I wasn’t sure if I was going to make it. All of us were holding hands, feeling each other's trembling fingers. I wanted to make it. This was my last chance. The lights were flashing pink and purple, blasting onto our gold and white uniforms. I worked hard on this show for the past five months. Please let me debut…please.

I know the industry is going to be scary, but I know as the oldest I can help everyone.

“Ranking 2 with a perfect 1,500,000 votes, the big sister of the group and from Australia herself…”

I tense up, say it! Please! There was only one other Australian contestant. I saw her looking over, giving me a disgusted look, trying to stand tall and act confident. She was already letting go of the girl’s hands she was holding and started tying her hair up.

Hearing my name, tears flooded out making me collapse onto my knees. I felt all my fellow sister contestants comfort me and tried to push me away towards the stand I would have to walk to.

My bows were sloppy as I walked across, daring me to fall forward.

Reaching the other side and seeing the MC hand me the mic, the cheers grew louder, and the screams went wild.
