Vegas' Got Talent | Started by: Zeitgeist on Apr 26, '15 19:40 |
*Zeitgeist sat by the pool of his Las Vegas Hotel and Resort and reflected back on how things had been going thus far. It hadn't been the easiest transition from the frantic and cool big apple to a very hot Las Vegas, but all things considered it had been a pretty productive month; but something was missing...*
Ladies and Gentleman, a casino is more than the tables and slots these days, it's more than the $10,000 a night Villa's or the 5 star restaurants and clubs. Entertainment is the order of the day, providing something exceptional to get the people through your door rather than your neighbors. It is something our resort is lacking, and the search for talent begins today.
We will be hosting auditions to be our headlining performer at Imaginarium Resort and Casino, the winner will receive a lucrative contract to perform on our stage to thousands.
The format will be very similar to how many talent shows are run, you don't need to sign necessarily, you can dance, rap, do magic or whatever you think will captivate our attention. The prize will be 50 credits but there is also a bonus incentive. The competition entries can be submitted in RP form (To be posted in this thread) where you "perform for us" which would make it a writing competition.
Entries are also able to be submitted in Video format, and should you choose to submit your entry in this format and be declared the winner you will be eligible for a bonus 25 credit prize.
*Zeitgeist chuckles to himself*
Looking forward to your applications. |

Katra got to the auditions rather early it seemed. There didn't seem to be anyone around. So she looked around for Zeitgeist to get her audition over with. Her palms were sweaty and she was slightly nervous. "Excuse me Sir. There doesn't seem to be a lot of people currently auditioning for being a performer. I'd like to be the first." She paused momentarily as if to take a few breaths to prepare herself. Katra hated to be the center of attention but she really wanted to try out her story. "I'll be reciting a story about my mother, Zephyra. It's called This Way Evil Comes." Katra began the story in hopes that it would be impressive enough to be considered entertaining. "Zephyra had made a name for herself back in her home land. She was spoken of only in whispers. Her name brought fear to those that had knew there was a price on their heads, because she would do anything for a nice sum. She had spent her time as a young child perfecting the use of her knives. And when knives were not easiest she learned how to handle a gun. After years of assassinations in her own country she received a message for a bigger challenge in America. Quickly she settled up her affairs before boarding the boat. There was nothing left unfinished in the old country so she could look forward to more work in the new country. It would take a good few weeks before she arrived. Once Zephyra arrived on the shores of America, she soon found her Chicago. The correspondence told her to meet Samual Block at the diner on Grimmel Road. So she quickly headed off to find a motel that would ask no questions. She showered and got dressed. She wore her black pants and the matching black sweater. Throwing on her black boots and gathering up her purse she was ready for the meeting. Zephyra strolled through Chicago. It was a city she heard so much about and almost felt like she knew it inside and out. Perhaps not the streets though because she found herself a bit lost. Spotting a young lad she stopped him momentarily.
Having finished the story Katra handed Zeitgeist her application and a written copy of the story. "Thank you for listening to me." Katra gathered her things and headed away. It would probably be some time before she heard back since auditions didn't end until May 3rd. |

Irina hears news of a talent contest out of Las Vegas. She loved talent contests! She headed for the airport to catch a flight out. Once she arrived, although very nervous, she made her way to the event. "Good evening ladies and gents! I have prepared a song for you this evening. I must tell you that sadly, it is not an original composition. I own nothing except for a few word changes. I hear that credit goes to some Fresh Prince guy, though I've never met him, the original song is lovely and quite catchy. I hope that you enjoy it."
Now this is a story all about how my life got flipped turned upside down and I'd like to take a minute just sit right there I'll tell you how I became a thug in a town called New York. In West Mother Russia born and raised in the coldlands is where I spent most of my days, bundled up, huddled up, staying real cool drinkin some vodka outside the school when a couple of guys who were up to no good were making mobster moves in my neighborhood. I did one little job and mom got mad she said you're movin to America with your cousin Vlad. I arrived off the boat and it became clear, my cousin was working for the mafia here. It's crazy my mom thought that this land was rare, cause I was gonna do what I'd done back there. I met up with Ivan in this brand new land, I worked real hard and he made me a hand. I work with the people, I'm putting in hours enjoying my life in this thing of ours. |

