The fact that they changed your response is cruel. I can't imagine how it must've felt to make your debut and be seen as a hater of your biggest inspiration.
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.
That is grounds for a defamation lawsuit.
@@holyloktarw186 I mean they did literally change the words she said, that's how people make it look like people committed crimes or something to get them in trouble, so yeah that's a huge lawsuit
Really everybody who plans to go to these kind of shows should see this first.
Lovato Lover No, they changed the question that they had asked her not her response. Listen again.
"No one cares about x factor anyway"
She just roasted them with the truth lol
The truth hurts!
Haha absolutely 💫
x factor use to be good when Joe Rogan was host.
True that
Cockney Rebel I honestly forgot about it. I only watched a few clips of One Direction..😂
I rejected my invitation to Hollywood from American Idol for this exact reason, not being able to control the narrative. When my episode finally aired I was featured in a compilation of people who "weren't wired for success."
Thank you for sharing your experience!
You're Angelica Hale's coach?? I didn't even know she was amazing!!
🙌🏻🥰
Tara Simon Studios wow she still responds after months of posting this!
@@Tarasimonstudios omg really!?
Redbud88 - Wow - Angelica blew my mind - one of the very few performances I ever saved - thank you, Tara, you did good.
WOW
Isn’t it ironic that something called a “reality” show is scripted and edited
But isn’t it more edited than scripted? Or like you mean there’s a script that the edits need to follow 🤔 oh I think I get it now
Sonata Shinome I’m just talking about reality shows in general haha but yea that makes sense too
LOL. That;s so true.☺☺☺
An old man turned 98. Won the lottery, died the next day.
We all know this stuff isn't real lol its entertainment like movies
This lady is a class act. One can tell that she is a great human being.
Andy Palmer WAWWW you can tell that by the video she made and edited about herself no way 🤭🤭🤭
Jhorman Gonzalez
Yeah you can actually kinda tell if a person is genuine through a video.. you must have no friends to properly socialize looooool
Yes, only those who cannot or will not recognize that Tara Simon has a big heart does not appear to have one themselves.
True dad
Sounds like an angry dog.. No softness in her voice... Angry dog
Everyone’s all like, “Go on X Factor!! Go on American Idol!!” I know what these shows are about. They’re not about talent. They’re all about a sob story.
Preach 👏🏻
i was the hundreadth like
It's more accurately about the profit they can squeeze out of what they put out to be "reality".
Zoey Smith ikr
I think the important thing to remember is that they're tv shows, not talent competitions. All tv shows need drama, villains, tension, heroes...competitive reality shows merely use the competitive element as a means to tell their story. Of course, there's a big difference between doing that with fictional characters and real people cos the latter has consequences
Tara what you said about people who are very extroverted and confident being twisted into being obnoxious, i relate to that so much.. this is the first time I've felt seen.
You are seen! And valued! And worthy! You are who you’ve called to be, so never dim your light for the sake of others. Keep on shining love!
Thank you for bringing to attention the ridiculousness of media. They twist everything to create drama to make the show seem more than it is to attract viewers.
Exactly.
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.
Why don't you do a cover again of "somebody to love" and posted on this channel? I'd like to see your new and improved version. Because I believe you are much better singer now than you were back then.
Yaaaaaaaaas
Yes please, Ms. Tara!
Oh my goodness-wouldn’t that be great if Tara would do a cover again of “somebody to Love” on her utube channel. I would absolutely love to see it😊
Yes pls
A+ 100% this, and would love to see it under controlled conditions as a planned complete performance.
Don't trust everything you see on tv. If they twist stuff like singing, what else can they twist and make people believe a lie?
You mean.. like The Kardasian?
Imagine?!
Covid and masks.
@@angelicalumbo9336 or news & statistics
I actually gained even more respect for you than I already had. I have watched your reaction videos for a while and thought you were amazing. Seeing this (even if you hadn't explained) just added to the depth you show in each video. I wonder if you would consider doing some covers on occasion that we could enjoy just hearing you. I know I'd love to hear you (under your own terms). Anyone else? Would you like to hear Tara sing something for us?
