So let’s talk about something that bugs me, entertainment companies that put an age restriction on those who audition. I’m sure you’ve heard about the YG audition that’s going on in
Korea,
New York, & LA. While I was reading the flyer I noticed that for singers the age qualification is 11-19 years old….WTF? I mean I’m pretty damn sure there are plenty of talented singers over the age of 19.
Now, I can understand that being a trainee can take a few years depending on the person and how rough around the edges they are. I also understand that “idol age” is pretty young because they have to cater to a certain demographic but still, that’s discrimination. To be honest not all the idols are THAT talented. I could think of other people who might be better singers or actors.
