Do you have to be born a good actress or singer?

Question:well, it does help to be born with the natural ability to sing or act. but i suppose, if you start at a young age, that with training in singing or acting, you'll be pretty good by the time your 14 or 15. and don't ever listen to people if they say you can't do it; that your just not born with it. that's pooey.
keep training your self, and you'll get it. ^.^
keep going!

To a degree, yes. It helps

Some people can be trained, but it helps to have a natural appitude.

The meaning of "good" depends on who you wish to please and why.
