      Lovato Lover So incredibly cruel. They have no hearts.
      can’t imagine how hurt Tara must have been. I would have been wrecked if it had been me. I have so much admiration for her after seeing how she handled this.
      I’m glad she cleared it up. What she said at the end, I have a feeling she was picked to go through this awful experience before she was born. She was meant to save other people from being victims of these shows.
      It’s not a coincidence that she’s a fantastic vocal coach and she learned all their bad tricks that she could pass on to her students. Only way it makes sense that someone as nice as Tara would be made the villain.
      I thought her performance was courageous. Most people are too afraid to give it their all.

      I’ve had this happen at my job. I know it’s not filmed, but people will ignore the good that you do or only know a little bit about you and create a narrative in their head. They treat you poorly and then let your responses be the problem. It’s confirmation bias at its finest and it’s so hard to escape when you are being treated terribly. At my next job, the exact opposite narrative was pushed. I woke up to the fact that it was impossible that I was both. So I don’t take what people say as seriously anymore.

    I'm also a victim of a bad edit. I was on American Idol in 2016 and I couldn't believe how different the show was compared to what I grew up watching since I was 7 years old. I was just a clueless high schooler and had no idea what I was getting into. After I found out I was gonna be on the show a producer called me up and told me to sing a Kelly Clarkson song that I thought I couldn't sing but I figured I should do what they ask since that's a huge part of being in the music industry. So that's what I did and to be honest my audition wasn't bad, I just got a little carried away at the end but unfortunately that's the only part of my audition that was aired so to America it looked like I was a really terrible singer. Also I have one of those high guy male voices so the producers probably also saw that as an opportunity to get some laughs out of people. Harry Connick Jr. was one of the judges that year and he inspires me so much with his talent and he told me "I had a gift to be able to sing that high" but then like what happened to Tara, that comment was cut and pasted onto someone else's audition who actually made it to Hollywood. When I saw it air on TV I was crushed more than I ever have been and I'm still not 100% over it, but I'm about to complete my coursework at Berklee College of Music in a few months as a Music Therapy major on a scholarship so I know I can't really be that bad as the show made me out to be haha.

Of course, there's a big difference between doing that with fictional characters and real people cos the latter has consequences

    I auditioned for X-Factor UK. It's nothing like you see on TV.
    They sit you in a dingy room, chairs in a circle, bunch of contestants. You take turns getting asked questions on a makeshift set, which is where they get all the emotional stuff they'll edit and slice into the actual show if you're a contestant. You sing in front of the showrunner and producers, if they like you and they have enough material (presumably for a storyline or something for audiences to cling to) then they'll let you perform in front of the judges, which on the show, appears as your first audition.
    Some will even get through if they play up a character but aren't particularly talented at singing, and these are the people who you see getting rejected by the judges. Most of the stand-offs between the 'judges' are completely staged. It's rare that they're real. Also if a contestant isn't well or can't perform as they did in the pre-audition, this is where they get all the upset/disappointment footage.
    All the people they show lined outside the 'auditions' are people that have passed the pre-audition and family/friends if applicable. None of them are there auditioning for the first time (which is why they can rope in so many people). As for me, I passed the singing side of it (although admittedly I wouldn't have said I was the best there), but didn't get the go ahead to perform in front of the judges. I can only speculate that I failed the questioning. No interesting back story, pretty boring blank page, not much of an actor, introverted. Told them this when they asked. They never tell you why you don't get approved.
    So, yeah. If you're thinking about applying for these reality singing competitions... It's all smoke and mirrors. Go in with a cynical mind, and learn how to play by their rules to get ahead. You have to be a talented singer to make it far, autotuning and sound editing can only do so much, but they're really also looking for good TV.
    Dial up the energy, make yourself appear endearing. Be relatable to an audience, try to emotionally connect with them, make them WANT you to win to the best of your ability. This drives up call votes and show ratings, this is your leverage, this is what makes the producers want to keep you around. Know that they are watching and listening 99% of the time, so don't do/say anything that can be used out of context against you. None of that is easy to do, but if you start thinking of it like a game, then you're already ahead.

