Daughter of Belizean in Star Search finals

She may not have made a feature film, but eleven-year-old Lisa Tucker, the American born daughter of a Belizean mother, is well on her way to a big career. Last night the young stage actress sang her way into the finals of the popular televised competition, Star Search. Here’s how it went.

Arsenio Hall, Host

“Now singing Whitney Houston’s hit, “Didn’t we almost have it all”, here is Lisa Tucker.”

“That gives Lisa eighteen stars, remember that’s only half of it all, America controls the other half of this all important semi-final score…Right now Lisa has eighteen, Kailey sixteen, Lorelei has seventeen. But that’s only the score from you all, we’ve got the other half that came from America, they’ve been doing their thing online. And the digit master must ask Glen now to play them funky digits white boy, let me see it. The winner is with thirty-two stars, Lisa, congratulations Lisa.”

Lisa will appear in the finals next Thursday when she has a chance to win a hundred thousand dollar performing contract, along with a whole lot of publicity.
