Tayelor JohnsonHello, My name is Tayelor Johnson. I am 20 years old. Since the day I could talk (or probably before that) I had a passion for music. Singing is my life. For the past couple of years I have been working on developing my craft. My platforms have been through various choirs and also a couple of solo performances. I am still working on my nervousness and open myself up to bigger and bigger audiences. What better way to do that than to be able to display my natural born talent than on television.

Vanika BrandonFor so long I have been trying to pursue my dream of becoming a star. I have audition for American idol, I have audition for the voice 5 times, I auditioned in front of Aretha Franklin. As you can see I am no stranger to following my dreams. Each time I auditioned they would always say to me how I sound really good, but just pass me by. I pray that I get the chance to show the world that I have talent. I am asking ABC to please give me a chance to audition. Thanking you all in advance. ~Vanika 0 Reply September 30, 2014

Bryan McNairThe essence of entertainment lives within me. Standing at 5.5 and a half feet of heart and passion, I should be featured in this production because I am capable of bringing screens to life. The name “Bryan McNair” is one that brings with it a desire to entertain, a desire to learn and grow in the world of theater and film, and the desire to give life to any role that might be put in front of me. Aside from being a very animated personality, I also sing and capture the attention of crowds fairly easily. I love improvisation, and there is no greater feeling than to be naturally funny and to successfully garner the attention of complete strangers. I live to be under the light of entertainment. With a huge imagination, there is no angle that I cannot play and master with personal spark and infinite charisma. If selected, my positive energy will fill any missing piece of a production’s puzzle. 0 Reply September 12, 2014

Caitlyn ColemanIm Caitlyn Coleman. I am 13 & i would appreciate if you consider me on Rising Star. I live in a small town in Texas called San Augustine & I have been singing whole life. I would sing at church and i was recently in a musical this summer, “The Wizard of Oz” but i was a munchkin according to my age. People told me that they could hear my voice loudest out of everybody. My moms boyfriend would play the guitar & let me sing to whatever it was that he was playing. He would usually play a lot of old country like, Sweet Home Alabama, or some rock like Joan Jett, Aerosmith, and Bon Jovi. I recently live with my grandmother who has always believed in me & never gave up on me. I always wanted to write songs with my best friends, but we could never find the right beat. My dream was always to be a singer, & if you let me in Rising Star, you would not be disappointed. If you want to contact me, my email does not work. If you can, look me up on Facebook, and you will see 2 girls that look the same, those are both my profiles. Brown hair, blue eyes, freckles. 🙂 think about it. 0 Reply August 21, 2014

Trayvion GoodingI feel like this opportunity would great for me because it allows me to do the one and only thing I’ve ever been good at, and that is to entertain. Growing up I had a learning disability so it left an open door for people to make fun of me and bully me. Needless to say I struggle making my way through high school until I discovered I had God given ability to attract people through dance. Dance along with the ability to sing saved me. It gave me an outlet. It also made me so happy to see the impact I had on people through sharing my talents. I feel like I should be on this show to make people aware that everyone has the ability to be great at something but how great depends on what they do their abilities….. 0 Reply August 19, 2014

Justin James RemeikisMy name is Justin James Remeikis. I am 25 years old, from a small town in Ontario Canada. I am a banker by day and country singer by night. I wish I could tell you that I have been singing all my life, I would probably stand a better chance of being chosen to compete on the Rising Star, but the truth is, I taught myself to play guitar 4 years ago , after a break up with a girl I thought was the love of my life and have been playing ever since. I didn’t know at the time how music and singing would change my life, but it has. I never thought people would like my songs, or my singing, but I realized I had talent I never knew I had once I started singing. People would say the nicest and encouraging things about my talent, it humbled me. I work at the Royal Bank of Canada as a financial representative, and write and sing country songs every other waking moment. I sing at local pubs in our small Ontario community. I am pretty shy so it took me a while to get the courage to sing in public. The first time I was hired to sing at a local pub, I had to drive around the block 5 times before I could get the courage to go in. Now it is 4 years later, and I am still humbled by the audience’s reaction when I sing. I don’t think I’m special, but I think you will be pleasantly surprised if you give me an opportunity to sing for you and show you my talent. I am just a small town boy, with a talent I didn’t know I had, and would love to see if a bigger audience then my small town would like my singing. Thank you for considering me.

