THEY’LL HAVE THE THIRD PICK WHEN THEY RESUME. IN THIS SECOND ROUND. WE’LL SEE WHO THE LIONS
ARE ABLE TO ADD TO LION’S DEN.
EXCITEMENT IS IN THE AIR TODAY
BECAUSE THE GO FOR IT SINGING
COMPETITION IS STARTING TODAY IN
THE WINNER GETS TO SING AT THE
FORD FIREWORK SHOW ALSO GETS
2000 BUCKS. WE HAVE OUR POLLEN
TUTMAN LIVE FROM LAUREL PARK
PLACE IN LAVONIA, WHERE THE
AUDITIONS ARE SET TO START LATER
TODAY, PRETTY EXCITING, PAULA.
YEAH IT REALLY IS. FOLKS ARE
ALREADY STOPPING BY ASKING WHEN
THEY SHOULD START LINING UP AND
I WOULD SAY SOMEWHERE WHILE
AROUND 1 30 OR SO BECAUSE THE
AUDITIONS ACTUALLY STARTED
THREE, BUT THIS IS HOW IT
STARTS. AND THAT IS THE SETUP.
SO THIS IS WHAT THE SET IS
ACTUALLY GOING TO LOOK LIKE THIS
IS OUR CREW RIGHT HERE WORKING
ON LIGHTING SOUND, THE MONITORS
, ETCETERA. HONESTLY THE BACK
SIDE OF THIS IS A LOT OF HARD
WORK, BUT ALSO THE OPPORTUNITY
TO BE A STAR. IMAGINE BEING A
BRAND MANAGER. REALLY FOR THE
ONLY TELEVISION STATION IN THE
CITY. THAT’S GOING TO BE A LOT
OF HARD WORK, TOO. GO FOR IT FOR
IT. EVERY PROMISE THAT YOU MAKE
EVERY BARRIER YOU LEAVE. NO YOU
. GO FOR IT. SPENCER WILL TELL
YOU. THE ROAD TO LOCAL STARDOM
IS AS WONDERFUL AS IT IS
DEMANDING. SHE WAS THE VERY
FIRST EVER WINNER OF OUR GO
FORWARD SINGING COMPETITION BACK
IN 1982. THERE’S A VERSE IN THAT
GO FOR IT. THIS IS THERE’S SO
MUCH MORE IN YOU MORE THAN YOU
HAVE SEEN THEIR WORLDS TO
EXPLORE BEFORE YOU KNOW THE
POSSIBILITY. YOU CAN’T EVEN
BEGIN TO KNOW WHAT YOU’RE
CAPABLE OF. IN ADDITION TO
SINGING OR MUSIC OR PERFORMANCE
OR DRAMA, WHATEVER IT IS, YOU’RE
COMING FROM RIGHT AT THIS SO
MUCH MORE. THERE’S SO MUCH MORE
. THE ROAD TO WINNING HAS BEEN
AMAZING TO HER PERSONAL GROWTH
THROUGHOUT THE YEARS. IT MADE ME
RECOGNIZE MY TALENT. IT’S JUST
SOMETHING MORE THAN I DO IN MY
LIVING ROOM OR IN MY CHURCH.
BULLARD WAS THE HIGH JUMPER IN
ONE OF OUR COMMERCIALS,
COMMERCIALS AND THERE A MINUTE
LONG, AND YOU JUST DON’T REALIZE
WHAT GOES INTO THE PROCESS AND
ALL THE SHOTS AND THAT YOU KNOW
THEY SHOT FOR EIGHT HOURS. AND
FOR ALL WHAT A MINUTE AND A HALF
EVEN HER ROLE WAS GRUELING. I
WASN’T SWEATING ENOUGH SO
SOMEBODY WOULD COME AND MISSED
MY FACE AND I’M SUPPOSED TO LOOK
INTENSE. LIKE I’M GONNA JUMP.
IT’LL BE HARD WORK. IT WILL BE
DEMANDING, BUT IT WILL BE
SOMETHING YOU ABSOLUTELY
POSITIVELY WILL NEVER FORGET.
IT’S SOMETHING SO SIMPLE. AND
IT’S JUST REALLY WHAT THE CITY
IS ABOUT. YOU KNOW, WE DESPITE
DESPITE EVERY ODDS AGAINST US GO
FOR IT. WE GET THROUGH IT. YOU
KNOW, WE’RE THE HIGH JUMPER WERE
THE BALLERINA DANCER WERE THE
KID TRYING TO BEAT HIS
GRANDFATHER? A CHECKERS? WE HAVE
BEAT THE ADS. WE GO FOR IT, NO
MATTER WHAT. IT’S THE SPIRIT OF
THIS CITY. IT’S WHAT MAKES US SO
GREAT. YEAH YOU KNOW WHAT IT
REALLY REALLY IS? ALRIGHT SO,
JASON, YOU DO IMPERSONATIONS, SO
I KNOW YOU HAVE A VOICE ON YOU.
YOU’RE A JUDGE, RIGHT? SO WHEN
WILL YOU BE OUT HERE? I’LL BE AT
SOMERSET TOMORROW MORNING FROM
11 TO 12. THAT YOU ARE YOU
SUGGESTING I START SINGING WHILE
I’M OUT THERE? NO NO, NO, NO, NO
, NOT YET, BUT I DON’T EVEN KNOW
IF YOU’RE OLD ENOUGH TO REMEMBER
THE JERRY LEWIS TELETHON. ARE
YOU OLD ENOUGH TO REMEMBER THOSE
WERE THEY JUST WENT ON AND ON
AND ON. OKAY BUT THAT’S THE
OTHER COOL THING BECAUSE WHEN
THE AUDITION STARTED THREE
O’CLOCK TODAY WILL ACTUALLY BE
SHOWING ALL OF THOSE AUDITIONS
LIVE ON LOCAL 4. PLUS SO YOU CAN
LIKE, GO DO THINGS COME BACK AND
WATCH THE AUDITIONS. WATCH
PEOPLE WHO ARE HERE ON A GOOF,
BUT PEOPLE WHO ARE SERIOUSLY
SERIOUSLY GOING TO GO FOR IT. I
KNOW IT’S RAINING. OUTSIDE IS
BAD, BUT ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS GET
UNDER YOUR UMBRELLA. LEILA,
LEILA LEILA. AND COME GO FOR IT
. AH DON’T SING LIKE ME OR ANY
OF US. THE REAL ONES ARE COMING
LATER TODAY. THAT’S FOR SURE.

LIVING WE DON’T SING FOR A
