    I am writing this because I always lose my passion, as it hasn’t taken me anywhere. I am extremely modest and I feel that it’s what has held me back. I think being on this show would let me accept and be proud of my talents. I do vocal impressions of Xtina, Jewel, Macy Gray, and Carrie Underwood. My voice in my own songs, however, always varies depending on what song it is. I want to do this show to find an identity of my own. I want to start only doing ‘impressions’ of myself.

    When I remember my passion, and tune into it, it overwhelms me. I am so passionate about music that its hard to handle sometimes. When I think of performing on a stage, it send chills down my body.

    This is not as much about the reaction from the audience, as it is about opening up and sharing something so extremely personal and emotional with other people. And if they like it, that is a huge plus.

    I want to be a part of this show so maybe I can gain some of the confidence and talent as its mentors and producer. I think I really do have what it takes, I just need to learn to own it.

    I would love nothing more than to be a part of this show. Please consider me.

    Thank you!

  5. Rich Hennessy

    My name is Richard Hennessy. I’m 22 years old from Carteret, NJ. Well, my hometown is Carteret, NJ. The current city that I reside in is Sewaren, NJ because about 8 months ago my house caught fire damaging mostly everything that my family and I owned. We had to relocate due to the destruction the fire caused. Many people from Carteret came to our aid in such a difficult time and we are much appreciative of all of their assistance during such a traumatic time. But what has really gotten me through these tough times was my passion for singing.. It has been my avenue to de-stress and forget the struggles that my family and I have gone through. I started my younger years off as full-blown athlete never really expressing my musical side. It wasn’t until my freshman year in high school where I stepped out of my comfort zone and instead of trying out for the basketball team, I auditioned for the school musical. It changed my life. I discovered my passion was music and singing.. Sending me forward to take vocal lessons and become even more involved with musical theater just so I can have an outlet to release this music inside of me. Recently, since the fire I have found myself managing the rebuilding of my house and other obstacles keeping me from pursuing my dream. Many people around believe that this is just a hobby for me, but deep down, I know this is much more than that. I’m ready to share with the world my passion and artistry. Please help live my dream and become the star that I know is kindling inside of me.. Thank you.

  7. Jonathan Simms

    Hello Reader! I’m John! I feel as thought its my time to break into the reality industry. Outside of my singing talents I feel as though I’m a well rounded star! The personality, the face, the spirit, the humbleness and grace is a package that I have! A hard life filled with abandonment has encouraged me to become a “risk taker”… I refuse to live life on the safe side not really experiencing life due to pass issues… At the fair age of 21 I’ve been homeless, abandoned, attacked, I’ve packed my bags and moved to Miami, and started to live! Also I’d like to share my love for Jesus with the world because with our current popular stars, he’s become somewhat of a myth or a had been and my JESUS is the complete opposite! I’m not the crazy, hypocritical Christian… I’m a real Christian with real stories and struggles but above all real faith! I’m 5’11, African American, Native Washingtonian! Well, Washington DC that is! My goal is not only for myself but for the world and my community! I feel like I’m different and that’s what the world needs! Not the same weed smoker, naked raunchy “actors” but truly tasteful and talented individuals like Brandy, Anita Baker, Kirk Franklin, etc. real people, with real stories and struggles and real talent! I hope I’m considered! I’d give great tv lol

  15. Yoandy AslanRamirez

    Ok, so this reply is not for me. Im writing in reference to my fiance, Akeber Bulding. Her passion for singing is uncomparable. She is 23 years old, mother of our beautiful 2 year old, Kaylee. My fiance sings at all times and she has an amazing voice. Ever heard someone singing and it was so good and you can feel the emotion so much, that it gives goosebumps?…well thats her! Whether in English or Spanish, Fiance will surely make anyone and everyone fall with just one song. Shes simply amazing, and she does so much for this family, for her friends, that i feel its only fair that I do something special for her and submit her for this. I feel she truely has talent, and would love for the world to see it. She sings at all times. When shes sad, happy, nervous, bored, anxious…its like a replex in her…and escape from all else going on.
    So please, consider her…I assure you, the world will be blown away.

    hope to hear from you soon.

