It seems like so many things are happening very quickly all of a sudden! I am really going on a lot of auditions and meeting so many people. While I was at my movie call back yesterday, my manager called mom and said that ABC wanted me back for two more episodes of One Life To Live! Wow, that is so great! I will be  a freshman at a country club. No speaking part yet, but putting in my dues first! It is so cool that they asked for me to return by my name!! Then we heard that I will be sending in an audition on reel for a new sitcom on Disney! I went and taped that this afternoon. The guy at the studio said I nailed it and he thought it was a good job. I am so excited! If I get the full feature film role, I will be shooting inthe Bahamas during August! Who wouldn't want that, right?

I still miss you guys very much and think of you all the time. I know the school year is al most over and with it ending I am both sad and happy. I want to come home for the 8th grade graduation if I can. I will miss you all!

I should hear about the JCPenney shoot tomorrow, and I am working on a Music / Art Print ad late tomorrow afternoon, and then with my vocal coach for Broadway. I really like her, she is teaching me so much about music and true singing.

Well, leave me comments! I love hearing from all of you so much! It means so much to me to know that you are thinking of me and praying for me. I pray for you daily as well.

Shine On! Taybo

PS: Mrs McB and Jake I miss you guys!!!!!!

Hey, hey, hey everybody!! So good to have time to blog!! Haha! I have been so so so busy, but that's a good thing! I think the last audition that I posted about was febreeze. I have had a lot a bigger ones since then.  I have had a Powerade, JCPenney, which I don't know if I got it yet, I taped an episode of One Life to Live, Pizza Hut, which I didn't get.

I have had one workshop. That was really fun! I am also working with brodway and vocal coaches.

I got to try out for a movie role!!!! WOO-HOO!! That's what I want to do. I want to be in film. Then, to make it better, I got a callback for the film! They said they loved me!! I went to my callback today, and they talked to my dad about going to the Bahamas (that's where it will shoot). They said that they don't know if I got it yet, but they said I was in the running! WHICH IS HUGE!!! AHHHHH!! I should know if I get it in a few weeks.

I just wanna thank you guys so so so much for praying for me at school!! You guys are so special to me! That means so much that you would stop what you were doing and pray. Thanks again guys.

Well thats all for now! Ta Ta for now!!!

Love-Tay

 

Well, today we did nothing but school. I did lots of Geometry, finished some Biology, studied Bible, and worked on some Geography. Woo Hoo! Actually, I feel pretty good about staying so caught up this trip.  That one was for you Mr Cox!

The callbacks have not been put out yet for the febreeze commercial. I hope that still works out. I love what I am doing!

The Bermuda Triangle used to be square until Chuck Norris kicked a corner off of it!

Be Yourself and don't apologize for it! - Tay

Hey guys! What's up?? Today was fun. I did some biology! Woo-Hoo!! Heh He. Not. Anyway, after that I went to my febreeze audition. It was fun. Then, my dad and I walked 20 blocks in the rain just for fun! I love walking in the rain!! So much fun! I think I did really good.

Guess what!? My commercial is starting to show!! I saw it twice already! This is so cool!

I was teaching my mom the hoedown throwdown!! That was very scary!!! My eyes still burn! Haha! Just kidding mom!

Ta Ta for Now!! Tay

Hey everybody! I'm back in NYC!! I'm so happy to be here! So far I have had an audition for a nick earth hour voice over. That was fun. I actually did the audition in Friendsville, Maryland on a Methodist church parking lot. Haha! I got a call and my manager said to call in as soon as possible. So I did. I didn'd get the audition though. Kinda stinks. Anyway, I did get a spot on One Life to Live!!! Ahhhhh!! This is so awesome! It's not a recurring role and I'm just a family member, but this opens so many doors. I get to meet the whole crew and the director.  Not sure when it's supposed to air, but I will keep you posted. On Monday I have an audition for a febreeze commercial. That should be fun!!

Oh, I didn't do to much today because, a dresser drawer fell on my toes! OUCH!! It hurt so bad! I have a huge bruise on my big toe! I didn't even know that you could get a bruise there, but I sure did!!

Ok now, instead of giving shout-outs this time around, I am putting Chuck Norris Facts. He is so awesome!!

Love, Tay

Hey Everyone! I am sorry I haven't posted lately. I have really been having fun just being home with my family and friends. I was only home for a couple of days before I caught that stomach virus, ugh! I missed two days of school and then it was spring break! Bummer! Oh well, I never thought I would say that I was glad to stay home for spring break; but, this is one time I am glad to be in Bowling Green, KY for spring break!!

I heard the Lenscrafters commercial will start airing on April 20th. It is a national campaign, so it should run on all the major networks. It is really exciting. I hope you guys get to see it.

