Even the best singers get nervous, if you get to a point where you do something and you dont get nervous, then you shouldnt be in it any more. As far as getting over it, everyones different, and you just have to keep trying and find what every that little trick is for you to get over your problem. I think that one thing that might work is what worked for me, get up there and pretend you're better than everyone in that room. Because they arent up on that stage are they? they are sitting and watching you and your talent. And if you have the talent to sing, and they dont, then they cant be upset if you mess up, because I'd like to see them try and do what I do kinda thing.
You just have to figure out what works for you. Hope you can get ove this confidence thing, and I hope I helpped you a bit. Maybe one day I'll see you on American Idol! Love,