  17. Daniel Robert Greene

    My name is Daniel Green and I will be 32 this upcoming May. I have had solos since I could walk and was in show choirs and musicals all through High School. When I was trying to figure out what I should do with my life my father told me “You are a great singer but out of 1,000 singers only a few can make a living doing it!”

    So I went to Columbia College Chicago for radio and hosted a few morning shows until the recession hit. At that time I fell into a dispatching/router position and have made a decent living for the past few years. Meanwhile I have continued to sing at open mic nights, karaoke, and everywhere I went people kept asking me what band I was in. I would always say that because of my crazy schedule I never had the time to pursue a band (my dream).

    I think this show would be the perfect way for someone to actually see and hear who I am. Age isn’t on my side but if I never try I will always wonder “What if!”

  23. Ty

    Hi. My name is Ty, I am 15, and I feel at peace when I sing. I am a tenor and would love to study classical vocal in college. I have had a rough year and I hope this may be the opportunity to regain some joy and confidence in myself. I just returned from my 6th trip to Shriners Hospital. I had surgery there to reconstruct my right leg. Between 6th and 7th grade my leg started turning and eventually ended up being 70 degrees rotated out. After seeing 5 different doctors in Tulsa with different ideas of what was wrong, I found the most awesome Surgeon at Shriners. I had surgery on May 6th of 2012 and spent last summer in a wheelchair, then a walker, to a cane, to finally walking on my own by the end of July. Following that ordeal, I suffered severe anxiety attacks. I am doing virtual school now and am finally back to feeling like myself. A kid with ADHD, Anxiety Disorder, but I’m me. God blessed me with the ability to sing and people are shocked to hear my voice. Please contact me.

  33. Destiny

    Hello, im destiny and im almost 14 years old. i have dark brown hair and eyes. my family and i had originally lived in MI, but we recently moved to GA. im an 8th grader at middle school. i have my mom, dad, sister, and two brothers- one of which, has a mild heart condition.
    The reason i would like to be put on this show is because of my love for singing and music. also the fact that it would be the first time someones cared enough to give me a shot at my dream. the thigs i want to do with my life are to either be an artist, singer or an author. if i had the money to travle to this audition i would go, but we dont have the money. i would hope people could come to my school or something. i dont write songs because i can never get the lyrics OR the rythem to it. i love to sing though. my friends think im good but im not so sure. i have self confidense issues, as you can see. i dont have any idea about what would happen if i win (or even made it to the show), but if i did, id use my winnings to help my school and my family. im an ammature so i wouldnt know what to do. i have depression problems from time to time and it sometimes effects the stuff i sing. like i could go from pop to screamo. just depends. like i said, i dont expect to make it to the show, i just hope i do.

  34. Destiny

    hello, im destiny. im almost 14 and i have dark brown hair and eyes. im origionallt from michigan but recently my familys relocated to Georgia. i go to Middle school and im in the eighth grade. i have my mom, dad, sister and two little brothers- one of which has a heart condition since he was born.
    the reason i would love to be on this show is to at least know someone cares enough to give me a shot. i dont have to win, but if i do, that would be amazing. all my life ive wanted to be a singer or and artist or an author, even. i dont think id be able to send in a video audition because every time im on a phne or laptop camera, i sound awful. some of my friends say that im really good but i dont sing much at school anyways. if i do win, id use some of the money (or whatever the prise is) to help my family. and my school. ive always had self confidense problems so i wouldnt be surprised if i dont get picked to even be on the shpw. i just hope i can get a chance. thank you for your time

  35. Jack Underwood

    I have always wished of a change like this, but Never had the money to travel. I’ve been in local level singing competitions and school competitions all my life and was even in the paper for singing. I’ve been singing in my church since I was five and I can play the piano. I’m from Jacksonville FL and would do anything for a chance like this.

