Answer 1

when u sing on the stage don't think that u r on the stage just apply "self hypnotism" and tell urself that u r alone or the second option is that consider that the people around u are fools and dumbs and they don't know anything so u will not be scared any more..

I completely understand how you feel about being nervous, it's something I've struggled with for years. Do some breathing exercises before you go out..and take deep breaths inhaling through your nose and out of your mouth. If possible, find a way to run through your song in the actual place that you will be performing it, so that you can become comfortable with the environment and surroundings and feel more relaxed while you are performing. Pretend that there is an audience every time that you practice, and prepare yourself for how you will feel when there is one. Once you are actually there and getting ready to perform, don't concentrate on the fact that there are people watching you. Concentrate on the lyrics of your song, what they mean to you, and what you are trying to convey through the music. Become someone else if you have to, kind of like acting. Live what you are singing about. If you prepare your song well, you will have more confidence and won't be as nervous about messing up. And remember, chances are that people don't want to see you mess up. They want you to do well. This is your opportunity to show them what you've got. My voice professor always tells me that being nervous is an injustice to the music that you are performing. Make the music the best that you can..give it your all, and you won't have anything to worry about. Have confidence in yourself and nerves won't be as strong. Convince yourself that you have what it takes and that you are going to share that with the audience. Fake it til you make it! And one more thing..practicing in front of friends and family members helps a great deal. If you can get over the prospect of singing in front of them and get used to that, strangers should be no problem. I've found that singing in front of people I know makes me more nervous because I care what they think. Hope this helps!

Answer 3

I am an actress too, I ahve been in a few commercials, and I Co-Starred on 2 shows.
Do not worry about singing, because I'm sure you have a great voice!
I would suggest to look over the people's heads, it really helps, it looks like the whole room is empty, that's what I do sometimes.
Also, you can meditate before you sing.
Also you can practice in front of your family, and make it like their your audience, just to practice.
Just remember that people came here to hear you\ sing great, and your gonna do just fine!

Answer 5

I have gotten scared to sing in front of others,,,and or act..but, there is a "secret" part of me(no, I do not have multiple personalities! LOL!) this secret part is the "ham" in me....that is right inside....and I always tell others,including myself,..take that certain person out, and just sing...it doesn't matter if they don't like your voice or not...just do it, "I dare ya!"....I said this to myself, before I called up a radio station..(I was petrified...but, I was in such a "giddy" mood, that I decided to "do this for myself, and just have a fun time doing it!!!" You ONLY live once...and sometimes ya just gotta do this..for yourself...not for the others...as much...but ,as a "gift" for YOU!!! You are a terrific human being..and this is a "present" for yourself...enjoying the music..and enjoying just being on a stage,and singing your strong happy heart out!!!

This is ONLY for YOU!!! If other people don't like it...well, hey! That's too D** bad....because this is for you....and you just keep loving what you love to do.....there are alot of people in this world, that would either love to be like you...and or would just love to have a love...which is what you have....good for you!!!

Blessings!