Tara...what an eye opener! I'm glad you showed this to us. I don't watch these shows. The only one I watch now is The Voice because the coaches are so entertaining. Keep up the good work...
No
@@MrScans1 right
Can she do F1 to E5??
THIS NEEDS TO BE TITLED *XFACTOR EXPOSED* !!!
Not really. I would believe what she's saying here even if I had never watched a single video of hers before, because it's so well known how bad some of these reality shows are about faking narratives and just using people for ratings.
I swear i was about to type that , it's so true
Lol
X Factor Xposed! 🙃
they'd probably sue her for defamation
I am so sorry that you were treated so badly. I love your ability to offer constructive criticism. You are a beautiful person.
Much appreciated!
Wow, I remember how I watched this season, and I hated Tara, because how mean she seemed to be.
It's very disrespectful how these type of shows change the actual footage to make them seem more dramatic.
You're not the only one they've made this to, but now I see the real you, and I support you a lot💙
Tara we can see the real you in your reaction videos, so you have nothing to worry about. The real you shines with genuineness and kindness.
Much appreciated!
X Factor, more like X POSED
Lol!!!
Nice one
Hahaha
Wow this comment is simpe yet perfect
lol right
So is no one gonna acknowledge that she was on the same season as camila cabello
Myalyn Sek yes she was .. and now camila Cabello is HUGE and this one didn’t go anywhere ..
Noe Lira she could if she wanted to.
Noe Lira you clearly took nothing away from this video lol, bless your heart
Cileste what I took from from it is that she’s so full of herself .. she should have just been herself and not try so hard.. she really thought she was better than everyone else .. bless her heart .. NO!
@@texasboy1209 please rewatch the video and think again about what you wrote. like use your spare brain cells (if you have any left) and actually think.
I'm so sorry that the editors and producers did all these things to you Tara. I so admire all your strength and resilience in this situation, and for rising above the whole thing SO WELL! You're one amazing and talented human being!
Oh My God Tara i had no idea!! That's a really rude and disrespectful thing to do to someone.
But thank u for opening up about ur past!!
@@teo5966 so ur saying she did that on purpose????
And this is why these talent shows are so scripted and unreal.
Brad K It’s just a TV production, and they will do anything to get their ratings up.
Same as Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj's feud on American Idol Season 12.
everything in tv is scripted, no big secret there
@@Mad-RCandHOBBY scripting is fine. manipulating content that deliberately hurts participants just for ratings is wrong at every level.
@@shrekswife2164 well that's tv, they record anything, any face anything you say to use it afterwards and that's not new, just like the laughs in shows, all fake and organized
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.
Hope you’re doing well
I’m so sorry that this happened to you. That’s so depressing. I would have been so upset 😭
Oh Dylan, this makes my heart hurt for you!! But being successful is the best revenge, and u got that revenge bc of all your accomplishments!! Godspeed to you, Dylan!❤
Im so so sorry 😢
I bet you were great.
My sister was on the Danish version of star search (I think the equivalence was), she was to sing her song twice, first time flawless, second time she inhaled a huge chunk of smoke, that distorted her voice box slightly, but enough to through her off key at a few spots, and that was the clip they used, because that was the only way they could justify not giving her the number 1 spot for that episode.
that’s really awesome for her! experience is a wonderful teacher and a gift!!
@@Tarasimonstudios Wait, did she change her comment????? I haven’t watched you much, but you seem like a really nice person and I don’t think you’d respond that way. I was really shocked, but I then saw it said edited. Anyways, loved the video 👍😊🙌
I love your pfp
@@alistairjr8341 I was also in shock. It seemed like such a strange response.
@@puglover6113 yeah
You know what, I've spent hours watching dramatic auditions of these types of competition shows and you've truly opened my eyes to a whole new world. - I had never took time to think further than what was being shown to me. - I commend you for being such a class act and to put a positive spin on what happened. You're such a great person Tara !
Here's a revolutionary idea: a reality TV show that actually displays reality 😳
We have that, it's called Slow TV, only Norwegians liked it...
Baaaah that would never work
That wouldn’t sell ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Elijah Agapito that would be called a vlog
Reality is unsellable. That's quite sad.