  36. Abby Walters

    To most, I’m just Abby. However to myself, I feel like I’m ready to be more. I have many things that I keep private, and singing has been one of them. Probably the biggest. I know without a doubt that I can do it, and do it well but I’ve felt lost for a long time. I do not want my voice to become lost as well. I did the kill myself with love thing, the college thing, the get sick with Grave’s disease thing, the healing thing, the Europe thing and now the working class thing…and this rut can’t be the only thing that I am made of. It’s now or never and I’m going to explore any and every possibility that I can to see if I can make something of it. I want my neighbors to know who I am!

  37. Erika Rieke

    Hello…my name is Erika, I have been singing since I was 5. My dad would play the guitar and he would teach my brother and I all sorts of songs. I was born in Olympia, WA. I grew up listening to Elvis Presley, Johny Cash, and Patsy Cline. My heart and passion has always been through music. When I was 9 I would practice my vibratto since I didn’t know how. Then from age 11 to 12 I would sing karaoke at the mall. I knew I loved singing and being on stage but never had enough confidence in myself to think I could actually pursue my dream of becoming a music artist.

    Throughout junior high and high school I was always the shy awkard girl. My favorite class was choir. I would completely come out of my shell and I would visit with people before we would sing. I ended up trying out for a solo my junior year and I was so excited I got it! I went home telling my dad and my sisters and then the next day my music teacher told me she had to give it to a senior because of seniority. I was so sad and hurt I didn’t think it was fair. What can you do though right, lifes not fair. I got over it.

    Five years after HS I met my future husband, Greg He is the love of my life. I worked for the state as a intern as an office assistant. I ended up pregnant and had a baby boy and then applied as there receptionist. Long story short I got the job! Then a year later was bumped out of my position due to budget cuts. I went on four job interviews after leaving the state. I didn’t get hired. I turned to music to focus on having that accomplishment of working hard and achieving my goals, it kept me from not being depressed. I went online and started singing on myspacekaraoke, then karaokechannel, and currently started on Singsnap so I can meet new people and sing duets with them for fun! My amazing husband pays for my music I post online. I just had my second child on Dec 5. His name is Noah, and my 5 year olds name is William they are the world to me.

    Thank you for your time and consideration!
    God bless…Erika

  38. Devonne Miranda Trikoff

    My name is Devonne Miranda Trikoff,
    I am a twenty-six year old woman. I currently live in Washington.
    Although my life story is both disturbing and touching… I feel I have something to share with the world! Not just my passion for music or the emotional outlet it provides, but to truly encourage others through my experience to love themselves, to believe in themselves , and how positive perspectives can change just about anything!! If we can learn to grow from both good & bad experiences & apply ourselves!I not longer preform out the fear of failure but I now have expectations to succeed!
    I have also studied the statistics of people in America coming out of dysfunctional homes… which is over half of our population! Remaining a victim of these circumstances is all too unfortunate, when all we truly want as humans in life is to be loved & accepted. I want to reach out to others through my music & heart , not to seek my own self-glorification, but to help others find what qualifications, abilities, and talents they possess no matter who you are, or where you come from!
    I may not be proud of all of the choices I have made, but I am a better person because of it!
    Thank you so much for your time and consideration!
    Sincerely, Devonne Miranda Trikoff

  44. Megan Noel

    I will start out saying my name is Megan Noel I am 24 years old and I have been singing since I was 3. My mom has videos of me with a fisher price mic singing and dancing to Prince and Wilson Phillips how far apart is that !! haha. I love singing and music in general. I love ever genre of music . I would not say I sound like anyone person I am just me. I have had a wonderful life up until about two years ago. When I got married to a guy who was verbally abusive.and completely broke my spirt and I am now going through a divorce. We have a 18 month old daughter who is my whole world.This is not a sympathy story. I have learned through the help of my family and friends that I am strong and should pursue my love of singing. I am doing this for me and for my daughter. I wll say I think I have talent. I think I am good. I will never say I am the best because I don’t care who you are you always have room to grow and learn and become better. And I would love to have the chance to see if people besides my family and friends think I have what it takes to make it in something I have always loved and wanted to do

