The Next Singing Star: Season 2, Top 3 Show: Pg 62/63! Options

[smileyriley14]

(Thanks to Kebin65 for all the graphics!)

That's right! It's back for the second season! It works the same way as the first season. However, for the people who don't know how it works, here's basically a summary:

You basically make up to 2-4 characters out of 3 voices (artists, idols) that sound alike or close enough to each other. Then, it turns out into like any other redux here at Redux Emporium (I give you a theme, you choose, etc.), but you can't choose songs by anyone in your voice as it will be called "predictable" or "safe".

Luciano Russo

Bio: Hi! I am Luciano Russo. I grew up singing in my grandpa's pizzeria in New York. What I see my self as is a great well rounded entertainer. I sing, I dance, I act. I do it all. Some people may see my singing style as quirky and a bit off. But that's because I love to mix soul, folk, and even techno into different varieties of music. I am even a DJ at local night club in the city. I want to be able to change the industry and stop the run of cookie-cutter singers. All I need is my big break. I am anything but safe. I am a risk taker. Just because I have a cool and laid-back exterior doesn't mean I can't bust out of the mold. I hope to at least change everyone's perception on what a singer really is. I'm here to grow. I'm here to share. And I'm here to win!

Vanessa Lopez
Bio: Hey, I'm Vanessa Lopez, and I'm a 20 year old music student from Chicago, Illinois. Music has been my passion for as long as I can remember. My dad is a musician, and when I was little he would play piano and sing at lots of small venues all over the city. He taught me how to play the piano when I was 6, and ever since then I knew that I wanted to follow in his footsteps and become a performer! I have been trying to make it in the music industry for a few years, and I am so excited to be a part of the top 12 this year! It is so surreal, I can't believe my dreams are coming true right before my eyes.

Gennifer Carson
Bio: Howdy y'all! ...I'm Gennifer Carson, 23...from Nashville, TN and to some me up in one word would be COUNTRY! Country music is my passion and my LIFE! I love listenin' to other stuff but when it comes to performin' and singin' it's all about that Country place for me! I've had to work real hard to try and make my dream come true! I've been singin' and playin' the guitar and piano as long as I can remember! I worked my way through college as a music major and I worked hard for what I got! My family was never poor or nothin' but we know the meanin' of hard work and determination and I think that is a big part of what helps me get through all of this! Besides my family back home my biggest supporter is my fiance, Ben! Besides music, Ben is my everythin' and I'm not only doin' this for me and my dreams but for my family and Ben! Anythin' I can do to help our family and future family have a better life...well it's one of my goals in life! We only get one chance so you gotta give it your best the first time! There were some rough times when I almost gave up on my dream, but I got some amazin' advice from a true Country Legend that I got the amazin' honor to sing for back home and I know that this is what I want to do with my life and there isn't anythin' that I will let make me give up on that dream ever again! I know I've got Nashville behind me 100% so now America are you ready to go country too!?

Vanessa Momsen
Bio: Hi, my name is Vanessa Momsen and I am your small town country girl, with a big dream. I know....these singing competitions see this type of person a lot but I think I'm a bit different. I have grown up with a really great life, no sob story here. I've been singing since as far back as I can remember and I have always wanted this. My parents have always pushed me and tried to get me gigs or at least put my name out there a bit. This is honestly all that I want in life. I can't think of anything that I'd rather be doing and this show is, what seems to be, my only chance. I may have lived a good life so far, but that doesn't mean we have the money to get this started on our own I think I can win this because unlike other country contestants on this type of show, I'm willing to take risks and bring different versions that some people may not know to the show. I hope to take risks but also stay true to my country roots because that is exactly what I want to do with my career.

[SargentWaffels]

[smileyriley14]

wait are they real or made-up

They are made-up. You basically make up the characters with voices (3 and they all must sound relatively the same)

[raygun101093]

I'll judge as everyone's favorite trainwreck from last season (with one DAMN FIEUS performance):

LORELAI JAMESON!