I never thought people would like my songs, or my singing, but I realized I had talent I never new I had once I started singing, and people would say the nicest things to me about my talent, it humbled me. I work at the Royal Bank of Canada as a financial representative, and write and sing country songs, every other waking moment. I sing at local pubs in our small Ontario community . I am pretty shy so It took me a while to get the courage to sing in public. The first time I was hired to sing at a pub, I had to drive around the block 5 times before I could get the courage to go in. Now it’s 4 years later, and I am still humbled by the audience’s reaction when I sing. I don’t think I’m special, but I think you will be pleasantly surprised if you give me an opportunity to sing for you and show you my talent. I am just a small town boy, with a talent I didn’t know I had, and would love to see if a bigger audience then my small town would like my singing. Thankyou for considering me, Justin Remeikis 0 Reply August 8, 2014
Sarah Ann McCauleyHello all 🙂 Writing in hope of a chance to audition for Rising Star! This would be an absolute dream come true. I am 25 years old and I have been singing all my life and love the power that music has over people. One song can touch a person in a way many people couldn’t. I am very passionate about music and have always wanted to make my family and friends proud (they constantly pressure me to get out there and audition & time and money have not allowed me to do so). I am currently out of work and in the interim was looking to follow my one true passion- music. I have the talent, determination, appearance, drive, and patience to make it. I am a good hearted person who loves to help others and I believe I can do that through music. If given the opportunity, I know you wouldn’t be let down. My soundcloud page is Soundcloud.com/Sarah-A-McCauley and youtube simply do a name search as I have a couple pages youtube.com/SarahAnnMcCauley being one of them. Thank you so much for your time and consideration, 0 Reply August 5, 2014

Kira CrissingerNot only do I sing, but I also play the piano and the guitar. I perform all around where I live and it is what I want to do for a long, long time. I have worked hard to get where I am at now at the age of 16. I do radio performances, sang for a tv station, and performed many times on a stage that people like Bon Jovi have recently performed on. I will also soon be singing on national television for the little league World Series. I would love to have a chance to show the world what I can do and I promise I won’t let you down. Thank you 0 Reply August 3, 2014

Tamika GrinnellHi, my name is Tamika Grinnell. Singing has always been my comfort. It helps me get through every day pain. I feel with a little development I have what it takes to be the next upcoming artist. I feel I has an excellent voice. All I need is the chance for someone to meet me half way. I have song at funerals, and weddings. I just wanna share with the world what we all go through in every day life through music. For each and everyone of us has a similar story to tell. I feel the best way to express it is through the soul of music. I been singing since I was a little girl. I sing in the bathroom, while cooking and cleaning. I sing in my car, my basement. Anywhere I can let it flow. All I’m waiting on is an open door to get started. 0 Reply August 3, 2014
Tim BrooksTim Brooks the miracle man that also sings. I am probably the most interesting and unique story of why I think I (Tim Brooks) am your man. The reason is simple my voice has new new life since I had open heart surgery to replace my aortic valve. I have always been Blessed with good pipes and could wow a crowd. Now for the first time I can really push my voice and it is strong and clear and has really great range. The voice lessons I took with Mary Beck 30 years ago have served me well. My teacher put a few students in the Met and other huge venues. I offer my YouTube page But I need an audition to show your team I have what it takes. I really practice all the time because I know I deserve a shot and I feel like it is my job to keep my voice ready. Please give a 50 year old a chance to show you his gift. The Doctors could get props too! They do miracles on so many people and I am living proof and a special singing miracle man. I am 10 months post -op and feel awesome. 0 Reply August 1, 2014

Kelley A. BuchananI am writing to you today in hopes for a chance to audition for Rising Star. I have been singing since I was about three years old and love to sing. I started singing in church, which I continue to do as well as singing for weddings, funerals and the Bear Hunters pig pickin’. Yeah I know sounds hillbilly as can be. lol But that’s the place (Tazewell, Va.) I’m from, country as can be. I worked for the Virginia Department of Corrections for 9 years and 11 months, wanted a career change and left. I have Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice and a long list of certifications and certified training. Singing is my dream I love to sing and to see the smiles on people’s faces. Never have I took money for singing, I just have enjoyed the opportunities to make people feel good and have a great time. I am a very out going person and will do everything in my power (and with God’s help) to achieve my goals. Let me give you an example, a page from my life; I worked full time for the prison had a baby who was 15 months old when I went back to college.I also volunteered at the District 43 Probation and parole office during this time. Two years later when my baby girl was three I graduated from Bluefield College with a 3.4 gpa. I am not telling you this to because of pride it’s because I want people to know that you truly can do anything if you put your mind to it and use peoples negativity as motivation to accomplish your dreams. I also want to show you how seriously I take my dreams, goals and the steps needed to achieve them.Thank you and God bless you all, Kelley 0 Reply July 27, 2014
jackie ricoyhi, I’m jackie. I’m 15. I’ve never sung in front of a lot of people. I’ve always imagined what it was to sing in front of a stage with tons of people.To feel like you’re making people’s dreams come true just by doing what you love to do. I’m usually really shy with my singing talent, mostly because i was afraid to get rejected, but I’m sure i’m ready now. please give me a chance to make my dream come true. 0 Reply July 25, 2014
