The rest are community theatre talent at best. Thats why they're in San Fran instead of NY or LA. I'm no rookie when it comes to the industry son. I know what I speak of. ACT is one of the top trainning programs in the country. Its also in San Fran. If the show you speak of is sooo impressive, how come not one of the cast members trained there? Thats what I thought.

I know this woman personally.

I've seen her SEVERAL times on National TV, not to mention, National Anthem's MANY times including the Giants world series games

She's done more in her professional career than you've done in your whole life......real talk



I also know Ledesi.
Ledesi was Miss Lubin's understudy, who has since gone on to be nominated for a grammy.....2008 grammy awards.




Val Diamond.

I've seen her and know she's done a shit load of work.




You should sit down son.....for real.

Pitiful.
Rookie's should be seen and not heard.

:roll:

Truth be told, I'm not a singer. So I could care fucking less about grammys and national anthems. I'm a professional actor. The people you named couldn't touch me from an acting standpoint. Not just talk son. Real shit. I would bury them and I have the credits to back it up. Not that I need them, but let me let you in on a little something. Credits are achieved thru opportunities. Opportunities are given for every reason but talent. Everyday the most talented person doesn't get the job.
Thats the kind of biz it is. So credits don't impress me. Try again.

Well I am a Musician guy.

I sing, dance, act and play.

The above mentioned people do as well.


Maybe if you train REAL hard,

You might get half as good as all of the above mentioned people.

:wink:

And do cabaret work? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA what a fucking joke. No thanks. I'll continue to do feature film and tv episodic work. Maybe if you focused on one thing, you might be ok at something.

I know thats what you meant, and that why I said what I had to say. You're not gonna find a trannie(especially a young one) that is willing to immerse themselves in the craft. Train as an actor for several years. Do off bway and regional theatre along with indie films while they're waiting for a break. THATS WHAT YOU CALL A LEVEL OF SERIOUSNESS. So no, at the standards and the level that I work on, there will never be a trannie. Regardless of what this joke of an industry does or what show they put them on. Their work will never meet what I call a level of seriousness.[/quote]

i actually know a girl who has done some off broadway work and was very successful in theatre.... to say trannies arent willing to do the work and hone their craft... r u kidding... fucking trannies spend years perfecting the craft of portraying women EVERY HOUR OF EVERYDAY ... why wouldnt they have the patience to do the same for their career.... dude thats dumb as fuck

I would like to hope for the best but I am a realist. I will just hope that she is able to parlay this exposure into some form of success in the rest of life.

my bet is that she will just raise her rates on eros once the shows not generating her any more business

Tyra has featured many ballroom figures and celebrities on her show.

Please, get a fucking clue. An impersanator and a professional actor are very different. But why should I expect more from you people. Entertainment has watered down and destroyed the purity of the craft. They make it appear that anyone can do it successfully. And you people buy it. And here I am talking to folks who never worked on bway or a major feature film. So there you have it.

I've only seen a couple of episodes, but Top Model is all about drama, and not the good kind. There's no way I can take that show seriously.

About two years ago I saw an episode where the contestants included a very pretty girl with long hair that was really beautiful. For me at least, Tyra threw away any of her remaining credibility by demanding that she cut her hair.

The way it's presented on that show at least, modeling puts superficiality on a pedestal.

As for the girl who's the subject of this thread, I'm in agreement with those who speculate that she was added to add more drama to the show, and that her involvement will have little positive effect on her career, whatever that may be.

hey fellahs

whos ready for a lil ban-hammer action?

i am!
