Hey guys, Jackie's mother, Lisa, e-mailed me through my website to tell me about her. She has an album out in November She is just nine years old, and I think you guys might like her. She has only been singing for 18 months. Here is a video of her singing 'O Mio Babbino Caro' acapella (I think she was eight there). www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnQ-e1wU0wQYou can visit her official site: www.jackieevancho.org/Which links to her Myspace and Youtube channel, etc.

Hi Nicola,
Thanks for that. I really enjoyed that and some more of her video's. She seems to be entering a lot of talent competitions I hope they don't push her to hard.

I always worry about that with children. But I spoke to her mother, and I think Jackie is quite strong minded, i.e. she's doing this for herself and knows what she wants (like Hayley did)
She also is not pushing her voice, so Jackie always sings softly (like that OMBC video).
Other than that, I generally share the same concerns as you about child singers.

You will find quite often it's the child who wants to do the competitions and not the parents pushing, Hayley did plenty she turned out ok here is jackie singing River of Dreams www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rg0hNMQXijo

Hey guys, Jackie was given an amazing opportunity to perform with David Foster (I trust you guys know the name!) last Saturday. At nine years old, watch her come out completely unfazed and give an amazing performance of 'To Where You Are': EDIT: Found a better quality video www.youtube.com/watch?v=SArrdynWzz8&feature=related

Hey guys! Jackie has been selected by America's Got Talent on there online competition to perform in front of the judges (televised). To do this, little Jackie needs some votes. Go here: www.youtube.com/agt click on the voting gallery tab at the top of the page, and click on Jackie's video. You can then vote for her. She's the little girl with blonde pony tail. There's a dull green background to her thumbnail. You can vote once a day. x

I hope she doesn't go on. America's Got Talent is widely seen as a freak show and the singers who do well never go anywhere afterwards. Instead of being path to getting discovered it's the road to being forgotten about or lumped in with all the crazy stuff that makes the show an attraction in the first place. Jackie will do well in the years to come if her talent hold up, but she would being shooting herself in the foot if she receives exposure on this show.
