My sister amazes me! (AW proud rave)

She is, as I type, auditioning for one of those American-Idol type singing shows. She drove all the way down to NJ to do this.

Now, I don't believe my sister has a snowball's chance in Hades (she acted in high school, while I was the singer-- in fact, she has never had any voice lessons and I know she does not have as strong a voice as she thinks, but I would NEVER tell her that), but how kick-arse are her ovaries that she has driven down to NJ at 35 years old (married, two kids, definitely over her "fighting weight") to compete with 20-something, thin-thin, trained singers!!

I would NEVER have the guts to do that!

My sister is so kick-arse!

  • She is impressive!  That's pretty awesome.  I wouldn't have the guts to do that either!
  • That's awesome! Whether it ends up turning into anything or not, I'm sure just going to the audition will be an interesting experience in itself!
  • Good for her! I think it's awesome that she made the trip to audition, even if it turns out that she doesn't progress she can always say she went for it! Smile 
  • They showed the line this morning on the Today Show since Cee-Lo Green was preforming and I guess the auditions are for a show he is on. Good Luck to her and hope she can stay cool!

    THAT'S the one! I am so bad with these shows...

    My sister's entire group failed to receive a call back and my sister said that there were some "PHENOMENAL singers" in her group. I can't imagine what you would need to do to get a callback, then, if being a fantastic singer isn't enough!
