When people are training to become singers, they all have moments when they hit a wall.
I have a degree in vocal performance, I'm a classically trained singer, and I studied musical theatre.
I'm not a trained singer at all. I've auditioned on occasion for proper musical theatre-type stuff, but I can't read music, and I wasn't particularly good at it.
I went to a performing arts school. I went to an audition for a musical, 'Les Miserables,' in the West End, and I got in, and my parents were like, 'Oh, you can sing?' So I kind of started singing properly when I was, like, seven.
As I am a lyrical singer, I really have to work hard. I'm still really training on a daily basis on my vocals. Because of the lyrical training, it never really ends.
I had a lot of coaching for the movie and no, I have never sung professionally before.
I sang when I was in primary school, and I did singing at Sylvia Young: no acting at all.
I went to school for singing, middle school at LaGuardia High School. Followed by Berkeley College of Music and afterwards I went to acting school at the Neighborhood Playhouse for Theater.
