The biz !!!

So why is it so hard to be a performer ?? Is it not like any other profession ??? You never hear anyone giving out about all the people aspiring to be accountants, yet there seems to be something wrong with wanting to perform. But its not our fault ?? If you wanted to be a science student the whole world would immediately support you praising your good choices. I think it perhaps must, like most problems, be Hollywood’s fault. Many people who say they want to be “performers” actually want to be famous. They have no interest in inspiring people and they have no aspirations to create something as beautiful as a Florence + The Machine song they just want that ever elusive fame. As madam Gaga once said “doin’ it for the fame cause we wanna live the life of the rich and famous”.



This influx of people who don’t believe in art but instead believe in fame kill those poor individuals with a real passions chances. They flood the market with so many wannabes that its impossible to be seen. But then again…… who could blame them ??? Who doesn’t want to live that life. Rubbing elbows with Elton John, P!nk, Florence Welch, Imogen Heap, Lily Allen and all those other people who truly inspired you.



Show business just maybe is out of our grasp. Maybe we aren’t all going to get there. Maybe we should just give up now…… NEVER…… What if ADELE had just given up ??? Or the late Amy Winehouse ??? Or Gags ??? Where would the next generation get there inspiration ??? From Cher Llyod ??? I don’t think so. Unfortunately all those musicians, actors, artists, people who fail at there dreams are necessary casualties in the continous development of the artistic world. There always has to be that group of runners up for the one truly remarkable winner



Just sayin………
