I got this in my email today and had to share it (and enter it).
If you asked ANY mother what her top 5 complaints would be, you would most likely hear something similar to this:
1) I miss alone time!
2) I need a vacation!
3) I don’t feel “pretty” anymore.
4) We never get out of the house.
5) Does anyone even hear me?
If you are woman over 18 with an amazing singing voice, thanks to Avon Voices, your woes can be over.
Avon Voices is Avon’s first-ever global online singing talent search for women and songwriting competition for men and women. A panel of celebrity judges, including Fergie, Natasha Bedingfield, Sheila E., Diane Warren and more are on hand, providing singing tips and helping select our finalists.
And if you are picked as a finalist, you’ll get the chance to TRAVEL (takes care of the vacation) to Hong Kong, Rio de Janiero, Paris, Hollywood, New York or Nashville, plus PHOTO AND VIDEO SHOOTS, a PROFESSIONAL MAKEOVER and coaching (will get you feeling pretty again). The best part is, the winners may get the opportunity record a professionally produced album (the whole world will now hear you).
It takes 30 seconds. Record a video of you singing 30 seconds of a hit song from the approved list that you can do right from your home. It’s a year-long competition but your readers only have until February 13, 2011 to submit a 30-second video clip at www.avonvoices.com. We would love for you to share this with them today. After all, it might be all they need to become the next big singing sensation!
Videos of celebrity judges and other information about Avon Voices can be found on our YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/avonvoices.
Cool huh? I’ve had a love affair with music my whole life. I play multiple instruments, my main being piano and the clarinet, but singing is my first love. I started my major in vocal performance when I went to college and had a scholarship and stupidly didn’t follow through. It’s my only regret in my life.
My mom is always asking me to participate in the karaoke contests around here but I haven’t done it. When I got this I thought what the hay? I’ll give it a try. I’ve listened to quite a few of the other entries and I now think there is no way on this great Earth that I could win but I’ll throw my hat in anyway. Here’s my submission.
Like the title? I didn’t want anyone to search for various things and find it and make fun of me. 
You’ll notice my lips and voice don’t line up and I’m in the bathroom but what do you do? You work with what you have. I’m sure they didn’t want 4 kids, 2 lovebirds, and a dog in the video. It’s only 30 seconds but that was the required length. Oh and we’re also working with a nice cough. I think that’s all my tearing apart of myself that I can do.
Ok, now you go enter it!