      ​@@srvini7357 2009. Just over 10 years ago now.
      They may have slightly changed the process in the last few years. I remember some controversy about the UK X-Factor allowing bad acts through pre-auditions just to be ridiculed on TV, so you see an awful lot less of that these days.
      I was in a group of 9 or so in the pre-auditions, there may have been other groups that day. And as I said, while I don't think I was the best of my group even, I wasn't the worst. Someone got through that, on singing ability, shouldn't have. That caused a bit of upset and puzzled looks, there was a girl there that I'd've considered the best out of all of us and even she didn't get through. I can only assume that the questioning side of the pre-audition plays a much bigger part than you'd might think.
      It shouldn't be all that dissimilar. I believe they now ask for you to send in a video of you singing as part of your application, which will determine whether or not you're invited to a pre-audition.
      That wasn't a thing back then. So it may even be harder, and lend itself more towards semi-professional singers with recording/editing equipment on hand.

      No surprise at all. Years ago, I auditioned for American Ido in America (USA). I never got to the stage of seeing a judge and everything you described is the same. I didn't get far at all never made it past the first audition and there were several from what I learned later before some got to the judges.

    Thank you Tara. This is an eye opener. Because, from a viewers point of view, it seems like the world the celebrities live in, is just so wonderful that we just want to get there. Little do we know that people can lose themselves in the process and has no control over how they will be portrayed. When I saw you reacting to Lea Salonga, I thought that, "she can't be the same person from the X factor". I'm happy knowing now, for sure, that you're a wonderful person. I've watched your reaction on Lea plenty of times! It's such a comfort knowing that someone out there really knows what they're saying and doing. I've had voice lessons before but I was not satisfied. I've given up singing but I'm watching your videos bec. I'm learning a lot. Maybe someday, I'll sing again. Much love from the Philippines!💕

    I’ve been on TV here in the U.K, on a very popular daytime TV show actually (I’ll refrain from saying which one, if you don’t mind), & oh boy, did my 19 year old self learn so much after that experience. The day it was aired, I cringed my way through it, thought nothing more of it & went out that evening for a quiet drink with a friend - oh my goodness. Everyone stared, pointed, laughed, made snide remarks. It killed my confidence. I’m 33 now & I still remember it like it was yesterday.
    It makes me sad thinking others, especially our younger generation, believe everything they see when they watch TV. I don’t think people truly realise just how much slicing / dicing / editing goes on, it’s completely insane.

It’s not right, but I am SO glad you had such a blast with your performance! That’s what counts! Thank you for having such a beautiful heart and voice!

    Tara i'm actually so glad you made this video, because i've been watching you here on YT for a very long time and you're so charismatic and professional without being arrogant, you look like such a positive person to be around. But i always remembered the way they made you out to be so obnoxious on x factor, and i was so bewildered because i specifically remembered how they showed you singing against Jennel Garcia (whom i also love) and they made you look so bad there...I now understand and i appreciate you making this vid ❤

    Thank you Tara for being you! I can tell that you are a good person! I binge watched your reaction videos and you can't fake the awesome person that you are. I'm a huge fan of Audition Shows, I enjoy them very much...
    I've heard a few horror stories about and also watched a couple of reveal videos and believe that these shows are making it interesting to the viewers, one of the video testimonials was the small print that openly allows these shows full power of the content they wish to share AND depict the contestants as they see fit with this degrading, belittling and insulting character of all who sign up for their chance to make it in the industry. I have also seen that everyone is contractually obligated to abide by the rules which are quite extensive and for the most part unknown by most contestants. You're an inspirational person who means well and I personally enjoy your expertise and respect your ability to evaluate the video suggestions. I can tell that you are kind and thoughtful and honest with your evaluation of each of the videos...You're also extremely pretty, am I allowed to say that?...lol

    You may have had a case against Xfactor to take to court for how you were harassed after the show by Christina Aguilera fans 😂.

    Very cool to hear you talk about XFactor and the fact that it's just a Reality Show. Many people don't get that and the fact that it's all about the clicks and votes and commercials, so the show will do almost anything to promote the "Show" !

    Thank you for bravely sharing and for warning others of the pit falls. These shows have utter disregard of the mental health of young people. It's nothing short of emotional assault and could lead to relationship and career breakdowns, mental illness and self harm. Well done for holding your head up high and coming out of the other end so strong. Love your channel and your insight on this. Love from England . XxX

    Shocker "reality tv" is about as real as a cartoon and equally as scripted

      And they've already chosen their "winner" before the bloody show's even kicked off!
