“Holding auditions in front of an audience is testing.” — Simon Cowell Quote

Holding auditions in front of an audience is testing.

If I had one dog, I'd want a hundred. If I had one kid, I'd probably want a hundred. I mean, it's just the way I am.

There's no need for me to get married. I live with someone; we're happy; end of story.

Sometimes when you have a record out, you think you're going to go in at No. 1 but you go in at No. 8. So your second record has to be better. That's how I treat it.

The object of this competition is not to be mean to the losers but to find a winner. The process makes you mean because you get frustrated.

I would go to different production houses everyday for auditions and they would reject me saying you cant talk, smile, dance, or act.

You can over-think things. If the script's good, everything you need is in there. I just try and feel it and do it honestly. I also don't learn things for auditions, because I feel like it's just a test of memorising rather than being real.

As far as Pranutan is concerned, she never used the family name to get in. She bagged her first film after giving auditions.

I went to a few really bad commercial auditions because I needed the money, and when you booked a commercial, your life was made: you could eat.