After fixing his earlier problem with his pronunciation and appearance, Yoritomo tries again. He grabs a pamphlet from his pocket and reads aloud:
Tyler is the bastard's name refuses to be tame prefers to shoot people to ashes
Will you look into the face of Fear? Is it so ugly it will bring a tear? What we know for sure is that The results will be severe
Rose from the ashes The Detroit Curse Some kind of voodoo?
Executing people on the streets giving haters a feast Goodfellas from old a story better not told?
Zeitgeist is a modern man but still old school enough thought he was a twat now one of the best leaders I've had
Of Reverend I do not know a lot supposedly a servant of God Quiet man on the streets his pockets he feeds
Knight of God keeps his city strong his sword is heavy and long Will his metal bum protect him against a gun?
Man in plastic proclaims quite bombastic about the power of the force still copied from another source
Guy I do not know In LA he runs a show
Was a bounty on his head Tyler tried with his lead Does the pain go away when you use heroin
supposed to have a huge forehead See him so little I tend to forget When I do see him though I grin
You could call him Supreme leader not much humor Likes to use an expletive perhaps a bit sensitive?
Short in size huge in character Tyrion Lannister
A rock Doesn't say all that much But then again its just stone boring and slow
A doctor he claims to be picked up those from Cuba or is he just a Cyka?
Thinks he is the great Che Now he is passé
A communist with that name? Guy likes to play the game Soon he will be father of his district future is optimistic
Another Russian lesser known calls Manhattan is home was better off in the gulag
Who is this guy I don't see him in the streets scarred skin and sunken eyes quietness applies
Lady coming from a song life's been prosperous and long want to start a secret clique? Swear the other Trixie won't be there.
Name is not really correct but 't was expected history shown it's been done before better not repeat it more
Don't like eggs all that much but I'll make an exception for the Dutch
Be careful of your pockets or it might be war take a pro hide a ho Loves his camels a lot comprehensible his family name is not
I guess he likes to lynch or be lynched perhaps a little unhinged? |

Gollum crawls out from behind the alley way. Staring blankly at the judges waiting for the first sound of a breath to give him the go ahead to start his audition. Slowly his eyes start looming in to those of the judges. When they give him the nod Gollum begins to speak. Good evening good evening. If i were able to have my own show at the wonderful-glorious-beautiful-majestic-Imaginarium Resort and Casino it would be a lot of non stop action. At times i would dance for people. Gollum glares at the dj before he busts out his epic dance moves. Cue the music stupid fat dj. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_nA7dVcUs0U When Gollum finishes dancing he looks out and grins widely. Sometimes the crowd will get a taste of an Epic Rap battle of me versus well...ME! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hs4Ma7J0cyg When Gollum finishes his rap battle against himself he decides to set the mic down. Taking off his excess gold chains that he seems to wear when he decides to rap for no apparent reason, Gollum then rushes to the forward of the stage. Thankyou Thankyou for letting me get this chance to become the biggest sensation of LAS VEGAS Imaginarium Resort and Casino. I will make sure the show is accessible to all in the fine district and make sure i am consistently bringing New Yorkers through Vegas to enjoy the show and all other pleasures that Vegas has to offer. Gollum bows and immediately scales the wall off into his dressing room waiting for the final announcements. |

Katra will win this one hands down if we can consider sending people to sleep a talent. 2nd Prize goes to Minamoto for the ability to make a poem that rhymes, sometimes. |

Happy with his predicted 2nd prize, Yoritomo suddenly realizes that there isn't a second prize. He quietly breaks down in tears. |

Katra slipped back in for another audition. This one would probably not make sense but it humored her to deliver it anyways. "This one is titled: Amusing Mafia." With a chuckle she began reading her original works. "There once was a Godfather. He was somewhat of a bother. His Right Hand Used to be in a band.
He authed an old Don Who made everyone yawn. His pretty bold suit Didn't make him very cute.
His biggest hitter Had a nervous twitter. His biggest earner Forgot to turn off the burner.
The HQ went up in flames But nobody was there to blame. Someone else rebuilt And wrapped everyone under a quilt.
Success! Dat bum's swimmin' with da fishes." She left the audition stage and took a chair in the back to see the other auditions. |

Walking over to a random spot, he pulls out a piece of paper, from where exactly, no one can entirely be sure, and then proceeds to squat while a light spraying can be heard by everyone in the area. After the paper is completely soaked, he stands up and walks away, but not before whispering a few simple words to the people in attendance. "Art. I'd understand if I don't win, you probably just don't get it." Without another word the Shark leaves the drenched item behind, he had made a statement this day. ...maybe? |

Good Evening Folks
Sorry for the long delay but some of the judges were away and took a while to review the entrants.
After votes were cast by all 3 judges and some discussions held between myself and one of the judges in particular.
Two entries stood out, we were able to identify a winner quite easily, but another entrant was literally so close behind we felt that it was horribly unfair that she would receive nothing for her efforts.
After discussing the matter with the 1st place winner, we have agreed to split the purse.
With 50 credits going to the winner......
IrinaPetrov! For what we felt was a truly awesome performance.
with 25 credits going to our first runner up
Katra! For a truly amazing entry.
Thank you so much to all the other entrants, your hard work and effort was appreciated by the judges. |
