    I won’t type out a large paragraph to tell you exactly why I belong on Rising Star. I will however, say that I love singing more than anything in the entire world. I live and breathe music, and it is bursting from the core of my being.
    My parents don’t want me to pursue music in college because it’s a tough business to make it, so if you were to give me ONE chance–one audition to prove myself, it would give me the opportunity to pursue what I truly love.
    Please give me an audition and help me pursue my dreams

  2. Lexi St George

    Please check out Lexi St George on YOUTUBE – Lexi won a contest with GOOD MORNING AMERICA in 2011 – NEXT NEW POPSTAR at the age of 14. She is now 17 and simply amazing. She lost her father to ALS aka Lou Gehrigs Disease in 2012 and is being raised by a struggling single mom. She is not only gorgeous on the outside but gorgeous on the inside as well. Lexi has been singing since the age of 3 and lives in a small rural town outside of los angeles Palmdale, CA – This amazing talented girl needs a break and we are hoping this is the miracle we have been praying for.

  7. Caroline Dazo

    Full name: Caroline Dazo
    Age: 18
    Weight: 113 pounds
    Height: 5’3
    Ethnicity: Filipina
    Full-time student at a Cal State University

    I’ve been singing since I was 8 years old, I had started taking lessons at 9 years old and have performed in small concerts. I auditioned for my first singing competition at 13 years old and won first place, tried auditioning for America’s Got Talent and The Voice. I really wanted to sing and I want to be able to sing music that can touch people’s hearts everywhere… Honestly, I’ve been pushed down and been bullied so I want to be able to stand up to those people and express through singing “that no matter how much you hurt me, I will be able to perform in front of hundreds of people and still sing my heart out with my heart on my sleeve.” I believe that no matter how many times people bad mouth me or tell me not to sing, I still want to show that I am good and I can do it and make it anywhere if I am able to express the feeling that I can definitely stand up no matter how many times they trip me, push me, or laugh at me. So, being able to have the opportunity to be able to at least audition for this would be absolutely amazing..

  8. Lidiya

    Hello, my name is Lidiya I am 27 years old, I am singing since I was a baby. Singing is not just something I can and I like to do, singing is a way of life. You can’t just go out there dance, sing you song, FIRST you have to feel it, you have to experienced the song, understand the message and make the listening understandable for the audience. It’s not all about “I like the stage” yes, it’s important, but if the stage doesn’t like you that’s a problem. I am a Balkan Music singer, I sing songs from Greece , Bulgaria, Serbia, Macedonia, if I have the chance I will show how great and touchy a Balkan Song can sound.

  9. Krissy Watson

    Obviously I dream of being the next vocal sensation!!! 😉 I would greatly appreciate an opportunity to perform on your show. It’s been a life long dream of mine to become a singer, no matter what it is really. I feel like I should be doing something with it instead of wasting it away & giving up on something I can’t go a day without thinking about. Singing is my passion & all I ask is an opportunity to prove that I do have what it takes. I believe I have the potential, I’m creative, open-minded, flexible, teachable & ready to go to receive any advice and guidance along the way. I cried when I moved to California because there’s an inescapable urge to hopefully one day have the chance to live my passion. I am a strong believer that anything CAN happen! Thank you for taking the time to read this & all I dream is an opportunity to make a dream a reality.

  12. Barbara Harley

    I am a 57 year old woman who has been singing, writing and playing music most of my life. I’ve been in and out of cover bands and original bands. My day gig is teaching elementary school kids music in a public school. I’ve more than “paid my dues” but never got that so-called “lucky break.” This might be my last ditch effort to become “validated” as a professional singer/songwriter. It would be nice to be recognized for my talents by more than just a local crowd. Thank you for your consideration.

