Is it just me, or is this really funny? Hahaha. Hmmm...over 13 years old, check. Can dance, check. Can sing, check. Can act...ok, 3 out of 4, that's not so bad. Pwede na.
Joke lang, hindi ako mag-au-audition. :p Besides, I don't think I can pass for a high school student. But then again, John Travolta and the rest of the Grease cast were in their 30s, right? Then again (again)...it's just too cheesy. Di ko makakayanan hehe.