It is so shocking hearing your stories about the X-Factor. But I believe you completely. Please continue to be a blessing to all.
I hope to be! Thanks love!
I believe her too. The media do this all the time.
@@Tarasimonstudios I do have one request could you please elaborate on what happened between you and Jennel? Because that made you look like a villain too but I'd like to hear your side of the story for that
I tuned out of X Factor ages ago, years in fact. Editing the way that they did to you is pure lies and could have been quite damaging had you not been such a strong lady. That's how rumours start and rumours are how lives a ruined. Thank you for your testimony. You are an amazing singer, you look great and it's obvious that you're just a lovely person. Jessie J's Purple Rain brought me to your channel. Team Tara X
You may have had a case against Xfactor to take to court for how you were harassed after the show by Christina Aguilera fans 😂.
My son was one of Tara's students during this time. I was shocked at what people were saying about her because that was not the real Tara. I'm so glad she's had the opportunity to set the record straight. Good job Tara! Love you bunches! And I love the success that you are having now. I'm super proud of you!!!
I had a niece who joined a dating show and they did the same thing to her. Viewers have no idea how manipulative TV shows are; they twist and splice to fit their own narratives. Thanks for putting this out there. Contestants beware!

That was Really bad I just did not like that you didn’t make me feel good it didn’t make me happy just feel ridiculous
She tried practised made better and if. I was there it will be fun And it good singing but it aggressively
Lady, I watch the xfactor. There was so much singer there far better than you. They went much further than you. They young miss with their he patterns on her face was better. The Miss in that short red skirt and white top who sang Whitney was so good. Plus 2,others I can remember. You were crazy. And the judges saw between your legs when you went down.
ТАРА ТЫ очень эмоциональная ))))))))))) ЖИВАЯ И ВКУСНАЯ ))))))))))))))
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 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.
which year did you auditioned?
Wow never knew this...thanks for the info
@@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.
It reminds me a lot an episode of Black Mirror. So distressing!
Your testimony is a huge eye-opener.. didn't think televised shows were so crafty about it.
'Course they are! They want maximum views, and they don't care who they have to trample on in order to get them views.
Nigh-on every starry-eyed fame-hunter thinks that showbiz is all bloody glamour and glitz. It ain't! It's a crock!
its called reality tv
Cockney Rebel like clickbait UA-cam channels, lol
“It healed everything that had been broken.” I love that for you. When your true self is so powerful that it’s shines through to those around even when they’re being fed lies.
You did magic on Angelica Hale! Her Betty Boop musicale role and singing was stellar!! And that's because you selflessly shared to her your wings...
What a sweet comment. Day made! Thank u ❤️
I have to apologize. A while ago I commented asking you to react to this. I was doing it to be mean because I thought it was terrible. But after watching this I understand. They edited it to make it terrible. And I know you are very talented. So I apologize. I'm sorry the show did this to you
The only question is: why would you want to be mein??
@@jennm4834 just a lapse in judgement. Mostly just to poke fun. But it was mean, so I apologized.
Well I'm glad you apologized and you are honest as to why you did it but reality TV just really knows how to make people look terrible and evil when they are truly kind individuals
That is so kind of you to notice past faults and to apologize for them
@@kevinbean9993 thank you
you basically roasted x factor instead 😂😂 and im living for it
Wow, she’s coached a lot of great singers! Angelica Hale on AGT, Clara Hong on The Voice, several others on American Idol.
Hi Tara! I'm one of your fans from the Philippines 🇵🇭❤ and I'm proud to say that I'm learning from all of your videos. Please continue to inspire us. Lovelots!
I went for Britain’s got talent when I was 16 it was the worst experience I’ve had singing wise ever! I travelled 5 hours to get there and waited 8 hours to actually get my audition, I literally sang 2 words and they waved their hand and said ok thanks you can leave. I was broken and refused to sing again for almost a year afterwards.
Im so sorry
That's just sad and heart breaking, I'm sorry that happened to you and that you lost your passion for singing for so long
Sorry
Did they even show you in the episode?
:(
This is such a bright, lovely, caring lady and she really didn't deserve to be screwed over like that.
