talent Okay. so. i'm 14-years, female, and live in alabama. I've been told soooo many times that i should try out for american idol, however, i have to be 16. I really want to be noticed. I've had voice lessons, and competed in vocal competitions. I realllly need some advice on how to be noticed..i've search for talent auditions and whatnot near me..and had NO luck whatsoever. i need an agent. help me please. xox7hearts;ash
[ ] Want to answer more questions in the Hobbies category? Maybe give some free advice about: Music?
you don't need an agent, you need connections. find classmates and kids at your school in the music department who play real instruments...guitar, piano, etc, that you can sing with and write songs with. believe me, finding musicians your age will help you much more than american idol, which even good singers have a slim chance of winning, plus getting signed to a record label on your own after writing your own songs will win you more respect and you'll have more creative control than someone who won a contest would. does your school do a battle of the bands? ask around the music department and someone will point you in the direction of auditions and talent shows. ]
are you in a choir? if so talk about it with your director. sometimes that dont like to hear that you are going to be singing stuff like country and rock and stuff because that is what they stand aginst but they will be happy too know that you want a career in music. well lets hope. lol
hope i helped!

I would suggest looking into Barbizon. You can learn a lot from them about show business in general, and they will help you get connected. You will have to decide for yourself if you think their programs are worth the money, but my son has been very happy with his experiences with them. He is also 14. They have done wonders for his self-confidence, helped him hone his abilities, and have given him sound advice. ]
The next time you compete ask one of the judges about how to continue your career in vocal performance , or ask your vocal teacher . If they think you have what it takes they will refer you to someone who can help. I know what you mean when you want to get noticed , im an awesome singer but until recently no one even knew , so make sure you are involved in as many musical activites as possible! ]
ive wanted to also...all you can do is wait. there are like no competitions open to teens because some people suck and they get all mad lol. if you have talent, why not put it into theater? thats what my voice teacher told me and now im trying out for a show. <3 ]
There's no really way to get noticed, unless if you have some very good connections. Personally, a scout went up to me while I was shopping in the mall if I wanted to model for Playboy. Little did they know I'm only 17. lol. It's the most random-ist stuff ever.
But, since you do vocal competitions, and I used too... ask your conductor if he/she knows anything about possible nation-wide competitions because I'm sure there will be scouts/agents looking for new talent to sign up.
GOODLUCK LOVELY!
Let me know how everything works out! :)
If you have any more questions or need follow up advice, please by all means feel free to ask me.
