Angelica Nero Steals the Spotlight as Victoria
For those who might not know her viral background, Angelica Nero is a 5-year-old child singer, violinist, and internet prodigy known for her emotional vocal covers and original music. However, the young star also got to showcase some of that immense talent on screen, where she recurs as Victoria, the daughter of Xander and Sarah.
During the September 2 episode of the series, Xander and Victoria made a quick stop at the Horton Town Square. There, Victoria played the new bongo drums her daddy bought her and excitedly declared her love for music.
Then Xander spotted a piano in the Square. That was all Victoria needed. She ran over and started playing, and before long, she had everyone’s attention.
But Victoria wasn’t finished. The little performer then made another splash as she sang “All I Want” while someone else played the keyboard.
And wow. Just wow.

We were literally glued to the screen, just saying “Oh my God… Oh my God…” over what turned out to be a truly breathtaking performance.

Then there was this reaction: “Victoria is easily the best part of this episode!”
