  1. I am british, fabulous and determined to suceed. I sing, act and have character and personality! I want to audition so much

  2. Hi,
    My name is Courtenee' and I am 21. I'm not exactly in a group and I haven't yet become an artist but singing had always been my passion. Since I was a little girl singing and dancing has always been made for me. When I'm down it brings me up and when I'm bored it gives me something to do. Everyone who knows me knows that I can't go a day without them both. I haven't had much time to write lately due to most of my time being committed at work and to my child. I've always wanted to go somewhere with my talents especially for my child so this would be the perfect opportunity.

  3. Hi I'm Vanessa and I'm 14 years old. I sing, play the guitar, some piano & write songs. Singing & performing is much more than a hobby for me, it's my passion, also my set goal and dream. I'm contacting you because I'm looking for a way to expose my singing talent as a musician & came across this opportunity. If you would like to hear how I sound, click the link below. Hope to hear back from you soon. Thank you.

  4. Hi, I'm Julia Rose, I'm 25, I've been addicted to the rush of singing for an audience for a little over 5 years, but now I've been working on music more than ever. I started playing ukulele over this past summer so I could back myself musically at open mic nights, sound-cloud, and youtube. It has been my most beloved dream to be the next Fiona Apple, Gwen Stefani, or just to be a part of a band and sing my heart out freely. Nothing feels better to me than that. Lately more than ever music has been pulling at me so strongly, I hope it's been for good reason :).

  5. I think Opening Act is a great start for aspiring musicians, such as myself. I've been singing most of my life, and I enjoy blessing people with my natural gift. I perform under the name of Empress Serenade and would love to hear from you. Thanks!

  11. Hi! My name is Rocki STarz. I am a rock soul country singer. I have been across the world singing for many veterans and military personnel since my mom served and I was an only child and to occupy me with my talent, she allowed me to prepare and deliver in front of very important people. When I saw the smiles on their faces or tears roll down their faces, I knew then I had a purpose to shed a light over people situations in songs. I attended St. Anne's Catholic School in Sumter SC while living in one of the most notorious sides of town. It was a movie and things that I could understand though due to a religious background..couldn't touch. My story of the journey to become someone that makes an impact or our children lives, Such as Mary J. Blidge, has been rough. I never give up because ITS ALL WORTH IT! I has an opportunity like this prior of my dance crew on So you Think YOu Can Dance with Paula Abdul, Traveled from ATL to NY, when we got there we weren't able to audition for personal reasons. At that time it broke my heart that I had people that have never been out of their "HOOD", with extreme amount of talent and then a stumbling block appeared. I told them to never ever loose hope because the opportunity will come around again and then we will ALL make it! For my community , my family and especially for the WORLD! That's why I feel That I'm great for this show, because my brand is already known a little and this is an opportunity to show the fans that already believe in me that we've made it! STay True to your talent and LET's HAVE SOME SERIOUS FUN!!! Love Rocki STarz

I have song at talent shows and won trophies. I would like to have more opportunities to sing and perform which is what I love to do.

  19. Hello my name is shaquis I'm 19 born in raise in the city of Los Angeles.My mother was the one who discoverd my talent at the age of 5 ,which I surprise a lot with the unique voice god had gave too me.At the age 14 I decided too move with big hope which was the talent I was blessed with writing,signing,dancing.i lost hope into a lot of things when I was thrown into the foster care because of a tragic reason .Which left me too be apart from my mother I begin too write cause that was taught.when I feared or cried I wrote in express my hardship cause I wanted too promote the truth.ANd speak the words for other lost souls like I was.when my mother died two years ago which my whole family found out last year.I step up too the plate too knocked the fear away .I've always was told I was a great singer ha too much comparisons too Rihanna.If I was selected too be on this cast show I would be able too show my pride in love for music.My mother always wanted me too make it in made a lot of sacrifice too make it happen for me.But not having many option she could of provided she was young I wanna live on her dreams she once had for herself in help my young siblings causenim there mother in they look up too me……………..I would love too give them a better life before they reach my age…….I wanna change the world for every lost soul who has no hope……if I was too make it in this world I would give back because I was taught too……I would live to be on this show

  20. Damn! It's on 2012…. But I would just like to try, I'm very interested in singing. I'm now working hard on getting scouted by any talent agencies n creating my own songs.Music is what I love most, so I wanna inspire others too…

  21. I would love to be in your show. I believe I can sign and I have always wanted to sign on air. please help me with my dream. God bless you.

  22. It would truly be a blessing to be apart of your show because Musiq is my life and it runs in my veins. I am a singer at heart but i do Rock, Rap, R&B, Hip-Hop,Pop and COuntry as well please give me an email as to when i can audition

  23. I’ve been singing for as long as I can remember. It’s funny because I can’t even remember when I started singing. It just feels like it’s always been the essence of me. As a child, I use to spend countless hours in my room singing over and over artists like Natalie Cole and Stephanie Mills and in the later years of course the great Whitney Houston. All the brooms in the house were my microphones and I would pretend I was on stage singing for thousands.
    I’ve always dream of being on stage. Singing is not just a performance for me but it’s in my soul, it’s like a release. It’s a part of me. Obviously, there have been disappointments along the way and there have been times when I wanted to give up but I found out it’s extremely painful to kill a dream. To suppress what you’ve been called to do and to have that gift keep reminding you “I’m still here and I need to be released!” I have always been told that I have a beautiful voice. Everyone who has ever heard me always ask me “are you still singing? When you going to put that record out? Hit a note for me right now (smile). While I appreciate the love, it’s painful that I have not succeeded in what I know to be a true gift. I realize more and more that it’s a gift that has not really been given the right opportunity it’s needed to not only be heard but to bless those who hear it. I hope I’m given this opportunity. I promise you, you will not be disappointed.

  24. Hi, my name is Alexsondria R. I am 11 years old from slatington Pennsylvania. This means the world to me.

I want people to understand that everybody is beautiful. I want to be the voice that says it all. When I sing, I get butterflies, as if my voice will take me somewhere. I want the world to know who I am. If you don't read this, or don't email me, or contact me, I understand. I know that you are very busy with all of this. I would just like of you understand how much this means to me. I would love if you could contact me. Thank you do much for your time. God bless! <3

  35. Hello,
    My name is Michelle H, and I would love the opportunity to audition for an amazing show like this! I have been auditioning for many shows and have sang in several competitions. I'm a hard worker and I never give up on my dreams! One of my many hidden talents I have is to sing in Spanish, being that it is my first language. I hold a lot of pride in where I come from and who I am as a person! These qualities are great to have in order to be a successful role model for the youth in today’s world. I would be very grateful to have the chance to audition and show the world what I am capable as a person but also what I have to share and give to the public. I live for connecting with others through music and I will live for music. Gracias, and I hope you consider me as a candidate for this show.
