I stay up till 2 or 3 every night practicing my vocals, I won 2nd place at my school talent show, and most of my family thinks I am a good singer. But my family doesn't have enough money to hire an agent. So what do I do?

First, it is not good for anyone's health to stay up to 2 or 3 even for good things, if they are only getting a few hours sleep.

First you are practicing your vocals, so do you take voice and music lessons, that is the first thing, since practice if not done properly can actually teach you wrong tech that can be hard to unlearn latter.

So you need to learn to read music, and learn breath and breathing control. Then work on tone and pitch

From there you sing, harder at 13, but there are family friendly coffee houses that do open mike nights, or will book non professions to sing. You then start posting things on U tube,

And you keep singing any and every place you can, will you ever be real famous, who knows, can you make a living as a singer if you work hard, yes.

Do you want to be famous or do you want a career as a singer? For every famous singer there are dozens who earn a living but don't become famous.

If fame is all you want make a video and put it on You Tube.

Just an idea. Have you heard of the America's got Talent show. Record a video of yourself singing and submit it to their website. The prize is $1,000,000, but there's a lot of competition. Even if you don't win, usually if you make a good impression someone may notice you. Plus it's FREE to enter!

I think I'm a good singer but I'm not posative... I love all the "populair" songs and stay up with the most resents and top ten to twenty... I am 11 years old and I would do anything to be or have fame. I love music with all my heart and I was singing in the car to my iPod one day and my dad was surprised how good I was but I didn't really think about it twice until I saw how much the world of music has changed and gotten better and better by the years I love music my name is MacKenna and if there are any music producers out there I would be willing to do anything to have a chance at music or acting because I'm a really good actress but I like singing more but I am confident and willing to change to be the best(: please someone comment this is my dream and I hope it will be for a while with your help I promis you won't regret it

Thank you, MacKenna <3 ***~~~ I <3 music~~~***

Wow! That's a really great idea do I just go to the web site? I'm only 11 I need all the help I can

[lalala1]

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's what you do. I don't know if they are still accepting entries because the season is about to start. You can still try though. Also it doesn't matter how old you are on there. I've seen 4 year olds perform and get to the next round. It just matters if you have talent or not.
