@MultiShelly1985 thank you so much for such a kind comment, means the world to me, and sorry you got a silly response. I guess some people love to hate. But I appreciate your lovely message xxx

@nickschriermt thank you for your kind comments, they mean more than I can say xxxxxxx

[nickschriermt]

Beautiful. Dynamic. Interesting. Everything it should be.

@MultiShelly1985 Yay. You made an account just to say that? ^_^ Minion much?

[MultiShelly1985]

Criticism is constant in the industry. Even with amazing talent.

You'll probably need to get used to it because your talent is exemplary.

Don't listen to fake tan/disney/bland comments.

The clapping at the end speaks volumes.

@zLuxz I would have put it up. But I didn't. I appreciate that you hate my headshots, as i've explained, they are saturated on this video, however, I am not cast aside by casting directors, they do see me, and even miraculously, cast me! So i'm sticking with my head shot. I appreciate you are entitled to your comments, I just have never had a comment like that posted, before so I guess it took me back a little. But as I said before, all the best x

@zLuxz i'm not weak at heart, i can handle criticism and rejection, it's a huge part of this industry, i just thought some of your comments were a little beyond; as for the 'bum notes' - do you know the song off my heart? - there are some odd notes in it, and i'm acting it, which is why it's not so 'sung' as most of my other performances and hence any 'bum' notes - she's falling apart and frustrating, technical perfection wouldn't be right. Obviously if i'd had footage of me performing it

@toriallenmartin Lastly, I do appreciate and admire your elegant and intelligent responses. It's always a breath of fresh air when ppl take criticism without having some kind of tantrum or fit. I just hope you don't take everything to heart though. There's many many people who are going to give it to you a lot meaner or worse than I ever could. The music industry (as well as other similar industries) is not for the weak at heart.

As far as the headshots... sorry but I still think a couple of the videos with you singing live you look a lot more beautiful than those. Personally, if I was going through them I'd immediately toss them to the side and be like "Yawn. Another one of those fake girls who's orange and plastic. Next!" I'm specifically talking about the ones with the brownish earthy background by the way. The others aren't bad, but you should burn those; they look dreadful.

@toriallenmartin As for my background to prove (albeit with no concrete evidence) that I have some sense in what I'm talking about I have 4 years of formal education in photography and theater. For my current job I work as a make- up artist, which I've been doing for over a year although I've had the experience for about 3. I also play guitar and have studied classical violin for 12 years and piano for 8. I don't sing though, but I know the ins and outs of what a good singer is and does.
