Dear Brown Bags To Stardom,
I've watched Brown Bags To Stardom many times before.  It's very interesting to watch all the different variety of music videos from the state's youth, also too see what kind of talent they have to offer.  It gives high school students a chance to show off their creative ability, and musicality.  Brown Bags To Stardom not only makes the high school proud if your video's are shown on the program, but it makes the community proud of their alama mater as well. 
Moanalua High School recently had an outstanding talent show on November 21st and they announced oc16's Brown Bags To Stardom was going to air the Moanalua talent show on Sunday, November 30, 2008 at seven thirty.  I had many friends that performed in the talent show, let alone one of my friends was in the group that won the talent show.  My friends and I waited all week to watch our classmates perform on television, which the whole state would be seeing.  
To come and find out they showed clips of the talent show, I would say two to three minutes of each performance.  The audience who wasn't actually at the talent show wouldn't be able to see the performance the same way we the students saw it.  the talent show performers who's parents were not at the talent show wouldn't be able to see their child's full length performance.  Moanalua wanted to show off our talented student body, but how can we when we are only featured in the show for not even ten minutes?  The talent show performers feel like the audience wasn't able to see the amount of talent they brought forward.  To me I was disappointed, because I felt like the performers didn't get to show their full talent in front of a television audience. 


Sincerely,
Kristy Tamashiro
