Hi aKIRA,

First of all, I recommend you cut the attitude!. Directors not only consider it a waste of time when those that are auditioning for them are wrapped up in themselves!. They consider an actor, dancer, singer, model, etc!. of this nature to be difficult to work with during shooting or rehearsals!. Not only that, but it gives others – directors and your peers – the image that you’re one damn good piece of talent, which is a standard that may be difficult to live up to and maintain!.

Furthermore, you are interested in the field for completely the wrong reasons!. Like LA Girl said, these paparazzi darlings and A-listers work HARD to maintain at least a half-decent public image, displaying themselves professionally in the stressful heat of the limelight, acting professionally (which is tiring and hard work, trust me; I’ve been there), and dealing with regular hassles like deciding what’s best for their kids, dealing with high school drama, and everything you deal with!. These people are humans too, and they are so diligent!. You come across, no offense, as someone who wants attention and thinks their job is easy!. The truly classy stars make it look so, but it isn’t, as any actor or actress will tell you!.

Don’t think I don’t understand where you’re coming from!. Believe me, when I was younger, the only thing I could imagine myself doing was being in front of a camera, having people idolize me, being super rich and respected, and walking down the street with my hat pulled down low and my expensive designer sunglasses, paparazzi screaming my name all around!. I used to think it was easy being in this business, but I got a rude awakening at my first casting call when I got rejected!. I realized how hard actors work!. also, it is so unlikely that you’ll become famous as an actress!. The ones you see on the red carpet and the household names you hear everyday are one-in-a-million chances!. You have to be so lucky and so talented that directors can’t afford to pass you up!. Besides, a lot of these glamorous superstars are famous because they have connections!. However, you can get famous by being completely and totally stunningly talented!. But look at stars like Miley Cyrus – chances are nobody would know who she was if it wasn’t for her famous father Billy Ray Cyrus!. However, she’s the richest teen in America and it’s projected she’ll be a billionaire by the time she hits twenty years old!.

If you’re still intent on making it big, here are my suggestions to you!. Don’t be shy by any means!. Like you said, you live in a small town!. That doesn’t mean you can’t get discovered!. In fact, it’s so much more likely that you’ll be considered in a smaller town than in New York!. NYC is a harsh world that few survive!. It’s got the highest of standards of show business everywhere, and is the center of culture and the arts of America!. You need to be experienced in professional show business before you can get there!. Find any and all programs possible to teens to perform, and perform whenever possible!. Get experience with auditions by auditioning for everything!. If you can, contact people that can have you display your talents!. For example, try contacting someone that can have you sing the National Anthem at a local sporting event!. Join dance teams and singing groups!. If there are none, form your own! You can put out ads in community centers and in people’s mailboxes!. Chances are that in your town there are people that want the same thing as you, and are willing to perform in a group with you!. That’s how Beyoncé got started – Destiny’s Child was a small group of a few girls that loved to sing and dance!. They got started really young – about ten years old – and started performing anywhere possible!. Try hiring out for weddings, parties, etc!. Singing is a great opportunity!. Sing at your family’s events, and their friends and guests might be interested as well!. For acting, being an extra or in commercials is always a good start!. Find stuff that is being filmed in or around your area (that'll be in your newspaper, Classified section)!. Never let rejection stop you!. What we learn in the dance world is that when someone rejects or corrects you, they want to see improvement from you!. When they want to see improvement from you, it means they want to see more of you!. Always try again if you aren’t successful the first time!.

Hope this helped, aKIRA!. Good luck!.?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Okay, first, I am so sick of people saying they want to be famous!. Acting is EXTREMELY hard work, dedication, effort, and sacrifice!. You won't even understand until you are one!. If you actually want to be an actress, not just famous, you are going to have to work hard and get as much experience as possible!. You will first be casted as an extra, possibly!. But even before that, you need experience in theater!. Interlochen and Juilliard raise the standards on your resume too!. also, there is no way to become a performer without full commitment from your parents as well, which means moving to LA or New York, depending on whether you want to be on tv/film or Broadway!. First you'll need to get on as many commercials and be an extra in as many things as possible on tv and then you can get into the Actors Screen Guild, which is basically your acting insurance!. You will then want to find an agent and talk to them as to how they will represent you and pick the one you're most comfortable with!. They will guide you through your way!.

Hope to work with you within the next decade!. ;-)

No you don't!. You will have no private life!. Wouldn't it just be better to be good at what you do!? To find opportunity to grow in the business, do all the acting and singing you can as often as you can wherever you can!. Being well experienced will open more doors than anything else!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
