TV personality Sizwe Dhlomo has come out strongly to defend DJ Arch Jnr against social media 'know-it-alls'.

Mzansi joined forces to celebrate the six-year-old after he lit up the America's Got Talent stage and received a standing ovation from judges. 

Sizwe shared his joy for the young child star, saying that Arch Jnr was destined for greatness especially after Simon Cowell express interest in wanting to nurture him. 

"You and I need to be talking after this show because I got plans for you," Simon Cowell said after Arch Jnr's set.

Arch also impressed other judges Howie Mandel, Mel B and Heidi Klum helluva. 

Among the many congratulatory messages, there were also tweeps who expressed concern that the rate of Arch's success might take away his chance to enjoy being a child.

Sizwe shared his thoughts on the matter.

Sizwe also defended AJ when another follower said he doesn't have manners because he didn't say "thank you" to some of the judges' feedback while he was on stage.

He reasoned that the six-year-old may have just been nervous and that him not saying thank you wasn't about not having manners.
