Chapter 1
Life as a Singer
My name is Scarlett. I am 14 years old, and I live in Canada. I have a older brother and sister, my older brother Liam is part of One Direction. Ya, I know he is really famous, and is great at singing, but so am I. We moved to Canada because the fans found our house. His fans are running my life. I had to delete my twitter because of hate, also my YouTube account. I made a new YouTube account and I post videos of me singing. I really love to sing and singing is my life. When Liam tried out for X-Factor I tried out as well. They said I was good but not ready to sing for a career.
This year I am going into high school,and I want to get into The Davison Academy in Nevada. It has the best music program in America. Tomorrow I am trying out for it, I have to have a 5.0 grade average and I also have to sing for them. I have a 5.0 grade average and most people say I have an amazing voice. I sing at my local theater and do small shows at a small restaurant calls, Suzies. People around there are my biggest fans. I get paid sometimes to do shows and have saved up enough money with the help of my parents to pay for the Davison Academy.
Tonight I am practicing for tomorrow, I am right now in a hotel with my best friend, Shea, Liam wanted to come but I said no, he practically ruined my life in London. As I finished up with I’m Yours by Jason Maraz, Shea walked in smiling. She has strawberry blond hair like my mom, I have caramel brown hair like Liam and my dad. She clapped for like 10 minutes and then we got ready for bed and went to sleep. The next morning I woke up at 5 on vocal rest. I got dressed, straightened my hair, brushed my teeth and grabbed my guitar. By the way I play the guitar, piano and banjo. Then I headed out the door with Shea and my mom, my dad was back in Canada working.
We drove 45 minutes to the school arena, where tryouts were. We had to sing while playing a musical instrument and then we had to take an entrance test if they like our singing. When I got there I was like the 7th person in line. When it was finally my turn I walked onto the stage in shock, there were about 1,000 people in the stadium watching me. I tried to stay calm and it kinda worked. I started the first cord after I introduced myself.
We’ll a you done, done me you better felt it.
I tried to be chill but your so hot that I melted,
I fell right through the crack, and now I’m trying to get back.
Before the cool, done run out I’ll be giving it my besets
and nothing gonna stop me but divine intervention
I reckon its again my turn to win some and learn some……
When I fished I got a standing ovation. Then the judge's started talking to me.
“Scarlett, you are a good singer, so we have decide that you will…..”