  45. Ashley Hopper

    Hi, my name is Ashley, I am 25 years old from a small town in northern Illinois. I have had the dream of becoming a singer for as long as I can remember but never really had the courage to go for my dream. Now that I am getting older I am realizing that you should always follow you dream no matter what age you are. I am not your typical looking idol I’m 5’3 and I will just say that I am not 120 lbs. I’m as white as can be with brown hair and brown eyes. I really don’t think that your look should really matter it should be about your talent and what you can bring to the public. I feel that I can with stand the trials that can be thrown at me because I have lived and been through hardships. If am picked to be on this show I will try to be a good role model for the people that will be watching.

    Thank you,
    Ashley

  53. Nicole Fitzgerald Phillips

    Hello! My name is Nicole Fitzgerald Phillips, I am a writer and singer who more importantly is a thirty year old engaged mother of two girls. I been leading a secret life dreaming of preforming, writing and singing. I am a woman who has overcome every obstacle life has thrown me, not that it has always been done gracefully, but nonetheless we have survived and continue to thrive. I had the typical highschool experience, friends, sports, chorus and strong academics until October of my junior year. I was 16 and found out that I was pregnant. I decided to keep the baby and ditch the guy! KayLeigh, who will soon be 13, is the joy of my life, a life that now had forever changed course. I graduated highschool with honors and attended a local college. My father, who was my rock, then went through a lfe threatening battle with cancer soon after. During his treatment I got engaged and pregnant again by the time I was twenty I had two girls, was married, and finding out that the man I married had a serious addiction to drugs and alcohol. I left him to protect my children. Now 22 I was a single mom and had to make ends meet. Work and life took a very different path than what I had once dreamed of, but hey, that’s life! Now, I am 30, driving to my oldest to softball, basketball, or volleyball practices and games and my youngest to vocal, art, and talent competitions. I was not perfect, I didn’t do it all correct but I have always put my children first. It is a wonderful life to be KayLeigh & Khloe’s mon but It would be nice to be Nicole! This show is an awesome opportunity to have to best of both! What an incredible idea! I would be honored to be chosen. Thank you and be Blessed!

  57. Danarian

    Of all the emerging stars currently lighting up the music industry, few shine as bright as emerging teen sensation, Danarian Taylor AKA Danarian.

    With a voice mature beyond his years, dancing skills that homage Michael Jackson, and an impressive performance resume, Danarian is a rare talent.

    Danarian showed a high aptitude for the performing arts at an early age and instead of enrolling him into a standard high school, his parents set up an audition at the prestigious Duke Ellington School of the Arts, where Danarian was accepted.

    A workaholic, Danarian quickly excelled, becoming one of the most highly touted students in the school’s dance program, maintaining a rigorous rehearsal and performance schedule, both in and outside of the school.

    In 2009, Danarian took up an interest in singing and convinced his father/manager, Reginald “Big Hitz” Taylor, to introduce him to local songwriters and producers.

    Within one month, Danarian wrote and recorded his first song, exhibiting the same raw talent and relentless work ethic he had for dancing and performing. Since that time has written and recorded dozens of songs, while racking up an impressive string of contest/showcase victories and vocal performances, including:

    Winner: Big Dream Hustle Hard Showcase (Miami, FL)
    Winner: Extreme Teen Dance Competition (DC)
    Winner: Black College Expo Tour Dance Competition (DC, NYC and ATL)
    Winner: International Association of Blacks & Dance (Toronto, Canada)
    Winner: IABD Competition (Philadelphia)
    Performed for First Lady, Michelle Obama (Duke Ellington)
    Performed @ The Smokey Robinson Festival (Kennedy Center, DC)
    Performed @ The atlas theater INTERSECTIONS art festival

    Now ready to take his act to the world stage, Danarian is finishing work on an EP, laying the groundwork for an R&B/pop mixtape and prepping a music video.
    INFLUENCES: Michael Jackson, John Legend, Marvin Gaye, Usher, Tank

