I think the suddenly-famous teen sensations are about more than music, or even celebrity. I think what the industry is selling kids is something else: the idea that anyone, talented or otherwise, can become instantly famous, including them. In this day of 10,000 talent shows, I think that's a wish-fulfillment fantasy that can make a ton of money.

her first cd (1400 copies) was totally financed by her familly and was sold mostly thru ebay.

Her appearence on American and British talent shows was naturally to get exposure. She started singing at age 8, and by age 10 was singing professionally.

Now at 11, she has a cd, and it's selling very well.

I don't see any problem with promoting someone who is truely gifted.

i was watching this with my wife and it gave me goosebumps how amazing she is.


i dont give a fuck about anything except for her amazing voice. she could 115 years old, fat asian girl, her voice is what matters.
this one isn't about image like most other acts (and other talent shows), its about talent. period.

this is what i'm referring to:

Because it isn't socially acceptable for it to be about image yet. Give it a few years.

why the fuck does everyone do Nessun Dorma? choose another damn song for once.

edit- that and O mio babbino caro. i scrolled through the thread before even listening to the first video. great songs but there are others. I guess that's probably the only ones most Americans know though.

great voice for such a young girl though.

I honestly do not give a fuck until the little girl writes her own song and it's good. Otherwise fuck it.

Thats just not natural.. It kinda creeps me out. Theres no way that voice could come out of that little girl.


Its a shame she has to go on shitty reality tv talent shows to get exposure.
With the last name Evancho of course shes from the burgh

this year AGT semifinals were really good. Some really talented people got the exposure they needed.

yes it seems at least AGT has stepped it up a notch.

I liked Team I Luminate too, but you tube videos of them are crap.

this is absolute hogwash. I'm pretty sure Pavarotti never wrote his own music. These people are not song writers, they are vocalists.

yeah yeah yeah we all know you can write, Sir-Ex. the opera writers need singers to perform the work they write. you really think Puccini or Wagner sang their own songs?
