"America’s Got Talent" singing sensation JACKIE EVANCHO‘s terror as her family is facing homelessness.
Only 10-year-old Jackie’s musical success can help struggling Michael and Lisa Evancho keep the financial wolves from their door, worried friends tell The ENQUIRER.
Her parents’ nightmare began more than two years ago when they were forced to file for bankruptcy after Mike lost his job.
They still owe almost $200,000 to an astounding 44 creditors, revealed an insider.
"While their little girl has become a hit around the world, they are still battling to keep a roof over their heads.
"Mike and Lisa were counting on their little angel Jackie to either win the $1 million first prize or carve a lucrative career out of the acclaim she’s won on the show," says the source
The incredibly talented fifth-grader wowed TV audiences when she sang a Puccini aria on the NBC talent show with the powerful, full-throated voice of an adult opera singer.
The petite blonde, who started singing at age 8, has gone on to become America’s singing sweetheart, attracting more than three million hits to her YouTube videos.
But her financially devastated parents are living month-to-month and hand-to-mouth, while pouring their hearts and money into fulfilling their precious daughter’s dream, confided insiders.
The Evanchos, who live in suburban Pittsburgh, have kept their plight secret from Jackie, her brothers and little sister.
"They don’t want them to worry that they could lose the house and be out on the street," revealed the insider.
