Starting Over Talk - Peer Coaching Support Site

Wheeew.... Thanks Serena, for the info. I'm glad to hear that she is still in the running. Now, maybe I'll tune again and give the show another shot. I really want to see her again. I only got to see her on the video feed on-line. I'm sure the sound would be even better on my large screen tv.

Yeah, I do think the 14 yr. old was talented, but does need some more time to mature, etc. But she has a wonderful singing future IMO.

The 11 yr. old............I can't WAIT to see on the show again!! I like the Miller's too!!!

So looks like Bianca Ryan is up on the next show. I'm totally curious about what material she chooses for this show. I know it's gotta be a strong piece again, but they'll be looking for her to show off some diversity in her material. Something operatic would be cool - maybe one of the pieces Sarah Brightman popularized?

Too bad about Natasha Le. She's a real talent, but she's very young and definitely not ready for all this yet. They kinda forgot that other prodigies often played original pieces (hides the boo-boos pretty effectively). She made piles of mistakes doing the Toccata tonight, on top of all the mistakes in the first two performances. She's still going to to be great one day, if her stage mama doesn't get in the way and ruin her. Agree about the 14 year-old. She's got real good stuff, but she's not quite strong enough yet.

That's the way I'm looking at them - lots of kids, and they're fantastic. Some of them are really going places. But in the end, I try to think about whether that same performance would have rocked my socks even if a top adult pro had brought it.

The show is on now... and I think it's already been on an hour. I don't usually watch it but thought I'd try to catch the young phenom if possible. Just saw a preview before a commercial break and looks like she's coming up sometime before the show ends tonight. I'll stay tuned!

They just showed some phenomenal illusionist!

Wouldn't you know it? She was the very next act! I was scratching my head and didn't know if it was my ears or not..(I have hearing issues anyway!)... But I was surprised too with her song selection.. So I was glad that the judges sort of went the same way..

One thing that really impressed me.. Even in the face of the criticism, she received it very well and was gracious. I think that will serve her very well in that she doesn't appear to rattle easily. I wish they hadn't made such an issue of her clothing..

The stilts world should try out for the circus pretty sure they would most fit in there.
MY BAD.