Jonathon Panzera nearly every one of the contestants are, to be honest
Your graceful response is such an inspiration. My abiding memory is of you responding to ‘Oceans’ ... no one could think badly of you after that.
Every blessing to you in your work and for this channel.
You're a brave and gorgeous woman. So much maturity and professionalism in you and that makes you more beautiful.
When Simon said “when you watch this back you’ll realize you showed us a little more than you expected” he meant that her dress rode up... when she got down on her knees it slipped and Demi made a face lol
problem is you don't know that Demi made that face at that moment, more likely that was a face she made at some point on another day or time and they spliced it in.
@@MrNerdSmasher Well it's clear what Simon meant when he said that.
Are you a mind reader ??
Tumi Ralekgetho What can I say, I caught the wavelength man🔮🤷🏼♀️
MrNerdSmasher forreals
That thing with the boy wearing a wire is horrible. I'm so sorry :(
right like how do you even fix that with someone ?💔I would've been so upset
I’m wondering how much they paid him to be a traitor? A person who would stoop so low only needs our prayers. It sure makes you rethink trust though.
Word! I would've been crying had a so-called "friend" done that to me. However, the friend probably didn't get much choice!
@@MoogieB people will do anything for fam
This made me cry a little, you're so strong. I'd love to have someone like you as a vocal teacher.
It made me cried too when the parents stop u from explaining cause they knew who u really are.
Makes me think of this quote Tara. It applies to you.
"Live your life in such a way that if anyone talks bad about you, No One would believe it"
Yes this is really a testament to her character!
I have to admit, I was absolutely fooled by that clip when I saw it, so much that I was actually sceptical whether you were a good singer despite seeing lots of your actions. I did know about shows like this misrepresenting people but I had no idea how badly they screwed you over. Good on you for not letting it get you down!
I feel you. And I totally understand. Don’t worry, your UA-cam videos are so real and you’re so kind and humble and amazing!! We love you!!!
Wow, I am so sorry Tara went through this, I almost cried remembering the moments, when I was mistreated and betrayed. So happy she didnt let this break her! Go, Tara! I respect u more now.
INSTANT respect for being brave enough to share your story. I can only imagine the frustration AND depression of having to explain this to ppl and hoping ppl believe you. Thank you for sharing. ♥️
I learned something more than singing from this video. This is why people should not judge other people based on what they see online. You are a great person Ms. Tara and i learn a lot from your channel. More power!
What they did breaks my heart. I love you, thank you for being yourself.
They BASTARDIZED it 😢
you said it so perfectly
I am so sorry you were hurt like that.
Somehow I'm glad people asked you to react to it because you got the chance to tell people what really happened. Especially that part when the parents and kids you've been coaching showed to you they trust you more than what some TV show made you out to be. I'm so happy for you!
TV shows--whatever they be showing--have scripts. They need it to ensure viewership, and that's a fact that needs to be absorbed by people.
I do not like listening or seeing to myself sing, so I can imagine how you’re feeling😂
You have your no. 1 fan in me.. from the Philippines. I watch all ypur videos. Sometimes, i even watch repeatedly from 8pm till 6am non stop.
Christina Aguilera is my favorite too!
Reality TV is a joke!
4:41 Camila Cabello 😂😂😂OMG who knew she’s gonna be that famous!
And so cancelled lmao
@@shxbrang LMAOO I-
Mika X Drawings her sales, streams and followers only keep growing tho
@@moon-to3rk have you seen her album sales? She has popular radio songs but nobody buys her new album. I loved her first one but I can't support her after this mess
That was when she used to say the N-word every day LOL
"Protect my vocal babies" 😭 God bless you Tara! All the best to you in 2020!
This makes me not want to watch talent shows like this now, I just love you, and your voice is amazing ❤❤❤
You can tell they weren't rolling their eyes durring your performance, because everyone was smiling or clapping while settling down when you went to sit. You can tell they had also just sat down.
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!
You have gotten cuter with age
Stephen O'Brien - You probably brought an apple to your teacher too. I agree though.
harold wilkes I think she’s pretty too :D
You can tell just by her 'sing better in seconds' series, the way she talks n communticate with strangers, how kind she is. She's a gem of a person!
