Starting this
October, Radio Disney’s
Next Big Thing
(N.B.T.) is back for its fifth season with new mentors and bigger
prizes. On
N.B.T., promising teen
singers will showcase their talent and battle it out to win the most votes. The
winner will not only be the opening act for the finale concert in Los Angeles,
but will also get to perform on
Austin
& Ally and release a single with Disney Music Group.
Five different acts
will be competing this season. And this year, each will not only showcase their
own singles for the public, but will also perform a popular cover song, too!
Throughout the
season, we’ll all be able to get a behind-the-scenes look as contestants work
with mentors like Cher Lloyd, Ross Lynch and Laura Marano. But before things
get started, we wanted to give you a sneak peek at these budding stars. Read on
to get a glimpse at their real lives through these adorable video diaries and
be sure to tune in to Radio Disney Friday, Oct. 12 and during the
Disney Channel premiere of Girl Vs.
Monster for the start of the competition.
