Becca's (the-second-star-totheright) Story

10

SEASON 1

Bryce Ross-Johnson: We didn’t meet him much but he did show me that it’s really okay to be me. I liked him even though we didn’t really get to know him.

Ellis Wylie: Ellis taught me to be true to me and let what makes me different show. Sure she looked younger than everyone else, but it never let her stop her. And I give her major props for her first kiss being on camera that takes BALLS.

Emily Vásquez: Sass and a bag of chips man! She showed me that sexy is everywhere and that I don’t have to be ashamed of myself. And also, her Vulnerability story was one of the hardest to hear and she got through it and realized her true self-worth. That girl will make it one day. I know she will.

McKynleigh Abraham: So this is something I got from her after TGP ended. She came out to the world I think a few months ago and when she did she said this “I’m not afraid anymore.” Those are some of the most powerful words. It’s inspiring when someone can finally overcome their fear and you can watch. It shows how strong they are.

Matheus Fernandes: Oh Matheus. You big soul. Matheus has such a great heart. He didn’t let anyone get him down, even when they tried. That perseverance is so cool and so sweet and it’s brave to think like that. He rocks.

Marissa von Bleicken: My princess Marissa. I love this girl too much. She is so strong. She got over a terrible eating disorder and is just so sweet and dedicated and I just can’t even say enough about her. To overcome something that hard and horrible takes a lot of strength and power and self-worth and she just rocks. Nobody can tell me otherwise sorry.

Cameron Mitchell: Cameron. I love Cameron. He just makes me smile. He taught me to stay true to me. If I’m faced with a situation that is tough and I have to go with what means the most to me and what feels right in my gut. It took guts to do what he did, and we know he did it out of the trueness of his soul. Yeah it broke all of our hearts, but gosh his EP is still phenomenal am I right?

Hannah McIalwain: Hannah makes me happy. That’s all I can say. She’s so positive and fun! If I’m having a bad day, thinking of Hannah’s attitude makes me giggle and happy. She’s just a little bucket of joy.

Alex Newell: Be Unique. Don’t let anyone else tell you not to be. I don’t think I need to say more than that. His actions speak louder than words.

Lindsay Pearce: Oh my precious Lindsay. I really do look up to Lindsay because I see myself in Lindsay. She has so much drive and passion for her craft and career. The girl is a firecracker who won’t let anyone hold her back. Some people think she can come off as a bitch, but I think that she is inspiring. I love her.

Damian McGinty: Baby Damian. He makes me feel like a proud mama. His love for everyone and everything in his life is so special and it helps me realize how important having a support system really is. He’s just a very special person who will do amazing things in life.

Samuel Larsen: I was so happy when I found out he won. Samuel has worked so hard to get where he is and he is even still on Glee! His voice is INCREDIBLE and I think he deserves everything he gets. And his relationship with his girlfriend is perfect and I want a Samuel Larsen.