Honestly I did not follow you or your story prior to today. But just hearing you explain your story and what happened to you....I 110% believe you and now know who you are as a person. Good job rising above and helping others!
This Tea is SCALDING!
Thank you Tara for teaching me how to access my high mix belt. You answered me in a livestream ️ ☺️
This is why I don’t like reality shows.
Mike S It is all for ratings/money .
Kudos to you for exposing these fabricated reality shows and coming out it wiser and passing it on to help others. So glad you made this video. You’ve been so helpful to me through your channel. I’m just beginning to learn how to sing. Keep up your positive attitude! Wish we could’ve heard that whole song you sang on X Factor.
I love that u help people later on to go on and not experience what u did!! That's amazing.
I believe you Tara; and thank you for being such a nice person. Wish the world had more kind souls like you. Thanks you for being you👍👍
Reminds me of when Sam Johnson did it several months ago, reacting to himself.
Rosannasfriend haha will have to look that up.
I watched that season like a lot, solely becoz of Britney Spears.
You were one of my favorite artist of that season and I knew you were not that person they created for their show. I always loved ur performance especially when u sang "The Reason" ❤️❤️❤️. Just wanna add that u made that season very fun and entertaining 👍👍👍
I love it that you told your side of this. I didn’t see the episode of X factor & had no idea it had happened & I’m so sorry they do this to ppl. It’s inexcusable. I’ve watched several of your reaction vids and I think they’re wonderful! I enjoy what you do! Keep it up ❤️
Wow... your soul is so beautiful. Notice how she explains her truth to her audience so we can learn from her experience. But she isn’t like these other Channels who used in their title “My experience on the X factor (so fake)” she didn’t use anything for clickbait because that’s not what this is about to her. I’m so happy I subscribed to you 💕
The way they edit these reality shows is so dangerous. That could have caused Tara her livelihood but I am so glad that God shielded her and the real people in her life treated her well based on her actual character.
Hey Tara, I don’t have more than basic knowledge of music but I’m gifted by realizing great things almost in everything (almost!) kind of unconsciously (just don’t know how!!). So, from the first day that I’ve seen your reacting videos, I knew that you are the one as a coach. You are the best among all I’ve seen since 5 years ago.
I just wanted to say Thank you and no one should be on Dimash documentary but you. No one as a coach even realize half of technical tips that you mentioned. He is super talented but also very wise and technically knowledgeable by choosing you.
Thanks for being such a talented nice professional coach.
Be safe and sound.
You are an incredible coach and person. These shows are meant to divide. Like so many other things in our world. You are very well trained and I am in awe of your talent and ability to sing and teach and help others to do be their best. Your “vocal babies”! How sweet! That is the mark of a great person.
Thats terrible how they twisted your answer
4:42 CAMILA CABELLO IN THE BACKGROUND OMG 🥺😍
Lol!
Thanks for sharing your story Tara! Having a media background, I’m not surprised, and I’m glad you had those that knew and supported you around ❤Folks, REALLY READ those NDAs and contracts before you sign them, you’re basically handing over your character for them to make you whatever they want. You can also word things so you’re answering including part of the question and in a way that will be difficult for them to slice it up if you’re quick enough 💪
Greetings from Moscow! I sympathize and empathize. But you are strong and honest, so everything will be fine. God bless you!
I auditioned for a show that never made it past pre production and I remember the contract saying they could edit the footage to show me in any light. It’s sad. Most reality show contracts are like that. The producers seriously don’t understand the repercussions that has on peoples lives.
Darius M. Buckley honestly, people should only go on if they want exposure, regardless if it’s in good or bad light. these shows are so unreliable to get you to become successful
More like they don't care 😩 that's terrible
Lots of life lessons in here! “Lemons into Lemonade”- this is a wonderful lesson in the importance of always trying to remain and conduct yourself in a positive way at all times. I especially loved the moment you said that your friends/students and families knew exactly what had happened because they knew you better than the show tried to portray you. You’re fantastic! 👍🏼
Glad your using your experience to help others! You are definitely not a villain! Love how much you helped other people !
