Antoinette Clinton (born September 29, 1985), known professionally as Butterscotch, is an American beatboxer, singer, and musician.
Early life and education
Butterscotch learned to play the piano at an early age as her mother was a piano teacher. Her siblings all played the piano plus one other instrument trumpet, cello, trombone, clarinet; Clinton had access to all these instruments.
As Butterscotch grew older, she was exposed to beat boxing by her high school friends, and was inspired to learn the skill, adopting the stage name "Butterscotch" which originated from a song Antoinette wrote in high school.
She attended Natomas Charter School's Performing and Fine Arts Academy in Sacramento, California, where she focused on music.
America's Got Talent
Butterscotch gained national exposure in 2007 when she appeared on the second season of America's Got Talent. She both sang and beatboxed, as well as a combination of the two while playing the piano, for her performances. The judges passed Butterscotch through several episodes and she was voted back by the viewers several times. She was in the final four (the last stage of the competition before the winner is announced), before being voted out by the viewers on the show which aired August 20, 2007. A number of videos with Butterscotch have gained wide popularity on YouTube.
