Over 75,000 Applicants: 14th Annual Performing Arts

Championships To Be An Olympian Event On Global Scale

(Hollywood, California)—Hundreds of singers, dancers, jugglers, you name it will be ready to strut their stuff for the judges at the 14th Annual World Championships of Performing Arts, set to take center stage July 17 – 25, 2010 in Los Angeles, California. This international meet is often cited as the official “Talent Olympics” for aspiring performers and entertainers, and the only event of its kind held annually in “Hollywood”, the entertainment capital of the world.

Selections for official contestants will be held in the U.S., Canada, Caribbean, Central and South America, Europe, Asia and South Africa. “Contestants from over 40 countries will ultimately participate,” says Griff O’Neil, competition president and a former executive of the Miss Universe Pageant, “vying for ‘the gold’ PLUS $50,000 in scholarships awarded by the Conservatory of Dramatic Arts for Film and Television in New York.”

A popular highlight of the festivities is the spectacular Opening Ceremonies featuring a colorful Parade of Nations on Sunday, July 18. The exciting finals will be staged at the beautiful California Grand Ballroom at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel on Friday evening, July 23, and hosted by actor/comedian David Beach.

With shows like “American Idol” and “Dancing with the Stars” vying for face time on TV, it’s no wonder that there’s such a proliferation of talent looking for a home. The talent shows score some of the biggest audience ratings and their renewed popularity has made the World Championships more relevant than ever.

“Some 75,000 people around the world will apply to participate in 2010,” adds O’Neil.

To help process the talent, the veteran entertainment producer has recruited over 75 Scouts and National Directors who are currently scouring the globe for potential talent. “This is the only truly Olympic-style talent competition ever created,” he says. “We’ve been planting seeds for the past fourteen years and are now ready to really show off our spectrum of talent, in both junior and adult divisions.”

There are six categories of competition and over one hundred judges from the entertainment industry will be involved before the main prizes are awarded – “gold” medals, official World Champion trophies and plaques, scholarships to the Conservatory for Film and Television in New York, and the top prizes of all… the coveted titles “Junior and Senior Grand Champion Performers of the World”! However every contestant is a “Worldstar winner”… the networking opportunities are inestimable, the competition experience is beyond belief, accurate information about the industry is obtained through invaluable educational seminars, and the friendships made with talent throughout the world are priceless!

Included in the competition categories are dance, vocal, modeling, acting, instrumental and variety arts. Each “act” is allowed 60 seconds to showcase their skills in the final competition.

Priceless entertainment industry educational workshops are conducted during the week exclusively for the participants. Because of its stellar reputation in attracting achieving talent, fifteen (15) VIP and celebrity entertainment industry greats from Hollywood, Nashville and New York will serve as judges for the finals at the prestigious global competition.

Previous judges have included:

Mehcad Brooks (Hollywood) – Brooks currently stars on Alan Ball’s HBO hit TV series True Blood. He is a SAG ensemble award winner and Image Award nominee for his performance as Alfre Woodard’s son on ABC’s smash series Desperate Housewives.

He currently has two projects making their way to Broadway.

Two entertainment industry icons were honored and inducted into the Performing Arts Hall of Fame at the 2009 world meet’s exciting Opening Ceremonies:

For the third consecutive year, a vocalist from the Philippines, 12-year old Rhap Salazar won the 2009 Junior Grand Champion Performer of the World title. And it should be noted that this is the fourth Grand Champion Performer winner from the Philippines as Aria Clemente captured the 2007 Junior crown, Catherine Loria bested all others for the 2008 Junior top spot, and Jed Madela won the Senior title in 2005.

Joe Robinson from Australia seized the 2009 Senior Grand Champion Performer of the World award making it the second time an Aussie has grabbed the revered Senior trophy!

After all is said and done, talent competitions are nothing new. Everyone from Frank Sinatra to Patsy Cline to Britney Spears has been discovered on talent contests.

Talent contest judges initially rejected some well-known stars, like Elvis Presley, Buddy Holly and Drew Carey.

The genre’s been around on radio and later on TV for nearly 70 years, but the World Championships of Performing Arts is by far the biggest in scale and scope.
