Funny Talent Show Auditions

Hello!


So many of Australia's and the world's biggest stars found success and began their careers after competing in talent shows like The X Factor, Idol, and Got Talent. Justice Crew, Trent Bell, In Stereo, One Direction, Little Mix and Kelly Clarkson all started off that way. These shows are a great stepping stone into the music and entertainment industry but for some people who have auditioned, it may be something they would rather forget.






In this post, I am going to share some funny talent show auditions from around the world. Sometimes, when I need a good laugh I watch these on YouTube. These auditions are hilarious, cringe-worthy and make you go "OMG!" Things can get crazy on the shows we love. I will add links to each audition.


1. Ablisa
Abby and Lisa auditioned for The X Factor UK in 2010.The friends spent the first few seconds of their moment on stage by talking about judge Louie Walsh being old and when Simon Cowell asked why they decided to audition, Abby replied, "I don't know." When the audience started booing, Lisa said "Shut up!" Not a good start, It all went downhill from there. The girls sang a song by Shayne Ward. It was bad. The most shocing part came at the end.

2. Andrew Fenlon
Andrew's American Idol 2010 audition went all wrong. He walked in tensed and angry because he had to wait for a very long time to get in. He answered the questions judges very rudely and his singing wasn't any better. The judges were not impressed by him at all. Kara was the most annoyed by him.

3. The Singing Souls
Louise, Tasha and Hannah auditioned for Britain's Got Talent in 2009 as a group called The Singing Souls. Their performance wasn't good at all. Simon Cowell said "Look girls, you sounded like three cats being dragged up the motorway." Hannah was very unaccepting of the judges criticism and continuously argued and made comments about The Spice Girls. The other girls were mostly quiet.

4. Ashanti Johnson
This woman should have auditioned for an acting role instead of American Idol. Her response to the judges comments about her performance was dramatic.

5. Jorge Pena
Jorge, who auditioned for The X Factor USA 2013, was actually really good but the way he was towards the female judges was.... well I don't know what to call it but it wasn't good.

6. Mary Lacarelli
She auditioned for American Idol and was so rude!

7. Mason Noise
This was actually at the 6 chair challenge round of the X Factor UK 2015. He was a great performer with a very bad attitude. He called out the producers for cutting his audition short for television.

8. Zoe Alexander
Zoe was a Pink tribute artist who auditioned for the X Factor UK 2012. She confused everyone by saying she wanted to move away from Pink and find her own identity but then singing a song by Pink. The judges asked her to sing another song so she did. The judges said it was much better but still wasn't good enough to go through to the next round. Zoe said they told her to sing a Pink song but they didn't. She then exploded!

9. Michael Lewis
This guy auditioned for the X Factor UK twice. First in 2010 as a Michael Jackson tribute act and again in 2011 as himself. Both times, his performance was bad and responded angrily to the judges criticism and the audience boos. He refused to leave the stage.

10. Yosselin Marquez
In what must have been a first for the X Factor USA or anywhere, this lady held her phone up and read the lyrics as she was auditioning!

These are just a few of the many hilarious talent show auditions. Sometimes I wonder if these people only go on the show to get five minutes of fame or if they genuinely believe they will get through. I also wonder if they are hired for extra entertainment. Whatever the reason is it makes good television.

Welcome back Justice Crew!

                                           Photo credit to @Justicecrewofficial Instagram Justice Crew are a dance and music group who won Australia's Got Talent in 2010 and went on to release many amazing songs including number one hits Boom Boom and Que Sera . After their tour in 2019, they took a long break and now they are back!  I have been a huge fan of them since the beginning and have been to a lot of their shows, so when they announced they were performing a show in February, of course I was excited and attended with my friend. There was a huge crowd there to see them, which surprised a few people, including maybe the guys themselves. After six years, they probably felt rusty, but they were actually amazing as always. It was so cool to see them on stage again and here all the hit songs the number ones and  Everybody. It's so crazy how even now, after six year...

Light in the Darkness

  We all carry a little darkness. Moments we don’t speak of. Storms We face. Shadows we walk through quietly.   But that doesn’t mean our light is gone.   Even on heavy days, when it feels like someone has punched us in the chest, or everything feels hopeless. We work. We care. We laugh. We create. We shine, like the brightest star in the sky.   No matter what happens today – even if it’s messy, or lonely, or full of tears - The sun will rise in the morning. Like it always does. Like we always do.   Because light doesn’t have to shout. Sometimes it just keeps showing up, quietly. One bright beam at a time.

Virtual Stop #1: Lymington - A Seaside Gem Discovered by Chance

Welcome to my virtual travel series, where I explore beautiful corners of the world without leaving my bed. Inspired by TikTok livestreamers and walking tour videos, these posts capture what I see, feel and learn as I journey through new places from afar.  I wasn't planning to visit Lymington - not virtually, not in any way. I had never heard of it before watching my favorite singing buskers livestream from the quaint little town in the UK and now I'm captivated. The charm of Lymington unfolded before my eyes: Cobbled pathways, rows of boats bobbing gently at the marina and friendly locals to stop and enjoy the music. I experienced it from my bed.  There is something so welcoming about the town, The people passing by weren't just polite - they were supportive. Some clapped, others left kind words or a few coins, and a few even stayed for songs. There are three ladies who go often to support the guys. They have all been following them on TikTok for a while and met each other...
