
