>> AND YOU DROVE TO ATLANTA FOR

AUDITIONS THERE.

WHAT WAS THAT EXPERIENCE LIKE?

>> THAT WAS THE MOST -- I FELT

LIKE EVERY EMOTION THAT YOU CAN

FEEL.

I WAS EXCITED, BUT THAT WAS THE

MOST NERVOUS I FELT IN MY

ENTIRE LIFE.

IT WAS SO SCARY.

>> I KNOW YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO

TALK ABOUT RESULTS BECAUSE YOUR

IT.

SO I WAS LIKE, THIS IS DESTINY.

FAMILY REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT IT

A LOT WITH ME.

I REALLY FELT LIKE IT WAS MEANT

TO BE BECAUSE I GOT THAT

TICKET.
