My school's choir is doing a cabaret show and I have a solo in the song "Popular" from the play Wicked. I can sing the solo very well but I have a problem with singing infront of my class. I can sing infront of other people just not infront of the class. I need to practice with everyone so I can get it down perfectly. So, my question is... How do I get rid of my nerves or atleast be able to sing without a shakey voice? I try to tell myself they will judge me no matter how I sound but it doesn't seem to help. (link)

Nervousness is usually caused by lack of confidence in your own abilities- so I think that possibly recording yourself singing the solo, anylizing your sound, and making improvements could help a lot. And plus, your choral director most likely gave you this solo for a good reason, he or she probably believes that you can sing it better than anyone else could. Also, practicing it in front of a mirror can help a lot. Practice, practice, practice until it becomes second nature. And also, you can relax because you've already gotten the part, you don't have to audition again.
Another thing is that (in the grand scheme of things) it doesn't really matter what your peers think of your singing, it only matters what your choral director thinks. If he or she thinks you're doing it well, then you are! Just laugh to yourself if you hear anyone gossiping about your performance. Chances are, they're probably just jealous! Good luck! :)

Thank you so much. My director told me that I really need to work on confidence. I'm very shy when it comes to singing infront of everyone. You really helped me and it was right on time! The show is tomorrow!
