I have to say that the last performances of all four finalists were outstanding. They performed with such confidence that their talents were showcased better than any other time this season. Way to go! At the last minute, Ryan Murphy and crew decided to give prizes for the runners up as well. Both Lindsey and Alex will get a two-episode arc character in the show. And Cameron won the fan favorite. I'm looking forward to seeing them on the show this coming season. Their characters will all help make some interesting talks with my teens. Does your teen have acting and singing ability? They can sign up for notification on how to audition for The Glee Project 2 on The Glee Project website. Let us know if they do!
