America's Got Talent???

Postby thegreatest » Jun 13th, '08, 18:47



I was hoping to be able to audition for this show but I think that's all done with. It starts here in this country next week, 6/17, and I'm kind of sad that i missed the auditions. i think this could be a way to make my mark in the magic world. anyone have experience auditioning for these shows? i think there's a uk version and an austrailian one. they really are a great way to showcase magic

Sadly the UK version suffers from Simon Cowell's admitted intense dislike of magic and magicians!

and I don't think that the American version is much better with Piers Morgan.

Unless you are an exceptional performer with an exceptional talent then I think that these shows generally set you up to fail because it makes better TV to ridicule people than to encourage them.