  58. Ashley V.

    I may not have been the one who has been singing since I was young but I know that it’s all I want to do now. My mom had told me that I always had music in me but I didn’t foresee it to be a passion of mine. In middle school my mom put me in this summer program that taught the kids that went about sea life and then they took us to sea world shortly after. At that point I felt that my dream was lying somewhere between the lines of marine and aquatic life. I had chose what I wanted to be: a marine biologist! When I entered my high school life I had taken dance for my fine arts credit to graduate and then began discovering that I had a hidden talent that no one knew let alone did I know myself. So I had decided to go further into what I was able to do and ended up in quite a few theater productions. After sophmore year had started I was in drama classes and got put in the schools play . I had also teamed up with one of my friends from freshman year and we both got together and created a dance team for our newly built school.but of course my grades were not perfect so they told me I couldn’t dance for them. But that didn’t stop me from dancing. I then made a crew for those who didn’t make the dance team and no matter how good they were at dancing our how bad they were at doing their thang I wanted them to feel like they could do anything. I also started to think what else I could do. While I was in my 9th grade dance class this girl taught me how to party leona lewis’ better in time on piano and after I got used to it I thought I would add the lyrics but I told myself that I couldn’t do it because I can’t sing. For christmas of 2011 I got a keyboard and practiced with the lyrics while I played and realized I found another talent inside of me . My mom and her fiance own their own karaoke biz so they go all around the city to play and to sing for the people that like to hear them sing (theyre really good) well I went to some of their shows and the people were telling my mom.to put me on american idol or something like that and told me that I have to go on american idol. Well after that day I told myself if I believe then I can achieve.

  59. Brittney-moenae

    Hello! My name is Brittney-moenae and i would absolutely LOVE if The Star Next Door would come to Los Angeles and give me a chance to make all my dreams come true. I’ve been singing since i was 7 years old and since then, I’ve fallen even deeper in love with music. My dream is to become a professional recording artist and bring back the soul, the realness and the feeling artists like Diana Ross, En Vogue, and Anita Baker put into music. I’d also like The Star Next Door to come to La because I’m someone who is dedicated, eager to learn and ready to prove to the world that I’m a genuine artist with a passion for music. I want to make music that will bring the best out in everyone and I’m praying that The Star Next Door will help. If The Star Next Door came to my house, i would do my very best to show them that i am the star they’ve been searching for..
    Thank you and God bless

    Hello all,
    I am a 28 year old kid from Savannah, Ga who has been hoping for a show like this.I would love to be part of the The Star Next Door – The CW Casting Call because it would be a dream come true. I was in tears reading about the show because I just mentioned to some friends that I would love it if I could have an experience like this. I have been singing since I could talk and it is the love of my life. I have been told since I was a kid by many people that I should be out there and I feel that this show will help me to get out there. It would be an exciting event to meet you all. Thanks in advance for the consideration of you all coming to help me represent my hometown in The Star Next Door competition.

  63. Sandra Brothers

    Hi! Singing has always been my number one passion, as many others also. When I was very young, I used to hang microphones from my ceiling fan and sing for hours on a little 4 track cassette tape player and did so singing and dancing for sometimes 8 hours a day and didnt want to do anything else. As I got older, I realized that I have a really good voice so I joined a rock band, but quit very shortly after because I was afraid of being judged on stage. Soon after that I became very ill with something even doctors could not figure out and was mostly bed ridden for 4 years. In that time, all I had was my music. Every time I would sing a song sitting at my laptop, just to sing something, anything, I would cry and couldn’t even get through the song, thinking that I have lost all this time wasted on being sick I could have been making songs and become an inspiration to others. I haven’t had much opportunity come my way, and am too poor to record the songs I have written, but I go out to karaoke constantly hehe! I am well known locally for me singing very well everyone keeps telling me to get on a show, and some others tell me they want to promote me, so here I am! I would be so honnered to be considered for something like this. I’m emotional just thinking about the idea lol!! Music, and singing is and always has been my drug of choice. I’ve never even tasted alcohol ever! Music is my counsler, my muse, and I would love to be able to take my voice and use it to communicate through not just words, but feeling, on an inspirational level. Thanks for taking the time to read this!

