 Breanna Fuss of Forest Lake is hoping that an online talent contest “Big Shot Live” will lead to stardom.
The 17-year old earned a free trip to California last month, receiving enough votes after a dance performance video of her was posted on the Web. The contest has seven talent categories for participants to choose from. Her sister, Ashlee, is also competing as a singer as well.
“Honestly, it was just for fun,” Fuss said, of the contest. “I’ve been dancing for 15 years so it’s something that has always been a part of my life.”
Forest Lake dancer Breanna Fuss is competing in Big Shot Live, the first-ever national online talent search. She enrolled in the Saint Paul Conservatory for Performing Artists after attending her freshman year at Century Junior High School.