I once heard it said, "You are not who the world thinks you are, you are who YOU KNOW YOU ARE!!" (Thanks for being who you are, Tara!)
Hi Tara!
I have never commented before, but I want to thank you for sharing this. I am a performer who has had some amazing experiences and some not so amazing experiences, but very little experience in the TV world. That was very eye opening to hear about how edits are used to “villainize” certain individuals. I also LOVE that you are, in real life, the humble and kind person, you perceive to be, as you go have all the talent abilities and physical qualities to be a “diva.” I just recently met Voctave during the holiday season and was so warmed that they are just as nice. It makes me so happy to see that people I look up to in the industry are so genuine and loving! Happy new year! I hope to meet you one day!
Oops... “ as you do have all the talent...”
Tara, at 7:46 when Simon says to you, "When you watch that back you're going to see that you showed us a little bit more than you expected", I took that to mean that you may have accidentally flashed them or showed more skin than you were wanting to, like when you sat down at the end or kneeled during the song. You said you didn't know what he meant by that, so I'm just letting you know what I took it as.
or she didn't get stoped and sang longer than she expected
Well, of course she knew, but I don't blame her for wanting to skip past it.
Everyone I was with that watched that episode thought the same thing by the smirk on Simon's face. They purposely made it lurid.
I know you said you don't "need" to set the record straight ... but I absolutely love that you did, that you were honest and that you shared not only the real experience but the response from your mom. Thank you.
Thank God you survived. Your voice is so beautiful with such a rich tone. God bless you 🙏🏾🙏🏾🤗❤️
You made me cry with you at the end Tara, bless your heart.
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.
Thank you for sharing your experience, & more importantly, shedding light on these shows. I feel it’s really important to show the other side of TV.
And for the record.. I thought your singing rocked! You’ve got the most stunning voice!
Much love x
I’m so so sorry you went through that. We as an audience are responsible because we now know that reality shows edit to manipulate and we don’t speak up.
I can’t imagine how hurt you must have been. Especially at a young age where all of us have our insecurities.
You didn’t deserve that and I’m sorry you had to go through that. Although I’m sure the experience made you even stronger and more sensitive.
I hope you’ve healed from it. Wish you all the luck going forward.
Last month I met and spent time with a 1st season contestant from "The Four". She ended up beating Zhavia. The stories she shared with me were horrific and JUST LIKE THE THINGS YOU SAID. I couldn't believe the things they did to her and the other contestants. I felt bad for having believed her to be this person they portrayed on the show. So I TOTALLY BELIEVE YOU. it's BS what they do and it's cruel it needs to be stopped and we need to stop believing these shows. SO sorry for how heart wrenching and shocking this must have been at the time. Thank you for ALL you so freely share with us❤❤❤
Peaches Chrenko That show was so incredibly manipulative. I could tell everyone was being pushed to behave like they were in a dog eat dog world.
If you don’t mind saying, what did they specifically do to the contestants?
@@BbGun-lw5vi don't they chant "Eat! Eat! Eat! "?
You're so strong, beautifull and passionnanted! Im glad you're out there saying the truth behind the scenes and telling your story. Thank you for that :')
That is absolutely how rude how they changed your answer and you “friend”
Knowing that you sang the whole of **THAT** song, with all its dynamic phrasing explains A LOT about why your face is so red by the end of the performance.
This is exactly why Xfactor didnt last as long as American idol
How would you know if American Idol isn't just as bad?
All the shows that are reality singing shows are all like this. It’s disgusting.
I can say from experience that American idol is just as bad. It was a very sketchy experience.
I’m cackling 💀 American Idol, X-Factor, and the “Got Talent” shows all have one main puppeteer, which is Simon himself
I wan on American Idol. It definitely wasn’t as bad as this, but it is scripted sometimes. I found out I’m not good enough of an actor to make it on the show 😂
Tara, you are an inspiration showing us how to sing better. Never let that show bring you down.
I will never watch a reality show again knowing how it has damaged so many people.
That must have been so difficult. I never watched any of those but your faith through the trials is what matters. Wherever their is a desire to gain just for reviews and dollars there is justification from the world. Thanks for the good you do, Tara, a virtual student online 🤗