  14. Hailey

    Hello my name is Hailey. I am fourteen years old. I have always had a strong passion for music. I have been singing since I was young. Many people have told me I sound like Whitney Houston, and I have had a lot of experience with singing. I sing the national anthem at all my cheer tournaments and at other games. My first time singing in a real audience I was in second grade. I soon realized that I had a real passion for singing as soon as I hit the stage I feel like a DIVA. I play in the band and I just have such a passion for music. I will always and will never stop trying, and music will never die it will forever live in my heart.
    Yea so music is me ✌️✌️✌️✌️PEASE

  17. Savannah Rachelle Morris

    I would absolutely love, love, love to be a part of the Rising star show! I promise you if you put me on the show there will be no shame. My name is Savannah Rachelle Morris. I am 13 years old and turning 14 in 25 days. (June 2nd) But besides that I am a girl in a small town of Ohio. I am extremely competitive. I am slim and curvy on the hips. I am 5’3.Blonde hair. Multicolored eyes that are greenish blue with hazel around my pupil. I am currently in 7th grade. I have a shunt placement from as I was a baby I had a busted ventricle on my brain. The only problem it causes is migraines. That health problem is why I can’t fulfill my dream to help people in the military. I have my full life planned out. I want to go into collage get a composers degree. Become a famous singer and composer. I play piano. I sing at soprano level one by the end of this school year I will have been and competed in 8 choir things. So yeah I’m in love with music. I am willing anything. I’d love to work with the cast if possible. I would also love to do this to make my mom proud I don’t see her as much as I used too considering she works a night shift. She has since my dad left so yeah.. If you need to see what I look like you can look up my Facebook, twitter, instagram, vine I post just about every week, If I don’t I’m probably busy babysitting my nephew or studying for upcoming tests. I screw up a lot in life but who hasn’t? No one is perfect enough to judge except God himself. I will be MY best! If I’m not the one its okay because there’s always another to try. Thank you! (:

  18. Auburn Perry

    My name’s Auburn, I’m 21 years old and have been singing since the age of 2. I’d always dreamt of being a singer but was scared of getting my dreams crushed; now that I’m a little older I’ve come to realize that fear shouldn’t be a reason to NOT do singing. When people hear me sing, they get the most shocked expression on their face due to my calm, quiet manner. I become a different person on stage, my entire life has been lived through music and my father who is a singer himself. I don’t want to spend the rest of my life in doubt wondering ‘what if?’ anymore, it’s time to get out there and go for it! I hope to hear from you soon, thank you.

  26. Rachel

    Hello there my name is Rachel, and in my mere 20 years of life I have had a very dark past but I turn to singing to help me cope and escape from my demons. Despite everything that has happened I try to stay positive and optimistic. Most people wouldn’t expect I have been through so much because I seem very happy on the outside. I turn all of my anger and frustration into my singing and it somehow transports me to a better place where I am able to be at peace. I love to rock out to classic rock songs by Stevie Nicks or Joan Jet(Not to toot my own horn but I can sing ‘Edge of Seventeen’ as good as Stevie herself) I can even sing any Katy Perry pop song. I am very versatile and I am 100% sure I can blow you away with my singing abilities if you give me the chance to prove myself to you!
    Singing is my ultimate passion!!! I tired to pursue my dream after I graduated high school but I decided to follow my grandmothers advice and enroll in college. Now because the area I live in is too expensive I cannot stay and finish college.So I have to move up to Northern California to live with my fiancés mother until I can get on my feet again, but this time I am not going to pursue my grandma’s dream. I am going to pursue mine! So help me make my dream come true, I will make sure you do not regret it!

  29. Sara A. Clayton

    Hi! My name is Sara Clayton. I’m sixteen years old and I live in Vienna, Virginia close to D.C. Rising Star seems like it could be more intense, a combination of American Idol and The Voice. Suspenseful and constructively critical at the same time. I would be happy to be a part of it.

    I grew up on a military base in Seoul, South Korea and was really sheltered from the media (other than movies and cartoons), but I’ve loved singing all my life. I was inspired by my mamma singing to me, especially lullabies, when I was little, and I sang because I wanted to be like her. I also grew up not knowing much of my identity. I grew up thinking I was just Asian, a majority, but I found out in my middle school years that I was an interracial minority, a Blasian (Black and Asian), and the history behind it. It completely changed my simple perspective on singing, and I started to experiment with my voice a little more, adding feeling and passion while connecting to the lyrics. Up until today, I have never shared my singing outside of my family, friends, or church.