We will be going back to NYC soon to work on new stuff. More about that later...... I am excited about going back and working on more projects, but I wish I could take all you guys with me!! Wow, now that would be a party!!

My shout out today goes to my friend, Carol Davis. I got to see her today for the first time in a long time!

Smile a lot today! - taybo

 Hey guys! I just wrote my blog and it *poof*, so I'm not gonna write it all over again. About all I said is that I joined an acting class and I loved it!! The kids are super nice!! I hope I can make some good friends up here. And the other thing is that I am waiting to hear from T-Mobile to see if I got the job.

Keep us in your prayers!! Oh, and check out my bro's site. He just added alot of new pictures. They are really funny!

Love, T 

Wow! I had so much fun shooting the commercial for Lenscrafters yesterday! I am sorry I didn't post on my blog last night, but I went to bed as soon as I got home! I got up at 4:00 am and was on the set or in the studio for 12 hours! All for just a 30 second commercial! Even though I was tired, it was so much fun! The first thing we did was to shoot on a soccer field. The field was at the base of the Williamsburg Bridge on the river! It was soooo cold. The wind was blowing across the field from the river and we were in soccer uniforms with shorts on! Then, the director moved me to another part of the field to film some close up shots of my hands, still in my uniform and freezing! Then we went to a street scene with some other actors, then a restaurant scene and met more actors, then went to an apartment scene where they shot a birthday party, then back to the studio to shoot the rest of the day. I think they plan on making more commercials with all the scene shoots.

While I was shooting for Lenscrafters yesterday, I got a call telling me that I got a call back for the T-Mobile part. This is really exciting because it is a Spike TV promo called, True Dads. T-Mobile sponsors the spot. At first I was worried about auditioning for Spike TV because of some of the shows they air, but once I found out what it was for, I was ok with it. The spot promotes what a true dad is; inspiring fathers to be more involved with their kids, spend more time with them, and talking to them more about things. It is hard for me to understand what other kids go throuugh sometimes, because my dad and I are so close. He is always there for me! Anyway, it is really a neat spot. Spike TV is part of Viacom which owns Nick, MTV, and others. This part could be really important for me in a lot of ways, but more importantly it is a very positive message that needs to be heard. It is my chance to be a part of something positive, which could change hearts and lead others to Christ.

Because of scheduling, I had to skip the Target shoot! Bummer, but I could not get to all of the places on time! They said they would use me again and it would not be a problem.

Well, I gotta go do some school work and then go to my call back! Thanks for praying for me and looking at my blog.

I think we are coming home for the weekend!! YEAH, I can't wait to see you guys!

My shout out goes to WKU Basketball team! Woo-hoo, way to go guys!

Love ~ Taybo

 

 

Hey everyone! I'm having a ton of fun, but I am super homesick! I mean really homesick. I really miss all my family and friends. I think I am doing great up here!! I am shooting a commercial for Lens Crafters tomorrow!! The good thing is that they loved my outfit so much, that I am wearing that outfit for the shoot! I do have to wear some glasses in the commercial. Today, I went on an audition for T-Mobile. I have got a really good feeling about that one! I really liked te casting director. I hope I get that job!

Anyhoo, (I really don't like it when people use that word. I'm not being mean, but it just gets under my skin. Haha!) we walked alot today. Then, dad took me to this store with a whole bunch of jewelry. It was so cool! I saw some rings that remined me of what Tay A would wear. :-) I actually got 2 pairs of ray-ban type, retro 80's sunglasses from that store. One pair has a red front and one side is blue and the other is white. The other pair has a white front and pink sides. They are so awesome! I wanna start collecting that kind of glasses.

I really do miss you guys! I'm not lying! Please leave me comments telling me what's going on at home.

Keep praying! Love, Tay

P.S to Jake- That is so awesome that you disected that! I can't believe Mrs. Mcb



 

Hey guys!! What's up? Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Haha! I am really getting homesick since I got my webcam. I can see my cousins, my grandma and grandpa, and my class. I really miss you guys! I'll be ok. Anyway, great news, I got put on hold for a photoshoot for Target on Tuesday and Wednesday! I am so excited!! I hope I get to do it! That's all I got for this week so far.

Today, we went to Coney Island. All I can say is, wow. I dont know if it was the frozen tundra weather, the creepy million year old carnival, or the guard dog and his watchman. Just for the record, the man was scarier than the dog. Then, he screamed out in this really weird, gruff voice "See ya in the summer!" All I could think of was "No, you probably won't" Haha! On the bright side, I got a hot dog. The bad news is, my hot dog looked like a finger. It had a concave area that looked like a finger nail could grow out of it!! It was so gross!!! You can describe Coney Island in three words; dirty, gross, and finger-dogs. I will never go back there again!!

I really do miss you guys! Keep praying!

My shout out goes to my pappy! To: ST From: Little ST
