"America's Got Talent" judge Piers Morgan brought a 12-year-old to tears in the Los Angeles studio, saying he should dump his older brother from the act.

"Yeah, I thought he was a genius, the boy ... he was a great harmonica player," judge Piers Morgan told Us. "He rocked."
The guitar player knows the truth, Morgan reckoned. The younger, more-talented musician just needs a back-up band.
Morgan told Us he has no remorse for his harsh judgments because "America's Got Talent" is a million-dollar competition and everyone understands how difficult the judging is.
"I also don't think he was crying because of what I said, I think he was crying because part of him knows that I was right," said Morgan. "But we're not here to say (to) these kids 'Just because you're young, we can't be honest with you.'"