  64. Devinee Cole

    Hello, my name is Devinee Cole. I would love for you guys to come out to VA. I am 16 years old and a senior in High School; I skipped the 10th grade. This gives me the chance to start my life with something I love. I am a singer and I come from a singing family. My dad is a songwriter and I happen to follow in his footsteps. I would just love it if I was given the opportunity to be mentored and to have the chance to make a dream come true.

    I would really love to be a contestant in this show. Music has always been my passion, my absolutely IN LOVE with music. My mom says I’ve been singing before I could talk and dancing before i could walk. I was that little girl you caught singing in the shower and knew all the lyrics to every song that cam eon the radio. I listen to all types of music and a large variety of artist from artist like Adele, Coldplay , Lana Del Rey, Bonnie Raitt to Rihanna, Drake, Kenrick Lamar, MJ … etc. I’m always writing songs and making beats just for the fun of it but I REALLY WANT TO BE HEARD and taken seriously about pursing my music career. It would make me the happiest person in the world if i got a chance to meet other artist how could possible give me advise on how a can advance.I truly believe that God has blessed me with talents that have yet to be discovered. I’ve been trying the best I can to get noticed by posting videos and registering for many talent auditions but honestly what I need someone with connections and a great reputation to give me a chance, to believe me as much as I believe myself, and to help make my dreams come true. I hope to become a voice of inspiration and someone whom people can look up to as an artist. I really hope you take me under strong consideration. Even if i don’t get a call back I just wanted to say that I really appreciate y’all giving people a chance for their voices to be heard.
    Sincerely,
    Arena Samson

  66. Natalia Averills

    HELLOOOO and HAKUNA MATATA!!,
    My name is Natalia and I have certainly made my way around life for just being 22. Since I was a little girl I grew up stating that I was going to be the next “Broadway Queen”. I participated in numerous theater shows and always was excited to share my gift with others. However, during my sophomore year of college I was heartbroken by hearing the events of the war. I felt that I needed to do something more than simply pray. So I made the decision to enlist into the army. After serving two years I was medically retired this past August 2012. However, instead of using this time to complain and through a pity party I have decided to change my name to “Musical Warrior” and pursue my dreams as a singer. Queen Latifah has been an inspiration to me because of her poise and genuine attitude through interviews. In my fantasy world I always saw her as my “mom”. Being on this show would be an honor and a huge stepping stone to becoming the “Musical Warrior” I have fought so hard to be.

  67. Grace

    Hello! I’m Grace and I’m 23. I would love to be given an opportunity of a lifetime. Since I was little, my dream has been to become a recording artist. Singing and acting are my passion & to be able to showcase what I love would be amazing. I strongly believe I’d be a great candidate for this opportunity. You can only imagine how great of a blessing this will be for not just me, but my family as well. Also, I will not disappoint. I hope to hear from you all soon. Thank you.

  72. Omarr Salgado

    To Whom it may concern,

    My name is Omarr Salgado I am 39 years of age 195lbs 6 feet 2″ but can easily pass for a young male in his late twenties or flip it to a more mature seasoned older male in his mid forties. Throughout my life I’ve been approached on several different occasions about the idea of acting. Partly because of my look and the company I keep. I am a seasoned musician, producer , song writer, artist. The many experiences I’ve encountered in my life good bad or indifferent allow me to adapt to most settings in life. I would like the opportunity to bring some of those real life experiences to the screen. I believe i can be a tremendous assets to your production bringing in a quality of high energy , motivation and focus. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

    Best Regards,

    OS

    I absolutely love to sing! Singing is one of my passion’s, it’s a part of everything I do. I wish that I had followed my passion a long time ago and pursued a career in music, but as a young lady, I was very shy. Now, as a mature adult, I’m willing to take more risk, in an effort to pursue a life long dream.
