any agents on here?

10 points best answer!

Answer 1

You need an agent. Anybody can become famous with the right agent. That's not to say that you will become famous, but you won't even be able to get into auditions without the right agent. You're really pretty, by the way :)

Answer 2

You have to have something special about you that no one else has. Hollywood is filled with cookie cutters you need to define yourself in an original way.

Answer 3

Yes

Answer 4

WOW!

I think you have the look, the voice and the acting chops. .

It all depends on how dedicated you are! Don't let your dream escape you.

Do you live by New York? or are you at least going to college in NYC? if so it'd be easier to go to auditions.

You def. need an agent. It'll make ALL the difference. Not only do they find parts that they think will suit you they'll give you ALL the info. They really help

But if you  can't pay for one you can probably get by. .

I've never done anything other than Broadway so I can't help you with the commercials or anything. . Sorry.

But the best way to get used to singing every night is to try and get a job where you perform. Like a wedding singer, or performing at a bar.  [I was working as a wedding singer for 5 years]

  

But it's also VERY important to have an education. I have a Degree in Drama from Tisch University and it was so much easier getting jobs after I graduated. It also opens up your eyes to how PERFECT you have to be. How you have to pay attention to about 100 things while your on stage. It just makes you all the more comfortable when you know what your doing.

GOOD LUCK! And I hope to see you accompany me on Broadway!!

Answer 5

Your really good but, you need an agent. To be honest most talented people don't make it in the industry and many talentless people do (Miley Cyrus for instance). Good luck and break a leg!

Answer 6

The world is full of beautiful and talented girls who want to make it in entertainment, so the best thing you can do is what you're already on track to do: go to school and learn about your craft. You'll learn everything you need to know about maneuvering in the professional world in school, and when you start going on professional auditions you'll be taken more seriously if you have a performance degree listed on your resume. The best way to go about getting experience will vary depending on where it is that you're located, so the best thing you can do is talk to someone on the teaching staff at whatever college you'll be attending and asking them what sort of respectable performance opportunities are available in your area.

It really isn't too difficult for a reasonably talented person to have a solid career in the arts if they go about it the right way. The #1 thing to keep in mind is that like in any other field of work, getting an education will open up many more doors for you than just going out and looking for jobs.