    I think I’m right for the show because not only do I believe I have vocal talent to bring to the screen, but I believe that I can learn a lot from the experience and from my competitors.

    Thank you so much for your attention and consideration!

  30. Christian Pasillas

    Hi, my name is Christian Pasillas, I’m 25 years old and live California in a small town called Riverbank. I know I’d be a great contestant for ABC’s the Rising Star. I’m an aspiring singer and have sang all my life with my family in my church choir.
    I’ve taken a couple years of voice lessons to better my voice. I placed 2nd, with in my age group, in the National Association of Teachers of Singing (NATS) competition this year. I have also auditioned for American Idol and was approved to move on to the semi-finals for the people that had made it to the main show.
    I always take advantage of any opportunity there is to sing infront of large groups. Whether it be with string quartets, mariachi, bands, guitar trios, or acapella. I’ve been asked to sing the National Anthem for the graduation ceremony for Modesto Junior College. I’m really outgoing, play the guitar and experiment with other instruments, I’m ambitious for excellence, write songs and like to experiment with making music on the computer.
    I know I would be a great candidate for this show just because I know how it is to sing infront of large audiences and also because of my ability to deliver to the fullest. I am confident in everything I do and like I said before I am ambitious for excellence. I would be proud to be apart of The Rising Star if selected .

    Thank You, Christian “Apollo” Pasillas

  31. Krysta Siciunas

    Hello to all!
    I am a 31 year old mother of 3 that has had a passion for singing all my life. Thing is, when I am in a crowd or in front of an audience, I get choked up and jittery… I know I have what it takes voice wise and have been told by numerous people that have caught me singing when I thought there was no one there. I would love to show what I have to offer, but need some guidance on how to get rid of the nervousness… I promise, you will like what you hear 🙂

  35. Sophia L.

    Hey! I am an experienced vocalist who has auditioned for singing competitions before with no luck! My experience lies in background and studio session singing. I am also a performer and love being on stage. I’m very animated on stage so I’ve been told but it’s difficult to minimize my personality especially in front of a crowd. I love to write songs as well. I was hired by a gym owner to cover songs for people to work out to! Lol, hilarious but I loved every minute of that experience and he uses that music to this day! Anyway, I would love to be apart of this competition so please contact me with some audition info. Thanks!

    Dear Producers,

    My name is Cassie Champion, I’m a sassy 20 y/o weirdo from Texas annnnd I’m not going to bore you with a long paragraph of why you should pick me. I’m TELLING you pick me because I CAN sing.

  72. Madison Gollan

    Hi. I’m Madison. I am 12 years old and think I have what it takes to be in the big league. I live in Appling, Georgia. I like singing, writing, drawing, reading, hiking, animals, and the stars. The physical and burning ones. I have had a little bit of vocal training when I was young, but I practice every day.

    I really think I have a shot! Even if you say no to me, I won’t be angry or heartbroken. I’d just shrug it off cause I’m not in this for fame. (Okay. Maybe a little) I’m in it for fun! I would get the chance of a lifetime if you accepted me. My friends are not the jealous type and I think they would tell me to try anyway. So, email me if I’m accepted or not. Its all good if I’m not.
    byeeeee-
    Madison :p

    My name is Shana im 28 yrs old
    My mom has told me before I could talk I could sing. Sometimes my voice is so beautiful I thank god for choosing me to have this gift. I can’t imagine what I would be like as a person if I could not sing. I sing allday every day. I’ve been through so many trials & tribulations I know. That something great is in store for me. When my brother died almost 5 yrs ago the only thing that would calm my spirit is me singing to myself.I love singing, I sing when im happy. Make music when. Im sad music is my pain killer, it’s the beat of my heart the love of my soul. I sing to my daughters all the time. the only way I can express myself. I would be honored for this opportunity.

Thank you for your time and happy hunting
